Ryan Reynolds once stated why one of his superhero movies failed to become a hit at the box office. The actor had explained why Green Lantern turned out to be a disappointment.
Ryan Reynolds has acted in a lot of superhero movies. It's not every time that he was the lead, and it's not always that his movies were a hit.

Ryan Reynolds about Green Lantern
We are very close to witnessing what goes next in the life of Wade Wilson aka the skilled swordsman Deadpool, in Deadpool & Wolverine. However back when the antihero was about to see a sharp escalation, its actor Ryan Reynolds shared a few reasons that had made the 2011 movie, Green Lantern a disappointment.
While talking to Mumbai Mirror, back in 2016, the Free Guy actor opened up, sharing some facts. Discussing his views, Reynolds stressed that he wouldn't have got a chance to do Deadpool if his 2011 movie had become a hit.
Shedding light on why that film did not impress the fans, The Adam Project actor stated that a movie's fate is all based on the scripts.
Further opening up, the actor added that for Green Lantern, the production had over 150 script writers and that none of these writers were planning to make it a flop.
However, adding to his words, Ryan Reynolds mentioned that the Studio system works a bit differently. “They make movies based on a poster and an idea,” the actor stated, adding that they first need to have a script and then plan on to make it even much better.
The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard actor further went on to add that sometimes studios just give everyone a release date and ask every writer to go and come up with a script. He also stated that throwing too much money and forcing people to come up with a great plot is not how things work for a quality film.
