Ryan Reynolds is a real-life superhero to his daughter Inez, carrying her on his shoulders as they explore NYC.

He plays the hero, of sorts, in the Deadpool franchise.

The star carried the two-year-old on his shoulders when they were spotted out in the Tribeca neighborhood of New York city on Sunday afternoon.

The 42-year-old looked casual in a blue polo shirt, grey pants and white sneakers.

His little blonde cutie wore a sweet dress with a black bodice and red sleevesand rainbow hued sneakers as she held on tight to her dad’s face.

Ryan even took the time to pick up a bouquet of flowers for his pregnant wife, actress Blake Lively, 31, who stayed home with their daughter James, four.

Last month, Ryan told People that he and Blake won’t work on films at the same time so they can keep their family together.

‘Blake and I don’t do movies at the same time. If she is doing a movie in Thailand and I am doing a movie in Vancouver we would just never see each other,’ he said.

‘We operate as a unit, and that works really well for us. The kids stay with us, and the family stays together, and that is where home is. So if we are in Spain or Utah or New York, as long as we are together, we’re home.’
