Reynolds' brand of humor is perfect for the character and a huge part of why the Merc With a Mouth has become so popular. Reynolds is one of the writers for bothDeadpool 2andDeadpool & Wolverine, and the actor knows what are his favorite lines from one of theMCU’s best movies.
Speaking withVariety,Ryan Reynolds revealed that a Hugh Jackman scene features his favorite lines he wrote fromDeadpool & Wolverine. According to the star, the scene in question is the one where Wolverine is harsh when talking to Deadpool in the car. While his character is quite hurt by what Wolverine says, Reynolds thinks those lines are his favorite fromDeadpool & Wolverine"because you see what a raw, visceral, powerhouse of an actor Hugh Jackman is." The scene shows the emotional potential the characters have together, and aDeadpool & Wolverinesequelcould explore more of that. Check out the full quote below:
“The thing I’m probably most proud of was the Wolverine speech in the van where he just tears Deadpool a new one. To me, it’s one of the most beautiful scenes in the movie because you see what a raw, visceral, powerhouse of an actor Hugh Jackman is. But you also see the roles reversed. You see a character who is never verbose, who is a Clint Eastwood archetype, suddenly going, ‘Oh yeah, man? Well, I can talk too.'”

It is interesting that the Wolverine monologue is so beloved by Reynolds to the point that those are his favorite lines to have written for the film. WhileDeadpool & Wolverinefeatures the characters as co-leads, the movie is part of Reynolds' Deadpool franchise. However, the actor has no problem propping up other characters and actors despite being the one to play Wade Wilson.Reynolds has praised many stars fromDeadpool & Wolverine’s cast, which includes the actor asking for solo movies for Wesley Snipes' Blade and Channing Tatum’s Gambit.

More directly,Reynolds' comments show how much he trusts and respects Hugh Jackman as an actor. The star has been playing Wolverine for 24 years, becoming synonymous with the character. Since superhero movies often get overlooked at awards ceremonies, an actor who has devoted such a huge part of his career to them could be as well. That is why Reynolds is so proud of the Wolverine monologue he wrote forDeadpool & Wolverine, as it perfectly showcases just how talented of an actor Jackman is beyond the action part of the job that often gets the most talk.
Our Take On Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool & Wolverine Comments
The Actor’s Favorite Deadpool & Wolverine Lines Are Perfect
Wolverine’s dialogue in the car made for one of the most impactful scenes inDeadpool & Wolverine. I think Reynolds hit the reason for that on the head with his comments. The scene allowed Jackman to flex his acting skills in a way that he normally does not get to do with Wolverine. Having someone like Deadpool, who is known to never stop talking, being completely silent after Wolverine’s lines shows just how huge of a moment it was. Hopefully, Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman will team up as the characters again afterDeadpool & Wolverineto continue that dynamic.
