Ryan Reynolds has been busy with success both at Wrexham and in his acting career with the latest Deadpool movie having just released.
The recent on-field success at Wrexham has been huge in the club’s journey, but Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have been able to grow the Welsh club’s reputation on a global scale.
It was huge news when the owners took over at the Racecourse, with a big interest to see how the dynamic of celebrities owning a non-league club would work.
It is safe to say it has gone to plan so far, with the owners remaining keen to support manager Phil Parkinson in the coming League One campaign.
The docuseries ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ has had a huge impact on the club’s global fanbase with the US support growing year-on-year.
Reynolds has recently revealed that filming Deadpool is the only thing that can distract him from thinking about Wrexham.
However, the latest Deadpool movie hints that he can never truly switch off from thinking about the Red Dragons.
