Ryan Reynolds Says Disney Wants A ‘Free Guy’ Sequel

While many complain about the lack of original content out there, the irony is that when one hits, let’s use Fast and the Furious as an example, it leads to sequels, spinoffs, and so forth to become just another franchise. And that’s what is about to happen to Free Guy, the Ryan Reynolds-led video game flick that is winning over audiences and critics alike. Reynolds has confirmed on Twitter that Disney is anxious to do a sequel…

Free Guy did indeed start off as original IP set up at 20th Century Fox but became part of the Disney family after the studio’s acquisition. We got some pretty cool cameos out of it, too, although I suspect if the move had never happened Reynolds probably would’ve suited up as Deadpool, or perhaps Hugh Jackman as Wolverine?
