As a hardcore gamer and avid follower of Hollywood news, I have to admit that Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman’s playful feud has always brought a smile to my face. Their friendship, disguised as a rivalry, is the epitome of a beautiful bromance in the entertainment industry. Recently, Reynolds shared an endearing story on Sirius XM about an unexpected encounter with Jackman and his kids while watching “The Greatest Showman,” which only solidified my admiration for their bond.
The playful rivalry between Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman is nearly iconic nowadays. For years, fans have delighted in watching the two trade barbs with one another on social media and in public. But beneath the surface of their seemingly endless banter lies a deep friendship. This bond has brought about not just amusing moments but heartwarming ones as well. In fact, Reynolds recently recounted a touching tale: he came home to discover his kids joyfully singing and dancing to The Greatest Showman with Jackman.
Lately, the two on-again, off-again friends of mine, Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds, have been making the rounds to promote their exciting new project: the upcoming Marvel film, “Deadpool & Wolverine.” During an interview with Sirius XM, they sat down with the director Shawn Levy to discuss this long-awaited movie. When the topic of music came up, the interviewer mentioned that “The Greatest Show” from “The Greatest Showman” is featured in our film’s soundtrack. After Hugh shared how much he and his colleagues enjoy this circus-themed movie, Ryan chimed in with a fond memory: my kids and I once had an amazing movie night with him, watching “The Greatest Showman” together.
In my house on Hudson Street, I frequently find myself walking in to the sound of “The Greatest Showman” playing. Upon entering the room, I’d be greeted by my kids engrossed in the movie, belting out the songs, with Hugh joining them in animated role-play. The sight was incredibly touching and heartwarming, leaving me speechless and unable to replicate that moment. As a result, I have begun anew in a foreign land, establishing a secret family, much like what’s portrayed in movies. (This is based on a real experience, I assure you.)
From my perspective as a gamer, Ryan Reynolds always seems prepared for the unexpected. Yet, I can’t fathom him anticipating walking into his home to witness his supposed rival performing scenes from a 2017 musical film for his children. Honestly, it’s an adorably surprising scenario, and I bet that moment will be a cherished memory for Reynolds’ kids. Moreover, his description of the incident as both “heartbreaking” and “beautiful” strikes me as deeply moving. I’m thrilled he values this experience so highly, even if he might find comfort from his close friends about it (though that last part was a jest).
As a dedicated gamer, I can’t help but reminisce about “The Greatest Showman,” which has been a cherished title in my collection for nearly seven years now. With an unforgettable cast led by the captivating performances of Hugh Jackman, Michelle Williams, Zac Efron, and Zendaya, it’s no wonder this movie continues to leave a lasting impression on fans. And let’s not forget about those irresistible tunes – “This Is Me” being one of them – that earned an Oscar nomination!
Hugh Jackman: By the way, we didn’t rent it. We bought it on your account.
Ryan Reynolds: Oh, thank you. Thank you. I’ve been avoiding that for years.
HJ: Residuals.
RR: Yeah, I live to line your pockets, Jackman.
Mr. Jackman is currently experiencing financial success, and a potential second “Greatest Showman” movie could further boost his wealth. Jackman is open to the idea of a sequel, but he’s not solely motivated by money. He would consider it if there’s an intriguing storyline. With a history of sequels under his belt, Jackman isn’t new to this territory, as he’s set to reappear as Wolverine in the upcoming Marvel movie. Whether or not “The Greatest Showman 2” becomes a reality remains to be seen. In the meantime, Jackman has the upper hand over Ryan Reynolds thanks to their musical jam session with his kids.
In the upcoming film “Deadpool & Wolverine,” opening in theaters on July 26, 2024, you have the opportunity to witness the charming yet complex performances of the two captivating male leads at their finest and least so.
