by

For over ten years, Hugh Jackman has maintained a close friendship with Ryan Reynolds. Yet, recent events surrounding the feud between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni seem to have left the actor portraying Logan feeling somewhat irritated with his co-star from Deadpool and Wolverine.

On a Friday evening, the renowned actor staged a performance at the Radio City Music Hall in New York City, and there are reports that he subtly criticized his closest friend during the event. Following his show, Jackman took to discussing Reynolds, bringing up some behind-the-scenes anecdotes from their successful Marvel movie collaboration.

In a candid statement, the lead actor of The Greatest Showman expressed delight in working on the superhero movie and declared it to be an unforgettable experience. However, as a family man with four children, he voiced one concern, as he was also among the writers of the film.

Speaking before everyone, Jackman expressed his disappointment that Wolverine wasn’t included in the dance sequence during the film’s opening credits.

The actor expressed, “Keep it from Ryan… I don’t require being present in every movie scene. However, Ryan is the writer and if I look at the script, I find that the scene I’m not part of is actually the opening sequence, a dance number to an NSYNC song penned by Ryan.

According to a report from The Daily Mail, Jackman commented, “There’s a scene where I’m not present, and it involves dancing. Now, regarding Ryan’s skills, while he’s incredibly gifted, dancing isn’t exactly his forte.

In a playful manner, the actor from X-Men admitted that it would have been impossible for him to compete with the body double of Reynolds, who sang the song in the movie, as this individual was approximately 25 years younger.

Instead of that, to grant his desire and correct his companion’s error, the star of The Wolverine enlisted the aid of a skilled dancer, Beth Lewis, and together they performed a dance routine to the “Bye Bye Bye” tune on the stage.

Simultaneously in his professional life, Hugh Jackman has established his own theater company, preparing for a swift comeback to the stage with an impending play.
