I'd like Ryan to return to more serious roles. He's a decent actor but he just ends up playing the same character in everything at the moment; he's getting predictable and typecast imo.
Isn’t that his entire career? He’s always played the cheeky but endearing person.
Yes and no. He's had more serious roles like Life, Safe House, Buried, Smokin' Aces etc. He certainly has a 'type' but at the moment it feels like you could just lift-and-shift his character from one film to another and noone would notice.
I enjoyed his character in The Voices. Admittedly still a comedy, but a good performance from him that was something a little different.
