The Adam Project is one of Netflix’s most recent films and it offered audiences a delightful time travel adventure. The film hit the streaming platform on March 11th, 2022, and quickly climbed the Netflix charts. For several weeks straight, it remained Netflix’s #1 most-watched show on the service. The sci-fi action flick stars an impressive ensemble cast including Ryan Reynolds, Zoe Saldaña, Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Garner, and Walker Scobell, and was directed by Shawn Levy.

The Adam Project follows Adam Reed (Reynolds) a time traveler from 2050 who crash lands in 2022 and reluctantly enlists the help of his mouthy, pipsqueak younger self (Scobell) who is struggling with the grief of losing his father. Together, they set out to rescue Reed’s wife, Laura (Saldaña). However, the rescue mission soon turns into a mission to save the world from a villain who wishes to control time itself.
