If you didn’t know, the excellent Deadpool and Deadpool 2 were recently added to Disney Plus’ library - which is perfect timing as Ryan Reynold’s foul-mouthed merc is soon set to join the MCU. Deadpool 3 will still be R-rated but the self-aware “fish-out-of-water” story will explore the character’s sudden addition to the MCU. In the meantime though, Reynolds met up with Deadpool in real life and the results are hilarious.
Take a look at the moment Ryan Reynolds met Deadpool below.
Cosplayer funkstercosplay met the actor at Wrexham AFC’s ground, The Racecourse Ground, in Wales. As you may know, Reynolds is now the joint owner of Wrexham after buying the football club alongside actor Rob McElhenney back in November 2020.

During a recent trip to the ground, funkstercosplay finally met his idol, noting “so this just happened.” After seeing the cosplayer, Reynolds instantly burst out laughing declaring, “It’s like looking in a mirror.” The duo stopped to pose for a number of photos together.
Funkstercosplay’s efforts don’t end there though. The cosplayer has taken the merc with a mouth to a number of conventions, dazzling other cosplayers with his spot-on mannerisms and jokes. Getting the seal of approval from the real Deadpool though must’ve been a big pinch-me moment. Well deserved.
