Fans are on the edge of their seats for the summer blockbuster Deadpool & Wolverine, featuring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. Yet, it is not just their on-screen antics that had everyone talking. It is also their off-screen bromance, particularly when Rob McElhenney joins the fun. The genuine affection and lighthearted banter between these three is as entertaining as their on-screen performances. Just a few hours back, Hugh Jackman shared a touching post dedicated to Rob McElhenney.

This, however, left Ryan Reynolds feeling somewhat on the outside, yet he managed to find his own avenue to feel included.

Ryan Reynolds opted for Photoshop as his solution

Hugh Jackman recently shared a sweet picture with Rob McElhenney, captioning it with ‘This guy. One of the best human beings. Ever“. Shortly after the photo surfaced, Ryan Reynolds took to his Instagram to share a Photoshop edit of the picture, where a fan had hilariously inserted Reynolds’ face into the frame. The fan wrote for the Deadpool lead, “I got you“. In response, Reynolds captioned his story with the hashtag “hurtful“.

Reynolds and Jackman’s friendly rivalry, born from their days filming 2009’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine, has turned into a series of playful exchanges and humorous jabs across social media. However, the addition of McElhenney into Reynolds’ circle, particularly through their joint venture in buying the Wrexham football club, has brought a fresh dynamic. Jackman’s affectionate gesture towards McElhenney, without mentioning Reynolds, suggests a strengthening bond that is beyond their professional affiliations.

In fact, the highly anticipated movie, Deadpool & Wolverine, carries the same underlying theme of friendship, something even filmmaker Shawn Levy has been dropping hints about all along.

Deadpool & Wolverine is all about brotherhood 

Last month, Shawn Levy touched hearts on Instagram with two snapshots capturing the trio of director-actors hugging each other. One of the photos was before the wrapping of Deadpool & Wolverine and one was after. Captioned “Started with friendship. Ended with brotherhood,” the post, filled with genuine smiles, resonated deeply with fans. It was also a celebration of the director’s joy in reuniting the iconic frenemy duo after nearly fifteen years since their last joint venture in 2009.

Furthermore, the franchise has also been introducing friendship bracelets as part of its promotional strategy for the movie. This has sparked speculation about the possibility of Taylor Swift joining the franchise as well. However, fans will have to wait until July 26th when the movie premieres to uncover the truth. For now, the banter on social media between Ryan Reynolds and his pals is entertaining enough for fans.
