A man with insurmountable acuity, Ryan Reynolds is the undisputed lovechild of Marvel and Fox. Fans lap the Deadpool 3 star up for lighting up with gags and trolling his wife, Blake Lively, as well as ‘frenemy’ Hugh Jackman. Despite his fun-loving, ever-charming persona, the 46-year-old is as humble as he is quick-witted. The co-owner of Wrexham AFC is also an avid supporter of human rights and people with disabilities. Frequently being the voice of those special ones, Reynolds has spoken again.

In a departure from his usual fun-poking tweets and lovesong for Wrexham, Ryan Reynolds extended his support for two extraordinary talents on a mission.

Tom Hiddleston did portray and is reprising his role as the God of Mischief with his role as Loki. However, the real-life embodiment of that mischievous cracker is Ryan Reynolds, and now his nominee. In a tweet, Reynolds highlighted the story of Welsh screenwriter, podcaster, and “mischief maker”, Ciaran Fitzgerald. Suffering from cerebral palsy, the disabled writer has paired up with Bradleigh Way, an actor with the same condition, on a mission to defeat the odds and make a short film.

In a video by BBC Radio Wales, the two determined spirits brought forth the challenges that society throws at them. In an inspirational dedication, the duo is working on making a short film come to life. A fundraiser page from them lists a ten-minute movie script that focuses on “coming out as a disabled person and unrequited queer love.” Reynolds, being a fellow artist and Welsh team Wrexham’s gatekeeper, has understandably lent his support.

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney turned real-life superheroes when they brought Wrexham AFC and the humble town out of oblivion. The duo’s unabated efforts brought over a complete revival of the town’s economy with tourism and restarting aging businesses. Along with it, the influx of stars as well as two seasons of The Welcome to Wrexham documentary made the town unanimously reciprocate on global limelight.

Reynolds has long campaigned for causes such as teaming up with non-profit charity AbleGamers, the New York Marathon, and others to advocate awareness of people with disabilities. Moreover, during his tenure as Wrexham co-chief, he has aided and recruited several such special people to pull them out of societal hindrances and give them their time to shine.
