FEATURE: RYAN REYNOLDS PLAYS WITH IMMORTALITY IN “SELF/LESS” MOVIE

Ryan Reynolds talks about his new movie, Self/Less, and getting Ben Kingsley’s mind.

What would happen if you could transfer your mind and soul into another body? That’s what happens to Ryan Reynolds’ character Damian when a big bad industrialist big wig, played by Ben Kingsley, decides to take over and inhabit his body for a second chance at life.

In the movie, billionaire industrialist Damian Hale (Ben Kingsley) is master of his universe, until he encounters a foe that he can’t defeat: cancer. His only hope is a radical medical procedure called “shedding,” in which his consciousness is transferred to a healthy body.

After the procedure, Damian, now called Edward (Ryan Reynolds), starts a new life in New Orleans, but is plagued by disturbing images. When he delves into Edward’s mysterious origin, he learns that some will kill to keep it secret.

In this video feature, Reynolds, Kingsley and cast talk about the making of Self/Less and getting to jump into another man’s body for a second chance at life.

Self/Less opens Friday July 10 and stars Ryan Reynolds, Sir Ben Kingsley, Matthew Goode, Natalie Martinez and Michelle Dockery.
