Ryan Reynolds Masters a Game So Well He Could Outplay Every MCU Star, Even Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine
Actor Ryan Reynolds is busy promoting his upcoming team-up superhero film Deadpool & Wolverine, co-starring longtime friend Hugh Jackman.
Ryan Reynolds’ impending entry into the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe will fully materialize when Deadpool & Wolverine is released in theaters later this year. The hotly anticipated film will also see Hugh Jackman return to his iconic role as Wolverine. The film’s trailer has also generated plenty of hype for the team-up between the two heroes that will lead them to the MCU.
In real life, Reynolds has proved time and again that he is better than most of his co-stars at one game. Reynolds’ skills in this game appear unmatched and even Jackman’s Wolverine and other popular MCU heroes might struggle against the Merc with a Mouth actor. Here is everything you need to know about Reynolds’ hidden prowess at one game.
Ryan Reynolds Could Beat Hugh Jackman and Other MCU Stars in a Staring Contest
Actor Ryan Reynolds is known for playing Wade Wilson / Deadpool in the Deadpool movies. The first installment in the franchise premiered in 2016, and emerged as a major commercial success, grossing $782.8 million at the global box office. While promoting the film, Reynolds did an interview with YouTuber KSI.
During the interview, Reynolds and KSI faced off against each other in a staring contest, which the former won with relative ease. Furthermore, while promoting the second installment, which was released in 2018, Reynolds engaged in a staring contest with actor Josh Brolin.
The Deadpool actor also won this contest going without blinking for almost 3 minutes. Therefore, it is evident that Reynolds’ skills in a staring contest are unmatchable. Moreover, Reynolds defeating the Thanos actor proves he might just be able to beat anyone at the game, including other MCU heroes and even Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine.
Ryan Reynolds Reveals Secret to Friendship With Deadpool & Wolverine Co-star Hugh Jackman
Given Reynolds’ banter with Jackman, he should continue the trend of doing staring contests while promoting the Deadpool movies by challenging his co-star to one. The promotional material for Deadpool & Wolverine has shown off plenty of chemistry between the two stars.
However, seeing Reynolds and Jackman in character, and having a staring contest would add to the fun of a team-up movie like Deadpool & Wolverine. In a recent interview, Reynolds spoke about his longtime friendship with Jackman that began on the sets of X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
I think the secret sauce to a long-lasting Hollywood friendship is not too dissimilar to having a partner or a marriage.
Reynolds made the above statement regarding his nearly seventeen-year-long friendship with Jackman. The actor also added that Jackman was one of the few friends he counted on for real advice and vice verse.
The two stars share a bond that goes beyond their on-screen performance. Despite the prickly nature of the relationship between Deadpool and Wolverine, the actors behind the Marvel characters share a deep respect for one another, making their on and off-screen banter all the more enjoyable.
