The weekend festivities may be over, but that doesn’t mean you have to wallow in your own self-pity tonight. One of the best things to do after a hectic weekend is to unwind and watch one of your favorite movies.

We recommend watching something light and funny to deal with that dreaded Sunday night fear, and luckily enough the perfect Sunday night flick is on TV tonight.

Thanks to the wonderful people over at Universal we’ll be tuning into one of the funniest Sandra Bullock movies.

The Proposal is on at 9 pm tonight and we are beyond excited about it. It’s hard to believe it’s been nine years since the film was initially released.

The hilarious movie stars Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. Bullock stars as the fierce editor whose world flips upside down when she is told she might be deported back home to Canada.

Luckily, the quick-thinking boss puts a plan together and uses her assistant to solve her problems. She tells Reynolds’ character, Andrew, that he must marry her, but he will only agree if she promotes him to editor and publishes his book.

The duo embarks on a trip to Andrew’s hometown where they have to convince his family and their immigration agent that their marriage isn't a complete farce.

This movie is full of witty scenes, touching moments and an infamous dance sequence with Betty White.

We couldn’t think of anything better to watch on a Sunday night.

You can catch The Proposal on Universal at 9 pm tonight.

As the number of children diagnosed with anxiety has risen in recent years, so has the need for prominent figures to speak out and reduce the stigma of having anxiety.

An advocate has come forward, and he's quite unexpected. From his smooth demeanour to his quick comebacks, Ryan Reynolds always seems at ease.

However, in a recent New York Times profile, the Deadpool star revealed that he's struggled with anxiety for his entire career.

The Canadian actor is gripped with nausea and fear before every talk show appearance. This sense of dread can build up to the extent that he is convinced at the moment that he may die.

“I have anxiety, I’ve always had anxiety,” Ryan revealed, “Both in the lighthearted ‘I’m anxious about this’ kind of thing, and I’ve been to the depths of the darker end of the spectrum, which is not fun.”

His quick wit, which has made him a sensation on social media, has often been his primary form of self-protection in stressful situations.

The Definitely, Maybe star's strained relationship with his father Jim, a former police officer, partially led Ryan to develop this unconventional defence mechanism.

His father was a 'the stress dispensary in our house', Ryan noted: "I became this young skin-covered micromanager. When you stress out kids, there’s a weird paradox that happens because they’re suddenly taking on things that aren’t theirs to take on.”

Jim was also quite the character though, and introduced his son to comedy icons like Buster Keaton and Jack Benny. Through this, Ryan learned that every difficult moment has an element to it that can be made laughable.

Then, when Ryan got into his early 20s, he entered a phased that he characterises as 'unhinged'

“I was partying and just trying to make myself vanish in some way,” he admits.

Things are better these days, though. The father-of-two uses specific coping mechanisms to deal with his anxiety in a constructive way.

Often he does interviews in character as Deadpool, who is overly confident and perpetually wise-cracking (sound familiar?).

As well, the 41-year-old uses the meditation app Headspace before entering anxiety-inducing situations.

Finally, he says, “When the curtain opens, I turn on this knucklehead, and he kind of takes over and goes away again once I walk off set."

“That’s that great self-defence mechanism," Ryan reflected, "I figure if you’re going to jump off a cliff, you might as well fly.”

Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are one of our favourite Hollywood couples. She won us over as the ever so stylish Serena van der Woodsen in Gossip Girl, and Ryan never fails to make us laugh with his sarcastic and witty tweets.

They may be loved by many, but like any Hollywood couple, the pair has been hit with dozens of rumours since they started dating.

Recent reports claimed that the actors haven’t been spending much quality time together due to their hectic schedules. Deadpool 2 will be released in the coming weeks and Blake has landed the lead female role in the film adaptation of the Mark Burnell novel The Rhythm Section, so the duo are certainly busy, however, The Proposal star couldn’t help but comment on rumours about their marriage.

Taking to Twitter, Ryan responded to an article that said, “Deadpool, Ryan Reynolds, and wife Blake Lively struggling to spend 'quality time'.

The 41-year-old  replied, “I wish. I could use a little “me time”.”

The Green Lantern star’s sense of humour is second to none. We couldn’t think of a better way to respond to those rumours.

In the past, Blake has opened up about their relationship, admitting that they try not to work at the same time.

The Age of Adaline star told People, "My husband and I don’t work at the same time, so we all go together as a family. If we’re away as a family, it’s never more than for a day. We stay together.”

We love Ryan Reynolds – from his stunning good looks, to his incredible sense of humour, to just how sweet he is with his family.

And now there's one more reason to love the Deadpool star – he owns a gin company! Real casual. 

In his signature devil-may-care way, the father-of-two announced his new venture with a picture on Instagram of him casually surrounded by Aviation American Gin wares.

"I own nothing in this photo. Except that gin company," the 41-year-old quipped in the caption. We're swooning!

Owning a gin company isn't all rustic photo shoots though (if only). Ryan will be the creative director of the brand and sit on the Portland-based company's board, according to Forbes.

While it is unknown exactly how much of the company he purchased, a representative for Aviation American Gin told Forbes that Ryan has become a 'significant owner'.

The Proposal actor certainly has the cash to spare to make such investments. Last year, he was the world's 15th highest paid actor, raking in about $21.5M before taxes.

And he wouldn't be the first celebrity to decide to expand his personal brand to the alcohol industry.

Justin Timberlake, George Clooney and AC/DC all have their own tequilas. The Hanson brothers are peddling their own beer called – you guessed it – Mmmhops. And that's just the tip of the iceberg!

Speaking about what first drew him to the craft distiller, Ryan told Forbes, "About a year ago, I tried Aviation for the first time. Since that day, I’ve spent my time finding some way to infiltrate the company."

"I did this for one simple reason: It’s the best damn gin on the planet."

That's high praise! The company also had kind words for Ryan, calling their 'new boss' an 'actor, producer, [and] professional good-looking person'.

He should really just have that printed on his CV.

We don't know how the Hollywood machine ended up with so many attractive Chrises at once, but we're not complaining.

The only question remains though, who is the hunkiest: Hemsworth, Pratt, or Evans?

Ryan Reynolds was asked to weigh in on this important issue of our times, and his answer was amazing.

We are SWOONING!

And not just that – the Deadpool star hasn't forgotten about our gorgeous hunk Chris Pine!

Could Ryan be any more perfect?

People on Twitter completely agreed – Ryan Reynolds is our man.

Is it hot in here or is it just us?

Decorating Christmas cookies may be one of our favourite holiday traditions. Even though you inevitably get covered in sprinkles and frosting, it's just so fun (and tasty)!

Unfortunately, not all of us are gifted when it comes to the craft of icing. Someone who can sympathise? Dad-of-two Ryan Reynolds.

He and wife Blake Lively are always taking hilarious shots at each other on social media, so when he botched a batch of cookies she took her chance.

"Like they’ve never said, like never, ever… Ryan Reynolds is the next Martha Stewart," the Gossip Girl star tweeted.

The 30-year-old mum even shared the pic with her 18.8M Insta followers, captioning it, "…He’s verrry handsome though."

We are in STITCHES!

We're glad he has something to make up for his lack of culinary skills. That snowman looks less frosty and more…bloody.

Instagram users were definitely amused by Ryan's mangled cookies.

"Legit looks like there’s been a massacre," joked one person.

"I’ve heard of killing the Christmas spirit, but you sir, you killed the Christmas cookies. What’s next, a reindeer?" said another of Blake's followers.

We can't get enough of their couple banter!

Sibling love can be beautiful, enriching…. and downright hilarious.

We all know that Ryan Reynolds is gas, but the actor had us in stitches with his happy birthday wishes to his older brother yesterday.

The 41-year-old movie star is the youngest of four boys, two of whom are police officers in Canada. Like in any family with all boys, they show their love a little bit differently.

Taking to Insta, he shared a  throwback snap of himself and his older brother Jeff with his 15.7M Insta followers, saying: 

'I may have three older brothers, but only one Jeff. You were the first friend I ever had. If there was ever a fire and I had to choose a family member to save, obviously it’d be me.'

'But if I had time to save one more… and I knew it was safe to re-enter the burning building, you can be damn sure I’d call the fire department.'

'They’re experts in the field and have top quality safety gear. Not to mention experience in these matters. I love you. Happy Birthday.'

 

Happy Birthday to my amazing wife.

Ah, brotherly love. 

The Proposal actor is legendary for his birthday takedowns at this point. He posted to Instagram in August to wish his wife Blake Lively, with whom he has two adorable daughters, a happy 30th birthday.

'Happy Birthday to my amazing wife' he captioned the photo of himself and Blake on the red carpet – cropping her out of the picture in the mean time.

When it comes to trolling, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are absolute pros.

The couple, who tied the knot in 2012, are less about the public declarations of love, and more interested in getting straight-up savage with one another… much to the delight of their millions of fans.

We mean, who could forget Blake's Ryan Gosling-inspired birthday message to her other half?!

And while they're often neck and neck in the savagery stakes, Ryan recently stormed ahead after choosing to share an image of Blake on-set in the Irish capital.

As countless media outlets mentioned this week, the actress wasn't looking as polished as normal (that's acting for ya, right?), but Ryan saw his chance and ran with it.

Uploading an image of Blake looking like most of us after a rough session and a night spent sleeping on our mate's sitting room floor, Ryan simply wrote: "No filter."

And Instagram is here for it.

"You guys are too funny," wrote one Irish fan while another follower added: "Relationship goals."

Blake, your move.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have to be one of our favourite couples in Hollywood. 

The pair, who have been married for five years and have two children together, have a lighthearted approach to their relationship, and the most recent example of this had us in stitches. 

Ryan turned 41 on Monday, and Blake took to Instagram to pay homage to her hubby.

However, rather than posting a loved-up snap, Blake decided that the time was nigh to get revenge on her actor husband after he posted a photo of the pair with Blake cropped out for her birthday. 

'Happy Birthday to my amazing wife,' he captioned the pic at the time.

Blake's revenge is the perfect example of a long-running joke.

'Happy Birthday, baby,' Blake captioned the post, alongside a pic of Ryan Gosling beside a cropped out Ryan Reynolds. 

Fans were delighted with the couple's jest, and many commented praising their humour. 

Yet another example of why Blake and Ryan are complete couple goals.

Ryan Reynolds has taken to social media to pay tribute to a Deadpool 2 crew member who lost her life while filming in Vancouver this week.

It is understood that Joi "SJ" Harris was driving a motorbike when she lost control of the vehicle and crashed through the Shaw Tower's ground floor studio.

Confirming reports which had been circulating, Ryan Reynolds wrote: "Today, we tragically lost a member of our crew while filming Deadpool."

"We’re heartbroken, shocked and devastated … but recognize nothing can come close to the grief and inexplicable pain her family and loved ones must feel in this moment," he continued.

Ryan finished the message with a nod to the impact SJ had throughout her life, concluding: "My heart pours out to them – along with each and every person she touched in this world."

The tweet, which has amassed more than 136,000 likes since its upload last night, has ignited debate over whether the film should be cancelled in the wake of her death – a suggestion which was dismissed by many of Ryan's followers.

"They finished The Crow and the freaking star of the movie died. This is awful but a risk of the job," countered one member of the public.

"And Gladiator. Oliver Reed died during filming and they got a stand in," added another.

Paying tribute to the skill and talent exhibited by stunt actors within the industry, one Twitter user wrote: "it's about time that stunt people get recognised at the Oscars or similar level awards. You couldn't make movies without them!"

Hollywood actor and father of two, Ryan Reynolds, is known for his hilarious tweets about parenting.

From teaching his daughter that the sun goes down each night because it's made at her, to looking into her eyes and whispering the words, “I can't do this,” Ryans accounts of parenting are refreshingly real – or are they?

Well, before we crush your dreams, here's a selection of some of the actor's best work:

In a recent interview with Glamour magazine, Ryan's wife, Blake Lively admitted that the side-splitting anecdotes we've grown to love so much, are completely fabricated.

“He may as well work for The Enquirer,” she said. “When he says ‘my daughter,’ he’s never, ever talking about her. Everything is a completely made-up scenario.”

She continued, “He’ll run them by me sometimes just to make me laugh. But oh, I’m so in love with him when he writes that stuff. I mean, I’m in love with him most of the time, but especially with that.”

Blake also dismissed the idea that her life is perfect, calling the notion complete “nonsense”.

“The night before an interview, I have complete anxiety: How is this person going to spin me? So when you read, ‘Oh, she’s got a perfect life,’ or ‘Her life is crumbling’ — they pick narratives for everyone. And the narratives stick.”

Blake and Ryan married in 2012, after meeting on the set of their 2010 film Green Lantern.

They have two young daughters together – two-year-old James and Inez, who was born in September last year.

Since it's Father's Day we wanted to give some of our favourite celebrity dads some love. 

From David Beckham, to Tom Fletcher – the calibre of the famous father is pretty darn high, but Ryan Reynolds is by far the funniest.

The 40-year-old father has become somewhat renowned for his brutal honesty when it comes to parenting – and we have the hilarious tweets to prove it. 

1. When he called his own daughter an asshole. 

 

 

2. When he joked about loosening his parental reigns. 

3. Travelling with kids is no joke, right?

4. When he got super real about how scary kids can be! 

5.  That time he accepted that parenthood affected his social life. 

6. When he focused on the decor in his daughter's room.

7. That time he was a total prankster.

8. Real talk (but only for a second!)

9.  When he admitted to something we have all secretly done. 

10. #RoadTrip

Hours of entertainment!
