Sure, Reynolds’ signature humor and wit are all over this performance. However, this rom-com features the Deadpool actor’s softer side — one with more empathy and compassion. Manhattanite Will Hayes (Reynolds) is currently going through a divorce when his 10-year-old daughter, Maya (Abigail Breslin), asks how he met her mother.
Will turns this story into a game by naming three women from his past and changing their names so Maya can guess which woman became her mother. The charming tale becomes a way for Will to reexamine his life as he reminisces about the one who got away. Stream Definitely, Maybe on Netflix .
