The X-Men star, Hugh Jackman, and Deadpool Star, Ryan Reynolds have known each other for more than a decade.
Their friendship and hilarious feud could be traced back to 2009 during the shot of the movie, X-Men Origins (2009).
In an interview in 2020 with The Daily Beast, the Australian actor, Jackman revealed the genesis of the “feud” with Reynolds.
He explained that it all started when the Wolverine actor approached the Canadian-American, Ryan Reynolds, and told him to treat his then-wife Scarlett Johansson well.

Ryan Reynolds gives a hilarious reason for why he’s so mean to Hugh Jackman all the time.
I know for a fact he’s the one who named that movie … ‘The Greatest Showman.’ Why not just call the movie Super Awesome Hugh Jackman? … I think it’s pathetic and disgusting that he called the movie that. And I think it’s pathetic and disgusting that he insists people call him ‘The Greatest Showman’ everywhere he goes, including you, just young, impressionable kids. Goodness, gracious.”
