In 2018, The New York Times reported that Ryan Reynolds had obtained dual citizenship in 2016 as he was born and raised in Vancouver. In 2016, in an interview with Variety, Ryan Reynolds told that he would have loved to cast a vote in that election but he didn’t get to have a voice. He added that he was right at that age where he was making that transition.

Ryan Reynolds further stated that it was interesting to watch it all unfold. 'They are standing at the precipice what they think is going to be a very historical heavily scrutinized period in United States history', he added and called it a very frightening time. He added that he can understand so much of the fear that comes from this huge portion of the population that’s going to feel disenfranchised. Furthermore, he said that minority groups, women, LGBTQ communities — those are all communities that he thinks are rightfully very afraid for the moment and he is afraid of them and for them.
