Lorraine Kelly was forced to censor Ryan Reynolds after the actor let slip a swear word in the middle of her ITV show.
Lorraine, 62, was interviewing the A List actor to discuss his brand new time-travelling flick The Adam Project when he dropped a curse word on the breakfast show.
The duo were chatting over the Deadpool actor's latest Hollywood film, and jokingly he described his teenage co-star Walker Scobell as a "b******" forcing ITV to rapidly bleep the world out.
As reported in The Mirror, Lorraine told Ryan: “I love how you referenced movies like ET and Back to the Future. It has got a lot of heart, but it’s funny, it’s snappy, it’s clever, it’s silly and I like that too.”
She then asked: “What about your little co-star? He is a bit of a scene-stealer.”
Ryan, 45, then cheekily replied: “He is. That cheeky little b******, I’ll tell you that much.”
The film sees Ryan play time-travelling fighter pilot Adam Reed, who teams up with his 12-year-old self, played by Walker, for a mission to save the future.
Ryan continued: “There’s no stopping that kid. He’s amazing. We read hundreds and hundreds of kids for that role and I think the second sentence out of Walker’s mouth, we knew that he was the guy.
"Not only is he an incredible actor, he’s also an incredible mimic. He could mimic my cadence and delivery in ways that were kind of baffling.”
Ryan added “so many things” in the film echo his own life and his relationship with his father, James Chester Reynolds, who tragically passed away in 2015.
Ryan said: “I had a lot of stories I told myself about him that corroborated my own shortcomings and made excuses for things in my life I didn’t want to confront and the movie really tackles that head on.
“Sometimes those stories aren’t necessarily true. I had that moment in my adult life where I asked if that story is really true - somewhere between superhero and supervillain are our parents.
"They’re right in the middle. They’re human beings doing the best with what they have and that’s no exception in my family.”
This comes as the actor and his wife Blake Lively promised to donate funds to help support the people of Ukraine in the wake of Russia's attacks on the country.
The Hollywood couple have pledged to match donations up to $1 million made to help refugees fleeing their homes.
Lorraine airs weekdays at 9am on ITV.
