There has never been an R-rated “Star Wars” movie or TV show before. The closest thing the franchise has would be its more mature “Andor” TV series, which just finished its two-season run earlier this month and dealt with some heavy themes. As for his R-rated pitch, Reynolds says it would not be for him to star in.

The ‘Deadpool' star revealed he pitched the idea to the studio while noting that he does not want to star in the potential film or TV show.

Points for self-awareness: Not even Ryan Reynolds, in the midst of pitching a Star Wars movie to his pals at Disney, necessarily thought Ryan Reynolds would be a good fit for the Star Wars universe.
