Uncle Buck and Planes, Trains and Automobiles passed away in 1994, though his legacy is alive and well. In fact, fellow Canadian actor Ryan Reynolds recently revealed that he’s making a movie about Candy (which I’m now very excited for). And shortly after he delivered the news, Candy’s kids shared some responses.
Ryan Reynolds felt compelled to make the announcement on Twitter after seeing that John Candy was trending. The actor didn’t hesitate to show his love for Candy before explaining that he and his production company, Maximum Effort, have teamed up with Colin Hanks for a doc on Candy’s life. Reynolds finished out his tweet by simply saying, “Expect tears,” and I’d honestly expect nothing less.
Of course, that news was only made sweeter by the responses from the Candy family. Christopher Candy retweeted the Deadpool star’s message and sweetly confirmed that the project is in the works. Check out his tweet down below: His sister, Jennifer Candy, retweeted the post as well and gave Ryan Reynolds and his collaborators a glowing endorsement.
You can check out her message for yourself as well:John Candy has been fondly remembered by his family on a number of occasions. For instance, Jennifer once said that Candy was actually a lot like the titular Uncle Buck. As she put it, the actor was “very serious, stern, tough love” but also “knew how to have a good time.
” The city of Toronto, Candy’s hometown, also honored him a few years back by designating a day in his memory. Surely, these are some of the things that will be discussed in the upcoming documentary. One would also expect the feature to include anecdotes from some of the late performer’s esteemed co-stars, many of whom have shared their memories of him before.
