Ryan Reynolds finds himself at the heart of a new on-set controversy after his Boltneck co-star, Matthew Lawrence, made startling allegations about his behavior during filming. Speaking on his Brotherly Love Podcast, Lawrence described the filming experience as highly uncomfortable, revealing that Reynolds often strayed from his scripted role to do “his thing.”
Lawrence, best known from Boy Meets World, recalled that producers would reprimand Reynolds on multiple occasions. According to Lawrence, the producers even confronted him with remarks like,
“Ryan, this is a bad Jim Carrey impersonation. This is not what we hired you to do. You can’t impersonate somebody; you have to do your own thing.”

One notable incident mentioned by Lawrence involved Reynolds reportedly growing agitated over the producers’ criticism and curtly declaring, “I’m doing my thing.” Furthermore, Lawrence alleged that the actor frequently challenged the film’s script and engaged in heated disputes with the makers during the production process.
Despite these serious claims, the acclaimed actor—widely recognized for roles in films such as Deadpool and Mrs. Doubtfire—has remained silent on the matter. For context, in Boltneck, Lawrence portrayed Frank Stein, a science-enthused student, while Reynolds played the character Karl O’Reilly. The film was released on February 25, 2000.
This on-set controversy has sparked debates across entertainment circles, with industry insiders and fans closely watching for any further developments in the story surrounding Ryan Reynolds’ conduct during filming.
