Ryan Reynolds andWalker Scobellare back at it!
The two actors costar in the new feel-good action flickThe Adam Project, Reynolds playing a futuristic time-traveling pilot who teams up with his younger self (Scobell) to save the future. And they’ve joined forces once again, this time for a hilarious new spot for Kraft Macaroni & Cheese.
In the clip, which debuted on Monday, Scobell films a commercial for the beloved and comforting pasta dish. But it appears that after channeling Reynolds on screen, Scobell still hasn’t shook Reynolds' trademark sarcasm, wit, or humor.
He continues to throw out more hilarious one-liners, including that it “makes grandma’s recipe taste like pure s—” and that “if your parents don’t buy it, stop loving them.”
Eventually Reynolds admits “this may be my fault” and steps in and helps Scobell wrap it up. “Hey bud,” he says. “Listen, you need to get it together right now because time is money and you’re ruining it.”

Levy told PEOPLE in February that it was his own wife who suggested Garner play the role after Ruffalo had already been cast, and that Reynolds pointed out that this would be a13 Going on 30reunion. “Though it looks like the smartest marketing move ever, it was strangely accidental,” Levy said, “but we got all the benefit of the chemistry that exists between Mark and Jen.”
“To reunite them in a different kind of time-travel movie, but one that’s just as sweet and warm-hearted felt really… we just felt very lucky,” Levy added.

Meanwhile Reynolds also spoke to PEOPLE in February about the film, revealing that his actual preteen self was “not unlike the 45-year-old me: just a ball of nerves.”
“I hide it well when I perform and when I walk out on talk shows, fancy events and stuff,” Reynolds said. “But no, on the inside I’m in a silent shriek.”
