Reynolds appeared as an adult film director in the hit film "Boogie Nights" (1997), which was considered a comeback role for him; he received 12 acting awards and 3 nominations for the role, including a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, Reynolds' first and only nomination for the award. Reynolds was offered a role in "Boogie Nights" writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson's subsequent film, "Magnolia" (1999), but he declined, saying that he hated working on "Boogie Nights" and hated Anderson.
