Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson are considering adopting a disadvantaged child, but not because it's the latest celebrity trend. The 32-year-old actor told the British edition of Glamour magazine, "My oldest brother is adopted and I have every intention of adopting at some time. I'm very grateful for having my brother in my life. I couldn't be more pro-adoption. There are plenty of kids in the world that need it."
Although Ryan is now very close to his three brothers, he admits they didn’t always get on as youngsters. “I learned how to take a punch from a very early age. I was routinely pummeled into a fine cottage cheese,” he told the magazine, adding that his childhood with three brothers helped him in action roles.
The Proposal actor also enjoys a close relationship with his parents and says he shares a lot of their traits: “I have my father’s face and body, but my mother’s unshakable thirst for knowledge. She works part-time jobs but basically she’s been a student her whole life. She still goes to university and she’s in her 60s.”
