Everyone has that one person who they go to when the going gets tough. And while our favorite celebrities have a plethora of people waiting to be their BFFs, a handful already have one. Fitting the description is the dynamic duo of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. The Wrexham co-owners form perhaps one of the most interesting friendships fans have witnessed in recent times. Furthermore, both actors have similar energies, making the bond even stronger. And recently McElhenney’s long-time friend Charlie Day had a few things to say about the blossoming friendship between the duo.
It seems like the friendship between Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney might just be Charlie Day’s villain origin story. We are no strangers to the incredible bond McElhenney shares with The Super Mario Bros. Movie star. The duo has been best friends for nearly 15 odd years. Furthermore, they worked together on the blockbuster show It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia for seven seasons. And recently during his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Day was asked about his views on McElhenney’s new best friend Reynolds. The American actor had a hilarious reply as he admitted that he envies the duo’s bond. Furthermore, he added, “He is trying to trade up on me, you know?”

To spice things up, Kimmel told Day how Reynolds’ influence was showing in McElhenney’s behavior. The talk show host revealed that McElhenney now says football instead of soccer and can even speak Welsh. However, interestingly, the Horrible Bosses actor added that it was not the sport that made him jealous.
Elsewhere during the interview, Day revealed that it was all in good spirits and he was proud of his best friend. But seeing McElhenney be best friends with a “super handsome movie star” irked him a little. He hilariously confessed how it was time for Reynolds to stop.
