Ryan Reynolds steps it up in Entertainment Weekly by appearing in four different covers this week, I just hope they are all shirtless. I know I’ll be racing to my mailbox to see exactly which cover I get. Ryan is on the cover to promote his new movie, The Proposal. I am dying to see this one. And really if it has Ryan in it you know it’s going to be good.

In the interview he talks about being a sex symbol, his favorite tv show, and being an actor. Here are the highlights:

On being a sex symbol: “Really embarrassing. I think I fear more than anything just sounding like a complete a-hole when I have to answer that question. If you take any of that seriously, you need to be euthanized, ASAP.”

On being an actor: “I’ve always just liked working. I like being a working actor. There’s an old saying that you don’t ever finish a movie, you abandon it, and I really believe that. I never walk away from a take and pat myself on the back. You always walk away going, ‘Damnit, I should have tried this!’ It’s that possibility that keeps me coming back for more.”

On favorite TV Show, A&E’s Intervention: “Real schadenfreude stuff. The first season or two is all about alcoholics and heroin addicts, but then as the seasons progress, they feel the need to sensationalize it a bit. So by Season 5, you get to people who are chemically unable to experience joy unless they’re smoking a cat, or something equally disturbing. I love it.”

On video games: ” I don’t really play video games. Is there a way to waste more f–ing time? The internet’s enough. The last videogame I played was Ms. Pacman.”
