Ryan Reynolds says viewing the Super Bowl might not go exactly as he plans.

While appearing virtually as a guest on Good Morning America on Thursday morning, the 44-year-old actor detailed his plans for the big game on Sunday night, telling GMA co-host George Stephanopoulos that he is prepared that he may not even be able to watch the game altogether.

"I'm gonna watch the game, I have three daughters, so [wife] Blake [Lively] and myself and the kids will sit down and watch the game for about four, four and a half seconds, before it's switched over to Paw Patrol," he jokes. "And then I'll be watching the game from my phone."

Adding to his hilarious take on his plans, Reynolds says: "Or, I may just wander outside and stare at the sun directly ... I don't know. Anything can happen Super Bowl Sunday. We'll see what the weather brings."

Watch 'The Croods: A New Age' stars Ryan Reynolds and Emma Stone answer questions from kids on everything from their favorite thing to cook to their favorite Taylor Swift song and what they love movies they love to watch with their families.

Reynolds went on to share that something he cherishes the most about being a dad is spending time with his family.

"I try to be as present as possible. I shoot movies and my wife shoots movies and we go travel all over the place and we just all go together," he continued. "I think that that's been the best part of it. We really don't spend a lot of time apart. I get to spend a lot of time with my girls."

The proud dad of three also had a sweet response when he asked whether his wife and daughters are the "superheroes" in his family.

"No joke, they're the most capable people I know," he said. "If anything got crazy or scary in my life, they're the first people that I would lean on. They have wisdom and strength, they're calm under fire, they have courage under fire β€” so yeah, to me [that] sounds like a true story."
