Reynolds needed a cane to walk on-stage at the ComicCon event in Philadelphia. "I haven't done this before. I think it's a good time to find out what it's all about," the former action star told the Philadelphia Inquirer.
"I always enjoy talking to fans,” Reynolds continued. “I'm usually very pleased with their curiosity about my career, what I'm doing, what I'm not doing, and why I'm not doing more."
