It marks Reynolds’ return to more serious fare after numerous attempts to become a blockbuster superhero (“X-Men Origins: Wolverine,” “Green Lantern”) didn’t work out in his favor, and “R.I.P.D.” bombed hard in theaters last summer.

Reynolds reverted back to smaller scale films earlier this year with “The Voices,” a psychological thriller directed by Iranian filmmaker Marjane Satrapi (“Persepolis”), which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival before being acquired by Lionsgate.

Further down the pipeline, Reynolds will be seen in director Tarsem Singh’s sci-fi “Selfless” and gambling drama “Mississippi Grind.”
