It’s a story as old as time; boy meets girl, girl goes missing in a time-space anomaly, boy travels back in time to find her, bumps into his 12-year old self, boys travel back in time once more, boys reunite with their deceased father, find girl, and all four team up to prevent the end of the world. Quite honestly, I’m growing tired and weary of these original, well-written, star-studded, heart-warming, sci-fi adventures that critics are already calling an instant classic. However, if you’re the type of person that likes fun and entertainment, check out our guide on how to watch The Adam Project online.
In The Adam Project, Ryan Reynolds takes on the lead role of time-traveling fighter pilot Adam Reed, who accidentally crash-lands in 2022 before teaming up with his younger self (played by newcomer Walker Scobell) on a mission to save the future. The film caps off a trilogy of Netflix Originals starring Reynolds, who previously appeared in Michael Bay’s action-packed 6 Underground and the massively popular Red Notice alongside Dwayne Johnson and Gal Gadot. Reynolds and Scobell are joined by an all-star cast, including Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Garner and Zoe Saldaña, for a quick-witted blast through time that channels the magic of 80s classics like E.T. and Flight of the Navigator.

How to watch The Adam Project while abroad
Netflix is currently available in over 190 countries, and as such no matter where you are you’re likely to be able to hop online and watch your favorite shows and movies. However, because of territorial licensing, not every country’s Netflix library is the same. Thankfully, whether you’re watching in the U.S. or Singapore, The Adam Project will be available to stream across all territories. However, if you are abroad and looking to get online, a VPN is a great way to help keep your connection safe and your data secure.
A VPN (or Virtual Private Network) is a service that provides you with a protected connection when using public networks, giving you peace of mind about the safety of your data and shielding your identity from websites or apps that wish to track you. Public Wi-Fi offers almost no safeguards against packet sniffing and man-in-the-middle attacks, which leaves your information ripe for the picking should you be targeted by ne'er-do-wells and data snoopers alike. The best VPNs encrypt your data to maintain complete security and anonymity, even from your internet service provider.
If you’re planning to connect to your favorite websites and services while abroad and are likely to rely on public networks like airport or hotel Wi-Fi, download a VPN today and keep your data safe wherever you go.
