“Every tech company needs a streaming service,” the actor and entrepreneur tweeted. “So… introducing Mint Mobile +. The world’s most affordable streaming service!”
A promotional video invites users to “binge over 80 minutes of Ryan Reynolds” — specifically, his movie Foolproof, presented in sumptuous “2003 DVD quality.”

In case you need further proof Reynolds isn’t being fully serious, he followed the initial tweet with, “Two minutes after launch and our crack data team has already determined Mint Mobile + should probably be shut down by the weekend. We’ll go back to focusing on premium wireless…”
