Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman easily find their way into everyone’s best friendships in the Hollywood list. One of the best things to come from their friendships apart from the collection of wholesome and entertaining commercials and social media posts is the collaboration of Wolverine and Deadpool in Deadpool 3, which is currently in the works. While the two have chosen their love language to be trolling, Hugh Jackman gave a very precious gift that Reynolds often puts to use.

Reynolds may have acted as a bridge for Wolverine to cross over to Marvel, but Hugh Jackman had already done his part when he acted as a dating site for Ryan Reynolds and Shawn Levy.

Ever since they worked together on Free Guy, Ryan Reynolds, and Shawn Levy cannot help but find their way back to each other. Levy and Reynolds are now attached at the hip. And Hugh Jackman saw it coming when he introduced the two of them. In an interview with CBS News last month, the actor-director duo talked about how they first met each other through the Wolverine star. “He told me if I ever meet Ryan, and if I ever work with him, we will never stop,” Shawn Levy revealed what Jackman had said to him. While Reynolds joked, “We met on the dating site, Hugh.com,“.

While Hugh Jackman can take the ‘visionary’ title for predicting this unstoppable duo, the like-mindedness of Ryan Reynolds and Shawn Levy is quite tough to miss.
