Free Guy: From GTA - Vice City to Super Mario, Ryan Reynolds' New Movie Posters Pay Homage to Classic Video Games
Free Guy is just days off its release and has had quite a neat reception. Critics have been praising the new Ryan Reynolds starrer for its fun premise and charming cast. Free Guy is set in an open world video game and follows Guy who is a non-playable character in it. After becoming aware that he is in a video game, Guy takes a step to become a hero accompanied by allies in a race against time to save the video game before it gets shut down. The film also stars Jodie Comer, Joe Keery and Taika Waititi, while it's being directed by Shawn Levy of Stranger Things fame.

Ryan Reynolds has brought the same energy to the marketing of Free Guy as he did for Deadpool. From the hilarious promos to making a reaction video for its trailer featuring Deadpool and Korg, the marketing campaign here has been entertaining to say the least. With the trailers it is clear that Free Guy takes heavy inspirations from video games. So of course in an absolutely amazing move, 20th Century Studios dropped a bunch of posters for Free Guy paying homage to some video game classics.

These posters sure have spiked our interest in the movie just due to how amazing the marketing campaign has been. It is very reminiscent of what Warner Brothers did for Ready Player One where they recreated a bunch of classic movie posters with characters from the films. Free Guy is slated to release on August 13, 2021.
