The Adam Project stars Ryan Reynolds in the role of Adam Reed. Adam is a pilot in some unspecified dystopian future where time travel has not only been discovered, it’s been used for nefarious purposes. When Adam decides to fight back and steal a time traveling spaceship, he ends up getting shot before jumping back in time to the year 2022. There, Adam plants his ship in the trees behind his childhood home and meets his 12 year old self, played by Walker Scobell.
Needing a place to recover while he repairs his ship, Adam is forced to work with his younger self whose DNA is needed to repair the ship. It turns out that Adam’s late father, played by Mark Ruffalo invented time travel before his untimely death in 2018 under mysterious circumstances. Dad named the entire time travel project after Adam and he’s become integral to the program run by Sorian (Catherine Keener), Dad’s former partner who is a little bit greedy and a whole lot evil.
