Hollywood’s “craziest” best friends Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds
Star couple Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds have been close friends for many years. Their relationship is appreciated by both the public and their colleagues.
In the entertainment industry, genuine friendships between big stars are rare. A prime example of this is the friendship between two famous stars Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds. Their relationship not only started on the big screen but also grew stronger over the years.
Recounting the story of meeting his best friend to People, Ryan Reynolds shared that 17 years ago, before Ryan Reynolds became one of the top names in cinema with the role of Deadpool, he was just a rising star who had just received a big opportunity in his career when he was cast in Hugh Jackman’s “X-Men Origins: Wolverine.”
Reynolds arrived at the set in Sydney with a nervous mood and uncertain about what awaited him. “This was the biggest movie I’d ever been in,” he recalled, and he had only been cast “two or three weeks before.”
The most hilariously mischievous duo in Hollywood: Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds
In the context of the film industry being affected by the writers’ strike of 2007-2008, the script that Reynolds had at that time was incomplete, adding to his anxiety. However, on the very first day, he was welcomed by Hugh Jackman with a kind gesture. Reynolds recalled, “I heard my name, ‘Ryan!’ across the vast set. And there was Hugh. He came over, hugged me tightly, and said, ‘Welcome, everything will be fine. We’ll make you comfortable.’”
Jackman’s friendly gesture not only helped Reynolds feel at ease but also left a lasting impression of how a leader should treat those around him. “I learned a lot about what it means to lead a set by watching him,” Reynolds said.
Ryan Reynolds expressed his admiration for Hugh Jackman’s efforts to get back into shape and fully commit to the role. He shared that Jackman made a powerful impression in every fight scene, something he had never seen before. Reynolds asserted that age did not affect Jackman’s speed and incredible confidence.
Humbly accepting the praise, Jackman thanked stunt coordinator Brian Smrz for helping him with the action scenes. The actor also revealed that getting back into shape for the Wolverine role was no easy task, especially with the strict diet. He had to eat a lot to achieve the muscular physique appropriate for the character, which worried him quite a bit.
Ryan Reynolds added that Jackman’s diet included 5 to 6 meals a day, but not the kinds of food that one would typically enjoy.
The friendship between Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds is a testament to how kindness and sincerity can build lasting relationships, even in the harsh industry of Hollywood.
