Ryan Reynolds Trolls HisDeadpool & WolverineCo-star, Hugh Jackman in a New X Post
Ryan Reynolds, known for his quick wit and sharp humor, has once again taken the Internet to storm with his new comedic stunt, which poked at hisDeadpool & Wolverineco-star,Hugh Jackman.
“You won’t appreciate this for 20 years”: Ryan Reynolds Pays Homage to Hugh Jackman’s One Movie That Fans Don’t Talk About Enough and It’s Not X-Men Origins: Wolverine
The Proposalactor shared a satirical post in which he recounted his conversation with his co-star, who suggested a title change for the movie.
In a post on hisXaccount, Reynolds described a typical morning conversation with the Wolverine actor who proposed the title“Absolutely Wolvie,”humorously presented on a piece of toilet paper written in mascara.
While this conversation might sound quite absurd, Reynolds’ humorous post took a whimsical turn as he continued calling Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige to discuss the proposed title.
Check out the tweet here:
Yesterday Hugh and I had one of our many difficult morning conversations while I supervised his hair application. He expressed interest in changing the title of our film from “Deadpool & Wolverine” to something snappier. He slowly slid a piece of folded toilet paper across the…pic.twitter.com/YgK5vwE0gx
The Deadpool star added his unique humor, by describing Feige’s reaction to the proposed title change in an exaggerated manner. He wrote,
I hit him with the new title. He said, “Ryan, a title change this late in the game is not only impossible, but you’d need a melon-baller lobotomy’ and a big, magic dumb-dumb wand to even attempt such a malignantly stupid and totally unforced error”. His words, not mine.
Not only did he subtly take a funny dig at his co-star, he went on to express the exaggerated reaction of the Marvel Boss to Jackman’s suggestion. He went on to poke fun at the dynamics of Hollywood filmmaking while paying homage to iconic actor, Robert Downey Jr.
A Playful Nod to Robert Downey Jr.
The real gem of the post lies in Reynolds giving a playful nod to MCU star,Robert Downey Jr. He garnered global acclaim for portraying the role of Tony Stark aka Iron Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Having kickstartedhis superhero journeyin the early 2000s, his character was given an eternal rest inAvengers: Endgame(2019) as the character sacrificed himself to save the universe.

By adding that he’s not a great listener, Reynolds claimed that he heard the MCU boss saying,“You have my full support! And the full support of Marvel and its parent company, Robert Downey Jr.”
Not only serves as a nod to the Oscar-winning actor but it also highlights the 47-year-old actor’s wit who deeply understands his audiences.
This post comes after the London premiere ofDeadpool & Wolverineon Thursday, where the titular stars hit the red carpet alongside Peggy who plays Dogpool, a parallel reality version of Deadpool that was turned into a canine.
