Ryan Reynolds Debuts New Buzzcut

Reynolds, 38, stopped by The Tonight Show to promote his new film, Woman in Gold, and debuted a surprising new look. The actor has ditched the longer, well coiffed look, for a new variation on the buzzcut. Reynolds shaved the sides of his head, leaving a bit of length on top. A nice bit of scruff completed the look. It’s unclear whether or not the haircut is simply a fashion choice or for a role. Reynolds is currently preparing to start production on the recently announced Deadpool movie.

Ryan Reynolds Talks Baby

Reynolds spoke to Fallon about his newborn baby daughter, rumored to be named James. The actor didn’t reveal any baby specifics, but he did reveal that he and his wife, Blake Lively, are not getting much sleep.

“Our baby in particular, we think, is allergic to sleep,” Reynolds joked. “We think that she thinks she’s protecting us from the sleep monsters.”

Reynolds and Fallon bonded over being fathers to baby girls – Fallon has two daughters of his own. “She’s got me wrapped around her finger,” Reynolds admitted.

Later in the show, the actor and comedian faced off in a game of Egg Russian Roulette, where Reynolds cracked a raw egg onto his brand new haircut!
