“There’s a pizza place in the East Village in New York that I’ve been going to for years,” Reynolds said. “They believe I’m Ben Affleck and I’ve never corrected them. I feel it would not go over well if I revealed.”
When he’s not mistaken for Affleck, he adds, he tends to get confused for Ryan Gosling, the other famous Canadian Ryan.

Ryan Gosling has blond hair and Ryan Reynolds is a [expletive].”
Reynolds said if he had starred in “The Notebook” instead of Gosling it would have been a disaster.
“That would have failed horrendously,” he said. “It would have been worse. I promise you. It would have been unwatchable.”
