Ryan Reynolds Playfully Jabs Hugh Jackman Ahead Of Movie Release

Ryan Reynolds looking happy

The highly anticipated movie Deadpool & Wolverine is set to hit theaters in just a few months, and the lead actors Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman are engaging in their usual banter. The playful 'feud' between the two stars has been ongoing for quite some time, but as the release date approaches, Reynolds has taken the opportunity to poke fun at his friend.

Jackman's return to the role of Wolverine came as a surprise to many fans, considering he had previously retired the character after the release of Logan in 2017. Reynolds, who successfully brought Deadpool to the big screen around the same time, has jokingly called Jackman a 'coward' and a 'liar' for coming out of retirement. Despite the playful insults, it's clear that the two actors share a strong bond.

In a recent interview with AP Entertainment, Reynolds playfully teased Jackman, hinting at the unexpected return of Wolverine in the upcoming movie. Reynolds quipped, 'Well, I mean, I think we all can now see that Hugh is a liar, you know? A bald-faced horrible coward and a liar. Here he is, back again. You'll have to find out how he comes back, because that’s one of the most fun aspects of the movie.'

While some fans enjoy the lighthearted rivalry between Reynolds and Jackman, others find it tiresome. However, the buzz surrounding their collaboration in Deadpool & Wolverine continues to grow as the release date draws near.

Despite initial doubts from Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige about Jackman's return as Wolverine, the multiverse concept has paved the way for a new iteration of the character. Feige had advised Jackman against reprising the role, citing the perfect ending of Logan. Nevertheless, the unique storyline of Deadpool & Wolverine promises to offer a fresh take on the beloved character without undermining his previous appearances.

With Deadpool & Wolverine poised to make a splash at the box office on July 26, fans are eagerly anticipating the dynamic on-screen chemistry between Reynolds and Jackman. The movie's blend of humor, action, and unexpected twists is sure to captivate audiences and leave a lasting impression on the Marvel cinematic universe.
