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.
Kyle is a lot more lightweight, but I still dont think Reynolds would suit the role.
Gardner I can see, especially as Guys personality has fluctuated so much over the years, that you could probably incorporate various traits that would match Reynolds style.
