Ryan Reynolds is famous for his witty and dry humor, both in his movies and in real life. But he takes on a very different kind of role in the 2014 film The Captive, playing a father whose daughter disappears. Directed by Atom Egoyan and co-written by Reynolds with David Fraser, the movie also features a strong supporting cast including Bruce Greenwood, Scott Speedman, Rosario Dawson, Mireille Enos, Kevin Durand, and Alexia Fast. Viewers are clearly interested in seeing Reynolds in a more serious role, as The Captive is currently a top 10 hit on Netflix in the U.S.
