Washington's career is characterized by powerful drama. He recently set a career achievement through Gladiator II, as the movie became the highest-grossing in his filmography. He was nominated for a Golden Globe for his work in Gladiator II, for playing Macrinus.

Ryan Reynolds is, in some ways, a very different actor than Washington. He is primarily known for comedy, frequenting movies like Free Guy and the like. Like Washington, 2024 has also been a fairly significant year for Reynolds' career. Most notably, he reprised his role as Deadpool for Deadpool & Wolverine, the first of the Deadpool movies to be officially part of the MCU. The movie did extremely well at the box office, making over $1.3 billion. Over a decade ago, Reynolds and Washington teamed up to make an action movie that is now leaving streaming soon.

Safe House Is Leaving Netflix Soon

The Last Day To Watch Is December 31

The action film Safe House is soon to leave its streaming platform. Safe House is a 2012 action film about a CIA agent named Matt Weston (Reynolds) who has to search for a fugitive, Tobin Frost (Washington), who is in a safe house. Matt's plans go awry, however, when said safe house is attacked, and he has to go on the run. In addition to Washington and Reynolds, Safe House features a leading cast including Vera Farmiga, Robert Patrick, Sam Shepard, and Brendan Gleeson. It received mixed reviews, getting a 52% Tomatometer on Rotten Tomatoes.

Now, Netflix has revealed that Safe House will be leaving the platform in just a few weeks. Safe House is officially leaving the platform on January 1, meaning the last day to stream Reynolds and Washington's action film will be December 31, 2024. Safe House is part of several titles leaving Netflix on that day, including four Transformers movies.

Why You Should Watch Safe House Before It Leaves Netflix

Safe House Is A Good Genre Film

Safe House may not be the best movie in either actor's career, but it is one worth checking out before it leaves Netflix. Made in a one-person action army-type style, the movie is a genuinely fun romp. It also does feature good performances from both Washington and Reynolds, who have both gone on to become regular action stars through franchises like The Equalizer and Deadpool. It is a shame that Safe House will only get a few more weeks of Netflix play, but that is just more reason to catch it now before it goes away.
