Ryan Reynolds knows exactly how to get attention on himself. While he is constantly either promoting his upcoming film Deadpool 3 or his football club’s victories, he recently chose to kick back and watch his team play with one of his good friends and co-star. In a recent post to his Instagram, the 47-year-old actor shared a picture of himself alongside Hugh Jackman. While Golden Globes 2024 may be around the corner, Reynolds chose a Les Miserables reference as his weapon of choice.

They were both kicking back and watching Wrexham playing in the Emirates Cup. While both the men seemed to be glued to the screen, it was the father of four’s mention of his co-star’s role as Prisoner 24601 that ended up stealing the whole show. Although it may not have been the stars’ first time catching a game together, fans were more used to seeing Reynolds promoting his films instead.

In fact, for the last year that was all they could do as the Shawn Levy movie was pushed back. However, now with the project set to come out on July 26th, both Jackman and Reynolds have been spending a lot of time on set.
