Most movie premieres are divided amongst fans all the actors in the cast. For Buried, it was all about Ryan Reynolds. When the film premiered in Austin at Fantasic Fest, fans waited outside the Paramount Theater with Buried memorabilia for Reynolds to sign, some even with early Green Lantern pictures. He signed for all his fans and then answered questions on the red carpet.
CraveOnline: How long would you go in the box at a time?
Ryan Reynolds: Gosh, it’s kind of a sliding scale. Towards the end I was in it all the time because it took too long to get me in and out of it. There was so much debris in there by that point. So yeah, the last day, I got out maybe only two times the whole day.
CraveOnline: Is this a dream role or a nightmare?
Ryan Reynolds: I think it’s a little bit of both. It’s a dream-mare if that makes any sense. It was both the best case scenario and kind of the worst. It was one of those movies that was so awful to film but is so not proportionate to the reaction afterwards. I watch the movie now and I’m so glad I did it but boy, at the time it was tough
CraveOnline: What’s more challenging, doing a movie in a box or being a superhero in a light suit?
Ryan Reynolds: They all have their own unique challenges but I’d have to say that being in a box is probably more difficult than actually being in a box for real.
CraveOnline: Are you completely finished with Hal Jordan?
Ryan Reynolds: I’m completely done with the film. The practical shooting’s done but obviously the real work begins now and it’s one of those films that’s going to be post-production heavy and there’s going to be a lot of work that goes into it.
CraveOnline: When will we hear something about Deadpool?
Ryan Reynolds: I hope soon. I really do. I hope soon.
