Taylor Swift jokes that Ryan Reynolds is the sperm donor for her godchildren
Taylor Swift, the beloved pop icon, is well-known for her adoration of anti-heroes, which makes her recent praise for the new Deadpool movie no surprise. The added connection of Ryan Reynolds, one of her closest friends, producing and starring in the latest installment of the franchise, adds another layer of excitement.
On a Thursday, Swift took to her Instagram Story to shower the film with accolades. She shared a photo of herself with Reynolds, his wife Blake Lively, and their Deadpool & Wolverine co-star Hugh Jackman from an October Kansas City Chiefs Game.
Expressing her admiration, Swift wrote, “Over the past few years, I have watched one of my best friends pour every bit of his heart, soul, and energy into this film. He’s created the best work of his life, and this film feels like an actual joy portal, a wild escape from reality, and an abs sandwich.”
Swift further humorously added, “I don’t know how he did it, but that’s just Hugh for you!” before urging fans to grab tickets if they “like things that are unspeakably awesome.” She also gave a shoutout to Reynolds’ character in the film, playfully referring to him as “Wade Wilson, aka my godkids’ sperm donor!”
Reynolds quickly reposted Swift’s praise on his own Story, jokingly suggesting that it may have ‘killed’ Hugh Jackman and declaring himself ‘dead’ with a skull-face emoji.
Reynolds and Lively, who share four children, have been close friends with Swift for years. Swift even included the names of their three oldest kids in her songs from the album Folklore. Their fun dynamic has been showcased in various instances, such as Reynolds borrowing Swift’s cats’ names for his Deadpool suit and Swift sporting a tee with those names in the Deadpool 2 movie.
In a recent SiriusXM Town Hall, Reynolds amusingly shared that he made a t-shirt with Swift’s cats’ names on it and was ‘sued’ by her, joking about her powerful legal team. This playful banter between the friends adds to their endearing relationship.
Swift’s recent post has sparked rumors among fans about a possible cameo in the Deadpool & Wolverine movie. Reynolds has subtly addressed these rumors in interviews, teasing the possibility but ultimately downplaying the speculation.
Despite the ongoing rumors, Reynolds jokingly dismissed any confirmed appearance by Swift in the film in a recent interview, highlighting her comedic potential and friendship. The playful exchanges between Swift and Reynolds continue to entertain fans and showcase their solid friendship.
