Deadpool & Wolverine, which is still airing in cinemas around the world and stars Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, was the most anticipated movie of the year for numerous fans. The big on-screen team-up that everyone had been waiting for finally happened, and most fans were thoroughly satisfied.
Even now, four weeks after the premiere, fans are still discovering and counting the many Easter Eggs included in the movie, which is experiencing great success in theaters all around the world. Numerous iconic Marvel characters have made cameo appearances in the movie, and some of them were more or less directly hidden under the numerous Deadpool masks, as the original fought several alternative versions of himself in Paradox’s timeline.
Among these variants was Nicepool, the only Deadpool variant (human, at least) who did not wear a mask so we got to see the original actor in the costume. And if you thought that it was Ryan Reynolds playing Nicepool… you’re in for a big surprise!
As we’ve said, the movie was filled with Easter Eggs and four weeks after the premiere, the fans are still going over all the Easter Eggs and are discovering new ones. We have reported on several of these Easter Eggs and we now have some news for you about a recently-discovered one.
Namely, probably everyone thought that Ryan Reynolds played Nicepool. We saw Reynolds’ face, it was his voice and while the hairdo was different, it was undoubtedly Ryan Reynolds, right? Right? Well, if you had a closer look at the credits or if you’re reading this post, you will now find out that Ryan Reynolds wasn’t actually credited as Nicepool, but it was – Gordon Reynolds!
Who?! This is what you’re probably asking yourselves if you’re not a die-hard fan of Ryan Reynolds, and that is why we are going to provide you with an answer. Namely, Gordon Reynolds is Ryan Reynolds’ fictional twin brother, who is evil and who often disses and insults Ryan. This is a joke originating from an old GQ video, in which Gordon interviews and completely roasts Ryan:
It is a hilarious moment, for sure, and the fact that Gordon was credited as Nicepool is an even more hilarious moment, especially when you see what happens to him at the end.
