Beyond the Deadpool-Verse, Ryan Reynolds Is Hoping for Another Blockbuster Season With Wrexham FC
Ryan Reynolds, after hitting the ball out of the park with his Hollywood ventures, decided to try an entirely new park and a very different ball. This time around, he took Rob McElhenney to an English Football Club to basically commercially adopt Wrexham AFC. It has been two years of tough parenting for the Hollywood buddies until the recent season in 2023, where they earned a promotion. There are layers to why Wrexham AFC’s promotion to the EFL League 2 is monumental. But perhaps, the topmost layer will be that it is their first big promotion since the overtake.
As the actor finally achieves a big feat as a football club owner, his fans are delighted as this means that the actor can finally focus on Deadpool 3. And while he has made it to the sets, Ryan Reynolds has sketched up some big plans for Wrexham AFC for their upcoming season.

At this point, it is hard to capsulate what Ryan Reynolds does with one particular occupation. As he is busy filming with Wolverine for Deadpool 3, Reynolds has also announced a unique show, all the while planning to “win the league” as per Jacob Mendy to The Leader. It seems like the proverbial defeat of juggling too many balls at once is an unknown concept to the actor. Or perhaps, the recent extension of Ben Foster’s contract has given the team just the right motivation.
For Jacob Mendy, who will be playing in League 2 for the first time since 2008, it is an opportunity of a lifetime. The player held his first league cup with Wrexham and had the “best trip of his life,” with the Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney sponsored Las Vegas trip.
Jacob Mendy has stated the club’s ambition to aim high as one of the main reasons he identifies with them. However, one wonders if it is possible for the club to actually score another promotion in a consecutive season.

Can Wrexham FC get another promotion this season?
The club is slated to play friendlies with Manchester United and Chelsea for now. However, with Jacob Mendy’s statement and the effective signing of Ben Foster, it seems that they have a clear plan in place for the next season. While it could be regarded as aiming high, Wrexham FC is pretty spot on in predicting a promotion this season.

Unlike the previous league, League 2 allows for four teams to make the jump. And with how splendidly they accumulated 111 points in the non-league, it won’t be a bad idea to purchase Red Dragon merchandise.
Do you think Ryan Reynolds and team can get promoted again this season? Let us know in the comments below.
