Ryan Reynolds Had Enough of Hugh Jackman’s Flirty Nature
Ryan Reynolds is known for his sharp, quick-witted humor that he inculcates in almost every situation, be it off-screen. It’s not an exaggeration to state that humor has been a significant part of his public persona.
However, apart from his humor, he is well-known for his friendly rivalry with Deadpool & Wolverine actor, Hugh Jackman, who happens to be his best friend in real life.
The duo has continued to mock each other on several occasions, which kickstarted years ago. But, the duo smartly inculcated their banter into the promotion of their movies, just like what they have been doing while promoting their superhero stint.

In a recent appearance on Alison Hammond’s This Morning show, the banter took a surprising twist. While the Deadpool star talked about rooting for the Logan actor since their meeting, this led the host to express her admiration for the latter. Known for sharing a playful chemistry with Hammond, Jackman went ahead to poke fun at Reynolds, which prompted the former to comment,
I am no longer singing at your funeral…This man is pampered by the softest feather duster in show business.
Reynolds’ playful remark to Jackman’s continued teasing only made the interview entertaining. The Fall Guy‘s hilarious remark subtly poked fun at his new divorce from his wife after 27 years.

In a shocking turn of events, back in September 2023, the Wolverine actor and Deborra-Lee Furness amicably ended their marriage of 27 years. Despite their split, they remained close friends as the latter was in attendance at her ex’s 55th birthday celebration back in October last year.
Since then, the duo have been spotted in solo outlets with the X-Men actor hanging out with Reynolds and Lively as per PEOPLE. As for his ex-wife, she has reflected on their split, telling the outlet in another interview, “[I learned] that I’m strong and resilient. And that I — we are all a constant evolution.”
Reynolds hasn’t shied away from poking fun at his friend’s divorce, keeping it playful. Even director Shawn Levy set the facts straight about a specific Deadpool line in which he stated, ‘He’s normally shirtless, but he’s let himself go since the divorce.’ Levy explained that Jackman had already passed those dialogues, telling Variety,
Ryan or I would always run the lines by performers and make sure everyone felt comfortable and that we were never punching down. It was all in a playful spirit that everyone felt good about.
By incorporating his personal experience on the camera, he only added dimension to his character, making the humor more resonating with viewers. Their team-up together is garnering immense praise and commercial success, as the movie crosses $1B at the worldwide box office, as per the Numbers.
Deadpool & Wolverine is running in theatres.
