I dont think the argument that WBVC and Som are saying is whether he is a lead man or not, its whether he is suited to the role of Jordan. I mean, Clint Eastwood is a great lead actor, but would you cast him as Robin or Spiderman for instance.
Hal's character is too straight laced to be played by Reynolds.
My point was that I think the buzz on him now (post Bullock movie) is that he can play traditional "straight-laced leading man" roles.
