Ryan Reynolds and Taika Waititi have worked together in a DC comic movie called Green Lantern. But both the actors gracefully deny their involvement in the movie.

He says he knows Ryan for a long time. They always try to meet up or connect or work together, but somehow it didn’t work out. Now that they’re in this movie together, he says, “And finally get that chance to actually be in the same thing together, for the first time ever is super exciting.”
