Addison Rae Joins Ryan Reynolds In Legendary's 'Animal Friends'

Addison Rae joins Ryan Reynolds, Jason Momoa, Vince Vaughn, and Aubrey Plaza in Legendary’s ‘Animal Friends‘. In the live-action hybrid film, Rae will play one of the lead characters.

The film is an R-rated road trip adventure directed by Peter Atencio from a screenplay by Kevin Burrows and Matt Mider. The plot details are currently kept under wraps.

‘Animal Friends’ will be produced by Legendary, Maximum Effort (Ryan Reynolds’ production company), and Namit Malhotra’s Prime Focus Studios. The visual effects and animation will be handled by DNEG, a leading visual entertainment services company. The film’s concept emerged from a meeting between Kevin Burrows, Matt Mider, and Maximum Effort executive Patrick Gooing.

Addison Rae’s career continues to soar as she lands one of the coveted lead roles in Eli Roth’s highly anticipated film, ‘Thanksgiving.’ Her impressive audition left Roth in awe, making her the sought-after choice for the part. With a scheduled release this Thanksgiving, the film, produced by TriStar Pictures, is poised to become a potential franchise for the studio. Rae’s recent multi-million dollar deal with Netflix further solidifies her status, as her massive TikTok following of over 80 million followers positions her as a powerful influencer in shaping projects across various companies. Following the success of ‘He’s All That,’ studios have eagerly lined up to collaborate with Rae, and the scream queen role in ‘Thanksgiving’ perfectly aligns with her ambitions as an emerging star.
