Deadpool & Wolverine is set to bring the storm of chaos anytime now as the movie awaits a release in a week. But before fans buckle up to greet the superheroes in all their glory, they might have to face them without the splendor as Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman take a trip down memory lane. Though it is already known that Reynolds went to great lengths to convince Wolverine for another ride despite his last outing with Logan, few were aware that the process caused the Deadpool actor to suffer from an acute panic episode. 

While Kevin Feige verified that Deadpool & Wolverine is in to achieve Avengers-sized success, Reynolds’ recent confession clarified it is not for the faint-hearted.

Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman recently sat down with Extra in New York City to discuss Deadpool & Wolverine ahead of its release. Jackman recalled the pivotal moment when the idea of a never-seen-before Wolverine struck him and motivated him to join Deadpool despite having called Logan his last ride. Reynolds likened the moment to "winning a lottery," but also revealed experiencing a "low-grade year-long panic attack" while writing the script featuring Wolverine.

Reynolds described it as the "scariest" thing he had done, before teasing that Wolverine "only speaks two words for every 10 that are needed." He also hinted that fans can expect a slightly different Wolverine. While the character will retain the beloved traits from the comics, Reynolds teased that a new aspect of Wolverine will be revealed, encouraging fans to approach the character without preconceived notions from previous portrayals.

Incorporating Wolverine into Deadpool’s journey was akin to single-handedly inviting a storm, but for actors Reynolds and Jackman, their bond is forged from pure camaraderie rather than panic attacks.

In their conversation with Extra about the upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine, Ryan Reynolds, and Hugh Jackman not only discussed the dynamic between the Merc with a Mouth and the adamantium-clawed superhero but also their relationship outside the superhero suits. When asked what makes their bond so “special,” Reynolds revealed that their closeness stems from their openness to discuss anything and everything without hesitation or reservations.

According to Reynolds, the key to any successful partnership or friendship is the genuine desire to see the other person succeed. Jackman agreed with Reynolds’ perspective before adding the missing touch of sarcasm that having a great friendship is even better when your friend is “really rich.” While Reynolds’ net worth certainly stands out, it remains to be seen whether Deadpool & Wolverine’s box office performance will add to their wealth, as Reynolds aims to balance his anxiety episodes with more tangible rewards.
