Ryan Reynolds takes a ride on Yas Island theme park attractions

Ryan Reynolds, Chief Island Officer

Yas Island, located in Abu Dhabi, is home to multiple theme parks and family attractions. These include Ferrari World Abu Dhabi; Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi; SeaWorld Yas Island, Abu Dhabi; and Yas Waterworld.

The island named Reynolds as its new CIO in April, following previous CIOs Kevin Hart and Jason Momoa.

To begin his tenure as CIO, Reynolds took a ride on the Turbo Track roller coaster at Ferrari World with his “body double.”

At Warner Bros. World, Reynolds got to ride The Riddler Revolution with the Riddler himself, as well as Joker and Harley Quinn. Reynolds also met up with Looney Tunes characters and arm-wrestled Superman (the man of steel won).

“With the appointment of Ryan Reynolds as our latest Chief Island Officer of Yas Island Abu Dhabi, we continue the tradition of excellence established by Kevin Hart and Jason Momoa,” said Liam Findlay, CEO of Miral Destinations (the trade and promotional arm for Yas Island). “Reynolds brings his own unique blend of charisma, energy, and enthusiasm to the role, promising to elevate the Yas Island experience to even greater heights. We’re thrilled to embark on this exhilarating journey with him, inviting fans worldwide to be part of the legacy.”
