“To be honest, my kids are growing up and they are growing up faster than any doctor would have predicted,” he added. “And I don’t want to miss it. That’s more important to me than any movies or anything else right now.”
The “Deadpool” star admitted he was “very lucky” that he can take time off to do that, acknowledging not everyone can.
“I’m just trying to create a little bit more space for my family,” Ryan shared with the Hollywood Reporter. “You know, you really don’t get that time back.”
The superstar actor is married to actress Blake Lively and the two have three children together.
