The 'Deadpool' actor dissuades people from giving the 'Logan' star awards while also promoting the latter's new political drama in a fake attack ad.
- Nov 3, 2018
AceShowbiz - Ryan Reynolds continues to show off his bromance with Hugh Jackman by disguising a promo for latter's movie "The Front Runner" as a spoof awards season attack ad. The Canadian hunk begins by notifying people that "The Greatest Showman" actor has "fooled some people into thinking he deserves an award" for his performance in "The Front Runner".
Claiming that the Australian actor has been "hiding" some facts about himself, Reynolds reveals that Jackman's real name is actually Hugh Michael Jackman, something which everybody will find out when looking for his profile on Wikipedia.com.
He adds, "Hugh Michael speaks with a charming accent, but he's actually from Milwaukee." He goes on saying that Jackman "walked off the job on Wolverine, adding to unemployment," presumably referring to the 50-year-old's decision to hang his adamantium claws in "Logan".
"Is this type of amazing actor and nice person we want delivering a preachy liberal speech this awards season?" Reynolds asks, before pitching himself, "Or maybe there's a real foreigner from a border country who would really love it... a lot."
He ends the video by urging people to watch Jackman's political drama "The Front Runner", but claims that it's not Ryan Reynolds who narrates the video despite his apparent voice.
Jackman has responded to Reynolds' fake attack by taking the "HIGH ROAD." He posted on Twitter a video of him picking up dog poop off a photo of Reynolds wearing his Deadpool costume.

Reynolds previously jokingly accused Jackman of faking his nationality in a response to the "Les Miserables" actor's birthday post for him.
This man is a monster. He’s not even from Australia. He’s from Milwaukee. https://t.co/CxHceP4d9L
