Aside from a few episodes of the anthology series “Miracle Workers,” Reynolds’ next big television role came in 2019 — a few years before “Search Party” ended — thanks to Mindy Kaling’s and Charlie Grandy’s television reboot of “Four Weddings and a Funeral.” Based on the Richard Curtis film, the Hulu original miniseries ran for one season, and though it didn’t receive overwhelming love from critics, it was still an enormous opportunity for Reynolds and his career.
Reynolds plays Caleb Duffy, who goes by his last name and joins his fellow American friends to attend a posh wedding in London. Alongside Maya (“Game of Thrones” star Nathalie Emmanuel), Ainsley (Rebecca Rittenhouse), and Kash (Nikesh Patel), Duffy navigates the ups and downs of his love life — especially his unrequited love for Maya, for whom he’s pined over for a decade. “Four Weddings and a Funeral” might not have been Reynolds’ most beloved project to date, but it proved the actor has what it takes to be a rom-com lead.
