The ultimate definition of wit, sarcasm, and humility rolled into one, Ryan Reynolds has always leveraged his comedic intelligence in the quirkiest of ways. The Canadian actor, famed for his role as Deadpool, also boasts an extended reach in business and entrepreneurship. With several companies under his belt such as the likes of Maximum Effort and a co-owned Welsh giant in the form of Wrexham AFC, he does rely on marketing from time to time, which again, all stem from his wits.

In the latest showcase of how to make the audience enjoy an advertorial, the star just slipped into the future with a purpose.

Ryan Reynolds heads over to 2031 and pulls off a convincing enough advertorial

Despite selling off Mint Mobile, Ryan Reynolds remains its brand ambassador and creative director and his entertaining commercials are the reason. In the latest commercial advertising the company’s plans of $15 a month for individuals aged over 55, the Deadpool & Wolverine star donned a brown scarf and jacket along with gray hair to “finally qualify” for the plan as he landed in 2031 at 55 years of age.

The hilarity ensued when he remarked that there did not exist any futuristic elements on the spot. Responding to the cue, the VFX team added in a UFO shooting laser beam that looked as odd as possible to which Reynolds snarkily commented, “Yeah, that will convince them”. After that, he continued his witty nudges, suggesting that them still using the green screen seemed odd even as he captioned the post with “I’m just glad I still have my hair.”

In one such glaring display of his wit, the actor had recently managed to almost combat the flood of leaks surrounding his upcoming Marvel juggernaut.

The actor combated Deadpool & Wolverine leaks with sheer wit

Long before the recent release of the Deadpool & Wolverine trailer smashing all-time records, the film landed in trouble owing to rampant leaks. The situation became so dire that the flick’s outdoor shooting premise came under scrutiny. However, to sway the tide in his favor, Ryan Reynolds employed his sheer wit. After a letter to fans and media pages to refrain from fanning the leaks did not work much, the lead actor himself started to post the same.

However, instead of posting actual set images, Ryan Reynolds spoofed the leaks with varying hilarity. The slew of images soon drowned the actual leaks as the actor’s shares started trending. Soon enough, many had learned the lesson and the third Deadpool flick managed to wrap up its filming on a high.
