Ryan Reynolds Told Pals Scarlett "Treated Him Badly"

Ryan Reynolds didn't feel like such a superhero when the cameras weren't rolling on the set of Green Lantern, which was shot last spring.

PHOTOS: Scarlett and Ryan, the way they were

An insider on the comic book flick tells the new Us Weekly that its hunky star, 34, was "open on set that he and Scarlett [Johansson] were having problems."

Just a year and half into his marriage with 26-year-old Johansson, Reynolds "would say that she treated him badly," the insider explains. "It never seemed like she made him a priority."

PHOTOS: The year's most shocking splits

After UsMagazine.com broke the news Dec. 14, the couple confirmed their split in a public statement -- and Reynolds is now "beyond sad and depressed," another pal says.

Iron Man 2 actress Johansson, meanwhile, is less broken up about the situation. "She was disconnected and disaffected" about the split, the source says. "It was harsh."

    I can see that about her

    Scarlett is a BTCH.

    She has serious issues to have dumped such a GREAT man. He treated her like gold. She will one day regret her choice to end the marriage. My heart breaks for gentle Ryan who loved her to death. Sometimes people don't believe that they deserve happiness, maybe that was the case here. I doubt it tho, she has always seemed VERY cold and mean to him. Poor guy, he just feel for the wrong girl. Just like Jake and Reese. She didn't deserve him either. I hope and I know that Ryan will find the right girl one day and when he does discover how TRUE, compassionate love really feels...he will wonder what he ever saw in such a C---!

    Of course...I don't see the attraction/chemistry...it must have been a spur of the moment thing on his part...lol...I'm glad it's over...he deserves a classier girl

    I can totally see that. She seems like a beatch.

    To Rebecca Ferguson, Ryan and Alanis broke up in 2006 and Ryan started dating Scarlett in 2007, he didn't leave the first for the latter.

    Let me guess. Not enough of sex? She kept saying not tonight. Just a shot in the dark. Another stale celebrity gossip story.

    I like...liked her? Well anyways, I could see her being more tough than he is. He seems like a gentle, sensitive guy. It's important to have someone who can tolerate your differences esp. if ur going to marry.

  • December 21, 2010 - 5:41pm Rebecca Ferguson

    she seems kind of high maintenance for me. mind you, he split with alanis morrisette and then hooked up with scarlett. hmmmm. i dunno.

    I don't know if this story is true or not. But I do know someone who got chosen to be a "butt double" and someone else who is a nude body double on Ryan's movie the Change Up. Considering Scarlett was heard calling someone "such a jerk" on the phone, I'm willing to bet he was the one at fault, not her. Anyways just a guess.

    n he's soo cute too! who would think?

  • December 21, 2010 - 4:28pm Jamie Douglass

    It is difficult to believe that she was treating him badly. However it may be true if she's letting him go this easily. He's someone I'd certainly fight for!

    Where was the snitch when he was talking during the summer. If she was treating him so badly, think the story about "sex in trailerâ?? does not sound like it. She has been spotted regularly in Atlanta with him. This does not seem likely, Ryan is very private about his life and a close friend would not be telling this information and if he is depressed, he is still working hard in Atlanta.

  • December 21, 2010 - 2:19pm Ashley Hickam

    aww poor Ryan!! I'll make you feel better! LOL

  • December 21, 2010 - 1:10pm Julie Lirette-Sweeney

    omg!!! how can she can treat him like that! he seems nice and he is soo cute

  • December 21, 2010 - 1:09pm Diane Vl Mertz

    That is sad to hear!! She should have made him a priority!! That's what marriage is about!! I do hope he finds someone who appreciates him and treats him the way he is supposed to be treated! P. S. I am Canadian too!!

  • December 21, 2010 - 12:58pm Cinnamon Everett

    Yeah--sorry, I'm not buying this "story". This couple has proven to be WAY too private for Ryan to be "open on the set" complaining about their problems...again, not buying it...
