"The Adam Project," starring Ryan Reynolds, is now streaming on Netflix. The Netflix original movie is the actor's third film to get an exclusive release on the streaming service, following "6 Underground" and "Red Notice."  

In the sci-fi adventure, Reynolds plays a pilot from 2050 who crash lands in the past and then seeks help from his 12-year-old self to save the future. To do that, they must find the scientist who invented time travel — their father (Mark Ruffalo). "The Adam Project" sees Reynolds reteam with "Free Guy" director Shawn Levy. Jennifer Garner and Zoe Saldana also star.
