Life is strange, and I’m incredibly proud and grateful,” Ryan tweeted. “I never dreamt I’d own a wireless company, and I certainly never dreamt I’d sell it to T-Mobile. In a video shared to his social media, Ryan and Mike Sievert, CEO of T-Mobile, explained that Mint had been using T-Mobile’s network and that the brand’s affordable $15 a month price plan would stay in place. I am so proud of the entire Mint team and so excited for what’s to come.” “We are so happy T-Mobile beat out an aggressive last-minute bid from my mom Tammy Reynolds as we believe the excellence of their 5G network will provide a better strategic fit than my mom’s slightly-above-average mahjong skills. “Mint Mobile is the best deal in wireless, and today’s news only enhances our ability to deliver for our customers,” Ryan said in a statement released on Mar.

While he may not be able to call himself a billionaire the same way that Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, and Tiger Woodscan, he’s getting close. Since then, Ryan’s other commercial ventures and high-paying acting gigs have brought home the bacon. That year, he and Rob McEhelnney, purchased Wrexham Association Football Club, which he parlayed into the Welcome to Wrexham reality series. In 2020, Forbeslisted Ryan’s estimated net worth at $71.5 million. I only want the best for Mint Mobile customers. Ryan is reported to own between 20-25% of Mint, per The Hollywood Reporter, meaning he will get “a low nine-figure payday.” and its subsidiaries and brands (Mint Mobile, international wireless service Ultra Mobile, and wholesaler Plum) for $1.35 billion. Under the agreement, which is expected to close later this year, T-Mobile will buy Ka’ena Corp. Ryan, 46, purchased an ownership stake in Mint Mobile in 2019 and has since become the face of the wireless carrier in its advertising. Ryan Reynolds is technically not a billionaire, but he took one giant step closer to that status on Wednesday when T-Mobile announced it was buying Mint Mobile. The carrier views Mint and Ultra as complementary to its existing prepaid options, which include Metro by T-Mobile, Connect by T-Mobile, and T-Mobile's own branded prepaid service.Image Credit: Chris Pizzello/Invision/AP/Shutterstock

T-Mobile expects to close the deal later this year and plans to leverage its supplier relationships and distribution scale to help Mint Mobile and Ultra Mobile grow, as well as offer competitive pricing and a wider range of device inventory to consumers, according to the release. David Glickman, the co-founder of Mint Mobile, told that Reynolds will be staying with the company for "multiple years." Reynolds and T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert announced the acquisition in a video that was posted online on Wednesday morning. Reynolds, who owns approximately 25% of Mint Mobile, has been a prominent figure in the company's advertising campaigns. According to T-Mobile's press release, Ryan Reynolds, who is both a part owner and the face of Mint Mobile, will continue to be involved in a "creative role" for the wireless carrier.
