“I’m buying a round for everyone in here.”
Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds popped into a Wrexham pub with celebrity friends including Channing Tatum and offered to get the drinks in.
Deadpool star Reynolds, who co-owns League One side Wrexham AFC, surprised customers when he turned up in the Fat Boar on Friday night with Magic Mike star Tatum, who also appeared in the latest Deadpool and Wolverine movie.
And they were joined by fellow actor Brandon Sklenar who starred in It Ends With Us alongside Reynolds’ wife Blake Lively.
The three celebrities posed for photos with fans.
Reynolds took to the pub’s microphone to wish customers a merry Christmas and offered to buy everybody a drink.
He joked: “If I don’t come visit each and everyone of you tonight in your homes, I just want to say happy holidays.”
In a video shared on social media, Reynolds also said he was “excited” ahead of Wrexham’s home game against Cambridge United on Saturday afternoon.
Wrexham have soared since he and fellow actor Rob McElhenney completed their takeover in 2021.
Wrexham have gone from the National League – the fifth tier of football – back into the Football League, after a 15-year absence.
They won promotion from League Two at the first attempt and currently stand second in League One.
In October, Reynolds and McElhenney announced they had taken co-ownership of Wrexham Lager which already sponsors Wrexham AFC and is said to be the oldest British lager brewery still in existence.
