The Hollywood takeover has had a huge impact on the playing squad with new experiences made possible in the rise from the National League.
With the League One campaign set to start next month, Wrexham have arrived in the United States for their Wrex-coast pre-season tour.
The Red Dragons are set to play Premier League opposition in AFC Bournemouth and former European Champions Chelsea.
Since the Hollywood takeover, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have seen great success with Phil Parkinson securing back-to-back promotions to League One.
Many players from higher divisions dropped down to join the project but didn’t imagine the true scale of the Wrexham story.
The owners’ docuseries ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ has added a global reach with the Red Dragons’ fanbase in the US continuing to grow.
The players have seen great changes on the pitch, but it is away from the football that has shocked some of the Wrexham stars.

Ollie Palmer reflects on life at Wrexham under Ryan Reynold and Rob McElhenney ownership
Club record signing Ollie Palmer is part of the squad that travelled to the US for the pre-season tour.
The former AFC Wimbledon striker has been a huge part of Wrexham’s recent success and is looking forward to the club’s return to the US.
After experiencing the US fanbase last year, the towering striker has reflected on the impact of Reynolds and McElhenney at the club.
Speaking to the Los Angeles Times, Palmer said: “Ryan and Rob have created a documentary, which has done extremely well. But that is on the side.
“Ultimately, we do just want to be players, but obviously when someone comes up and they say [nice] things, it makes you feel good.
“That’s why I think sports are important: it changes people’s lives, it gives people a purpose. It’s great to be able to do that for people.”
Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney keen to support Wrexham players
The Red Dragons have been on an incredible journey so far with a rapid rise to League One.
However, the story of Wrexham is a little unprecedented with the owners having a celebrity status.
The North Wales club have a global appeal with the fan base continuing to grow.
The owners have been able to offer a unique experience for the players with the docuseries adding notoriety to the club.
Both Reynolds and McElhenney have made it a life-changing experience for players, with many not expecting to play Premier League clubs on tours for the US.
Their ownership of Wrexham has been methodical and they recognise the pressure that fame will bring to the players.
If the club continue its rise, the players will need the continuing support from the ownership as the Wrexham set their sights on higher divisions in the future.
