In a cheeky shoutout on Instagram, Taylor Swift expressed her support for Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman ahead of the release of Deadpool & Wolverine. On July 25, just a day before the highly anticipated film’s release, Swift took to her stories to share her excitement and some playful banter about the movie.
In her post, the pop sensation — who is close friends with Reynolds and his wife, actress Blake Lively — misleads us with her praise.
“Over the past few years I have watched one of my best friends on this planet pour every bit of his heart, soul, sweat, time, energy, jokes, pain, joy, rebellion, darkness, and magic into this film. He’s created the best work of his life, and this film feels like an actual joy portal, a wild escape from reality, and an abs sandwich. I don’t know how he did it.” Swift ended the tribute with a twist, “But that’s just Hugh for you!”

The post was accompanied by a group photo featuring Hugh Jackman, whom she described as one of her “best friends,” along with director Shawn Levy, Lively and Reynolds. Swift quipped, “These other randoms crashed the photo and we were too polite to ask them to leave,” referencing the presence of Reynolds and Lively.
Swift concluded her message with a nod to her friendship with the Hollywood power couple, saying, “Shout out to Wade Wilson, aka my godkids’ sperm donor!” She included a link for fans to purchase tickets, urging fans not to miss the movie.
Despite rumors of a Swift’s cameo as a potential Lady Deadpool, Reynolds shut down rumours to E! News that Swift would not appear in the film.
Deadpool & Wolverine, directed by Shawn Levy, is the thirty-fourth entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Meanwhile, Swift’s record-breaking The Eras Tour will go down in history as the highest-grossing tour ever, with 13 dates still left to go the European leg of the tour.
