Reynolds’ admission that he was the one who put Washington through a brutal third take of the scene comes amid other controversies the actor has caused while at TIFF.
On September 4, Reynolds was rude to a child reporter who was covering the red carpet premiere of John Candy: I Like Me for Canada’s CTV.
When The Proposal star got to the nervous youngster, he blurted out, ‘”Hi, what’s your question for me, buddy?” without asking the little boy’s name or exchanging any other pleasantries.
When the child responded, “Hi Ryan, nice to meet you,” Reynolds cut him off, saying, “Nice to meet you too, let’s skip to the question.”
The star also got into an argument with Schitt’s Creek actor Eugene Levy on the same red carpet.
Lip reader Nicola Hickling told RadarOnline that Reynolds told his fellow Canadian, “Bulls—, man,” before Levy responded, “Language, you don’t need to speak so harsh.” An irritated Reynold fired back, “Please don’t ever tell me how I can talk to people.”
