If you've ever wondered what Grand Theft Auto looked like in real life, then you'll probably find yourself wanting to explore the very, very weird world of Disney's Free Guy - whenever it finds its way back to the big screen, that is.

Starring Ryan Reynolds in what is probably the most Ryan Reynolds film he'll ever be in (other than Deadpool, of course), this sci-fi action comedy is set inside a virtual video game in which one of the non-player characters (Reynolds) gets bored playing the innocent victim day-in and day-out. It then follows him as he unsuspectingly takes control of his own video game (becoming a player, if you will), discovering what the other side of this bizarre, colorful world is like.

With some impressive visuals, witty dialogue, Reynolds at his best and a fantastic supporting cast consisting of Jodie Comer, Joe Keery, Lil Rel Howery, Utkarsh Ambudkar and Taika Waititi, the Shawn Levy-directed Free Guy looks like it could be one of the most entertaining films of the year. And it'll finally get its chance to take that title when its released in December.
