Ryan Reynolds

Reynolds stars as Adam, a pilot who time-travels to the past and teams up with his younger self to save the world. Reynolds, who also produced the film, told The Hollywood Reporter that it’s reminiscent of warm-hearted ‘80s films like E.T. and Back to the Future.

Saldaña stars as Adam’s love interest, Laura. Saldaña, who has made a name for herself in sci-fi fare like Star Trek and Guardians of the Galaxy, praised the film’s mix of genres on The Today Show, saying it “has all the heart, it has all the adventure.”

Walker Scobell

But Reynolds’ true partner in the film is Walker Scobell, who makes his screen debut as a younger version of Adam. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Reynolds gushed about Scobell, saying he “had the kind of poise that a veteran would have.”

Ruffalo plays Adam’s late father, Louis — a scientist who helps both young and old Adam in their mission to save the world. His role gives audiences a long-awaited reunion with a beloved former co-star who plays Adam’s mom...

Jennifer Garner

Catherine Keener

The legendary character actor plays The Adam Project’s scheming, time-traveling villain, Maya Sorian — a businesswoman who’s used Adam’s father’s research to enrich herself in the future.
