During a recent appearance on Hot Ones, Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman discussed their experiences with movie spoilers and the challenges of filming their latest project. Reynolds revealed a clever plan he had devised to prevent spoilers for the new movie, which involved creating a fake film called Alpha Cop. The fake movie was meant to be intentionally bad, with a poster featuring the tagline 'Two Cops, One Brain. All Balls.' The idea was to surprise audiences by revealing that Alpha Cop was actually a Deadpool & Wolverine film in disguise.
Jackman shared his own past experience with leaks, recalling how X-Men Origins: Wolverine had been leaked online before its official release. The actors expressed relief that their latest project had not suffered the same fate.
As the interview progressed, Reynolds and Jackman faced the infamous Hot Ones challenge, sampling increasingly spicy hot sauces. Both actors struggled with the heat, with Jackman even breaking a sweat and tearing up from the intensity. Reynolds joked about the pain, quipping that he wasn't sure if he was sweating or peeing.
Despite their discomfort, the actors were treated to ice cream to help cool off. Jackman, in a moment of desperation, even suspected that the ice cream contained chilis. The duo's humorous reactions to the spicy challenge added an entertaining twist to their Hot Ones appearance.
