Over the summer, Deadpool & Wolverine, starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, scored a massive, much-needed box office victory for Marvel. It broke records at the box office, too, becoming the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all-time, beating out The Passion of the Christ, and smashing Fifty Shades of Grey?s record for the most opening weekend ticket sales for an R-rated movie. On Tuesday, October 1, Deadpool & Wolverine came out digitally for streaming and it kept up that same energy from its theatrical release. In fact, it broke yet another record, this time becoming Fandango at Home?s ?best first-day seller? of 2024.
Just one day after the digital release of Deadpool & Wolverine on Tuesday, the Shawn Levy-directed film became the best first-day seller of 2024 for Fandangos streaming service Fandango at Home, the movie retail company announced in a press release.
It is no surprise that Deadpool & Wolverine continues to smash records across Fandango services well after its initial theatrical release in July, said Cameron Douglas, SVP of Home Entertainment at Fandango. We are thrilled to see so many fans rushing to relive the excitement that Deadpool & Wolverine gave us, in the comfort of their homes.
Upon its release in theaters, the film broke Fandangos record for most opening weekend ticket sales for an R-rated movie, surpassing 2015s Fifty Shades of Grey, as well as the record for the best opening weekend ticket sales of 2024.
Deadpool & Wolverine, which stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman as the title characters, earned $211 million at the domestic box office during its debut weekend, according to Disney, by far the largest opening ever for an R-rated movie. The record was previously held by the original Deadpool, which debuted at $132.4 million in 2016.
The big haul also represented the sixth-largest domestic opening weekend ever, putting the debut just ahead of Jurassic World and behind Star Wars: The Last Jedi, according to Box Office Mojo.
Worldwide, Deadpool & Wolverine grossed a whopping $1.3 billion during its theatrical run. The film earned a ??? rating from USA TODAY movie critic Brian Truitt, who called Deadpool & Wolverine a delightfully meta, proudly gonzo buddy-comedy team-up thats extremely violent, often hilarious, occasionally touching and always a good time.
[From USA Today]
I am not at all surprised at this news. Deadpool & Wolverine is a fun movie with so many cameos/characters that showed up, as well as what felt like four inside jokes per minute. That totally makes it a prime candidate for a rewatch or two or three. It also has a killer soundtrack. My husband and I wanted to see it in theaters for a second time but never got the chance to. It?s expensive on digital, though! It?s $30 to buy or $25 fo rent for 48-hours. We?ll probably wait a little while to see if prices come down or if it eventually streams on Disney+ for free. For those of you physical media fans, it will be available on DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray on October 22. I hope there are extras that come along with both the digital and physical releases, because I bet those bloopers and deleted scenes are hilarious.

Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds have an adorable Hollywood friendship. They met while filming X-Men Origins: Wolverine way back in 2009 and started a fake feud that?s provided some pretty fun moments for their fans. They?ve supported each other?s business ventures and are reportedly genuinely good friends IRL. This past summer, they also filmed Deadpool 3 together. As you all know, Jackman and his wife of 27 years, Deborra-lee Furness announced their separation last week. On Monday, Hugh and Ryan were seen taking a walk together in New York City.
Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds are spending some quality time with each other.
The actors and close friends were spotted on a walk together in New York City on Monday. The pairs outing comes a few days after the X-Men star and wife Deborra-lee Jackman announced their amicable split following 27 years of marriage.
Jackman, 54, and Reynolds, 46, are soon set to reprise their Marvel characters Wolverine and Deadpool, respectively, in the upcoming Deadpool 3 movie, which was in the midst of filming before Hollywood actors went on strike in July.
We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,? they said. ?Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.?
The statement continued, Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness. We greatly appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy as our family navigates this transition in all of our lives.
A day after announcing the news, Hugh was spotted on a walk in New York City without his wedding ring on. Although it was a mutual decision for the Aussie pair to separate, a source close to Hugh and Deborra-lee recently told PEOPLE that they are devastated and that the split is very hard for them.
It was not a snap decision ? they took a lot of time and consideration of everything, and they made this decision together, the insider said. They are going on separate journeys, but they will always be a family. They?ll always be co-parents and best friends.
[From People]
I must admit that I always assumed their friendship was one of friendly coworkers who get along and joke around for free publicity, but it?s good to know that theyre friends on a deeper level. It?s always nice to see friends supporting one another during difficult personal times, especially when it?s two men who are breaking societal taboos by providing emotional support for each other and all. I?ve always liked Hugh and Deborra together and was one of those people who was shocked when they announced their split. I really hope that we don?t find out anything icky involving their divorce. I wish the Jackman family the best and hope Deborra and their children also have a good support structure around them.

As we?ve discussed before, Ryan Reynolds has many businesses to keep his family afloat for a few lifetimes. He either owns, partners or has a vested interest in several lucrative deals and credit to him, he?s gotten in on the ground floor of some smart choices. He also cuts bait at the right time, too. I?m not implying that his business fail, but he knows when to accept the right offer. Like when he sold Aviation Gin for $610M two years after investing in it. Well, he?s one-upped himself by selling off his minority ownership of Mint Mobile to T-Mobile to the tune of $1.35 billion.
Ryan Reynolds? Mint Mobile has just been acquired.
The 46-year-old Deadpool actor released a video sharing that his company, of which he is a minority owner, has been acquired by T-Mobile in a deal valued at up to $1.35 billion.
?Mint Mobile is the best deal in wireless and today?s news only enhances our ability to deliver for our customers,? Ryan said in a statement Wednesday.
?We are so happy T-Mobile beat out an aggressive last-minute bid from my mom Tammy Reynolds as we believe the excellence of their 5G network will provide a better strategic fit than my mom?s slightly-above-average mahjong skills. I am so proud of the entire Mint team and so excited for what?s to come,? Ryan joked.
[From Just Jared]
In the announcement, which I posted below, T-Mobile?s Mike Sievert and Ryan let customers know that Mint has run on the T-Mobile network since its inception. So they assure everyone who likes Mint that nothing will change, including pricing and customer service. I?m not sure I?d buy that if I was a Mint patron. Folks don?t spend over a billion dollars without a motive. Those numbers, man ? after a while they just don?t seem real. Since I am currently working on my 1040s, my first thought was how that was going to affect his taxes. But I don?t think billionaires have to worry about things like that. I don?t use either company so I don?t know if I should be consoling people or congratulating them right now. I can congratulate Ryan, certainly. That?s a nice chunk of change to pocket. I wonder if Blake told him that if he wanted to sink any more money into his Wrexham Football Club, he was going to have to sell off one of his toys to do so. I don?t blame her? or him. I won?t go into details in case Welcome to Wrexham airs season two.
Heres the announcement. It?s typical Ryan cuteness. I enjoyed it, and Mike does a pretty good job meeting Ryan at his irreverence. But this merger might actually worry some folks. I wonder if this silly little back and forth is enough to assure Mint users or are people sorry they trusted Deadpool with their wireless needs about now?
I only want the best for Mint Mobile customers. Think I?ve found it. pic.twitter.com/nSNmGKLmN2

In October, Ryan Reynolds finished filming Spirited, his modern, musical version of A Christmas Carol with Will Farrell and Octavia Spencer. When the film wrapped, he posted it to Instagram along with the announcement that he?s taking a ?sabbatical from movie making.? Since then, his film Red Notice opened which had enough star power to get a huge promotional junket, so it feels like he?s been everywhere. Plus, I just saw Free Man so that also makes me feel like I?ve been inundated with Ryan lately. But if Ryan is really taking a break, that means that after Spirited is released, we won?t see him for a while. Recently, Ryan opened up as to why he?s stepping away. It?s to be a more ?present dad? to his three daughters. And that?s a pretty good reason.
Ryan Reynolds is opening up about why he decided to take a break from acting.
The Deadpool actor, 45, spoke with LinkedIn News Senior Editor at Large Jessi Hempel, who asked about the actors sabbatical.
Well, Ive done a lot of [acting], Reynolds said in the video interview, published Monday, adding that hes extremely passionate about his creative agency Maximum Effort, which he co-founded in 2018, and software platform MNTN, where he serves as the Chief Creative Officer. MNTN acquired Maximum Effort in June.
Reynolds continued, The biggest thing for me, and I know you have kids as well, is that I dont want to miss this time with my kids.
The actor ? who shares daughters James, 6, Inez, 5, and Betty, 2, with wife Blake Lively ? also shared why this is the perfect time for him to take a break.
When Im shooting a film, Im oftentimes in Europe, Im away, there are incredibly long hours, its a ton of constant, kind of requirement to be there the whole time ? not just because Im performing but Im also generally producing and writing on my movies as well, he said.
They tend to chew and blow bubbles with every aspect of my life when Im shooting a film, he added. So allowing myself to step away right away, its sort of the perfect time. Not just for my family but for MNTN and for Maximum Effort, to just kind of focus on those for a little while.
Reynolds later said he simply wants to live life like a normal human, stating, I want my kids to have a pretty normal schedule. For many years when my wife Blake would shoot a film, I would not shoot a film and I would be with the kids and vice versa. So we would sort of trade off. We never really worked at the same time. But always we were away. So the kids were away too.
That lifestyle has become challenging as their children get older, he explained. Now that theyre in school, they have a somewhat normal schedule. I think its totally important for their development and I really enjoy being a present dad. I love taking them to school in the morning, I love picking them up. I love that I have the hours in between to focus on the things that Im really passionate about like MNTN and Maximum Effort, Reynolds said. It is a juggling act.?
[From People]
All things being equal, school is when things really shift to child-oriented lives for parents (if they weren?t already). We travelled all the time before we had to adhere to school schedules. Prices, lack of crowds, flexibility ? it was so much better. So I understand why Ryan crammed so much in while he could and is hitting pause now. It makes sense. And honestly, good for him. It would be really easy to keep going while assuming there will always be time after the next project. But the time to truly be present can get away from anyone. I think he?ll be glad he took this breather. He can make movies during summer break. Or find a local project.
Like I said, that?s all things being equal, though, which they decidedly are not in Ryan?s case. He has very wisely set his family up financially, so he has no problem taking time off from making movies. In addition to MNTN software and his Maximum Effort creative agency, he?s got Aviator Gin and his stake in Mint Mobile. Even if he?s an active partner in all of those, he can do those jobs from an office and still be a present parent to his girls. I admire Ryan for diversifying, especially if it allows him to make the personal choices he wants to. I also think it?s not a bad time for Ryan to maybe step back. I really like Ryan but like Jennifer Lawrence said, people can get sick of you if you?re everywhere for an extended period. Ryan and Blake Lively have done a lot to reinvent themselves ? and for the record I think it?s honest growth for them. Now is a good time to let those favorable impressions simmer with the public.

Celebrities have been generous this month in the wake of natural disasters and tragedies. From George Clooney helping his Italian neighbors after a devastating flood, to Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan donating to causes benefitting people in Haiti and Afghanistan. If these acts of service dont warm your heart, then perhaps Ryan Reynolds and Blake Livelys donation to charities on the ground in Haiti after the 7.2 earthquake last week, will. Ryan and Blake donated $10,000 each to four different charities according to their spokesperson, who spoke to E! Online. Hope for Haiti thanked them in a tweet posted earlier this week. Below are a few more details from E!:
Hope for Haiti, an organization dedicated to providing support and partnership for the people of Haiti for over 30 years, publicly thanked the pair for their donation through their official social media accounts on Tuesday, Aug. 24.
Our entire organization would like to thank @vancityreynolds and @blakelively for their generous donation to our #HaitiEarthquake Response & Recovery efforts, the organization wrote on Twitter. This donation will help empower our team to continue to respond in the hardest-hit areas of southern Haiti in the days and weeks to come.
Blake and Ryans donation will be used to set up mobile clinics in the communities where theres the most need, as determined by the Ministry of Health, according to TMZ. The donation will also reportedly help cover food delivery distribution costs from World Central Kitchen
[From E! News]
I am loving how so many celebrities are using their influence and their checkbooks to help out in the time of need. It has felt like the month of August has been a month of disaster, sort of like January 2020.
Haiti itself has had a bad summer, from the execution of its President to the earthquake and tropical storm. It is like the people of Haiti cant catch a break. So it really did warm my heart to see that Ryan and Blake donated so much money. I love Ryan and Blake and their relationship. I also like the fact that they chose organizations that are actually on the ground in Haiti. I am glad that part of their money is going towards building clinics as well as to World Central Kitchen to make sure folks are being fed while they pick up the pieces of their lives. I hope that we continue to hear stories about people doing these wonderful deeds because they are a light in this seemingly dark time.
As for Ryan and Blake, these two previously gave 1.4 million to food banks and hospitals at the beginning of the pandemic and $200k to the NAACP during the BLM movement last summer, around the time they apologized for their wedding venue. I look forward to seeing their future humanitarian efforts. Hopefully, they will inspire others to do the same.

During the American coverage of the Olympics, we?ve been gifted with endless previews for Free Guy, Ryan Reynolds? latest movie. Every time I see one of the previews, I?m like ?wait, is that Jodie Comer?!?!? It is. Jodie Comer is Ryan?s costar and I bet they had a ball working together. Jodie didn?t bother flying in for the premiere of Free Guy though, so Ryan?s wife Blake Lively had to provide the glamour on the red carpet. Did it work?
Blake wore this Prabal Gurung gown to her husband?s premiere. I? do not understand. Why this dress? Why this vibe? I was shocked to find out that it is Prabal Gurung it?s so Vanna White, so game-show-hostess. I get that cut-outs and midriffs are ?in? for Pandemic Year #2 style, but this is a terrible example of how to do the trend! It just looks cheap. Oh well, at least Blake and Ryan look nice together. I like that he wore his glasses on the red carpet I actually think he looks more handsome with glasses.
This was apparently Blake & Ryan?s first red carpet together in two years! Most of that is because of the pandemic and Blake hasn?t been working that much in recent years, she?s been at home with the babies (which is work too!!).

I still remember when Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively got together. It was good gossip, because it seemed (at the time) like Blake basically dumped Leonardo DiCaprio to get with Ryan. A baller move, without a doubt. Blake and Ryan made sense from the start too she had been talking about wanting to settle down and start a family, and Ryan had spent years trying to find a lady to do just that. They went from ?just dating? to engaged/living together/married in about two seconds. This week, Ryan appeared on the SmartLess podcast with Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett and he spoke a lot about Blake, how they started and how she?s basically everything to him:
When he met Blake: I met Blake on the darkest crease in the anus of the universe called Green Lantern, he said of the two co-starring in the 2011 superhero film. We were friends and buddies, and about a year and a half later we went on a double date but we were dating separate people. Reynolds, 44, went on to say that the two always kind of kept in touch sort of casually.
Begging: Next thing you know, she was going to Boston, I was going to Boston and I said, Well, Ill ride with you. We got on the train and we rode together, he continued. I was just begging her to sleep with me. When asked what the first move looked like, Reynolds joked: I would use a little bit of tear stick so I could get the tears kind of rolling ? then I would tell a little sob story about my life.
A fairytale: Jokes aside, Reynolds described the moment he knew he and Lively, 33, had gone from casually dating to a lifelong commitment as one those those silly moments out of a fairytale. A week later I was like, We should buy a house together, Reynolds added. And we did.
Raising their three girls James, 6, Inez, 4, and Betty, 1: ?They had a tough time,? he said about Zoom school for the two older girls. ?I was seeking out external help left and right. I was reading books. I was trying someway to steer the ship. Blake was so much better at it then I was because I?m also a child.?
How their marriage works: ?I?m present with my kids and my wife and my marriage is incredibly important to me and that friendship is important to me,? he said. ?Blake and I don?t do movies at the same time. When Blake is ready to do some stuff, I?ll step down and then we go back and forth. She?ll do a film and I?ll be with her on location hanging out with the kids.?
[From USA Today and JustJared]
We?ve actually heard some version of the ?we were on a double date with other people? story before. I tend to believe that Blake was with Leo DiCaprio and Ryan was with? someone, we don?t know. But the date clearly stuck in his head as the moment when he knew Blake was the one. Soon after, Blake and Leo were done and Blake and Ryan were taking romantic weekend trips to Charleston and house-hunting together.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month. People from all walks of life are trying to reach those who might need a helping hand with their personal well-being. This year, Ryan Reynolds added his voice to via Instagram. Ryan posted an honest, relatable message about anxiety and made a plea for us to talk about and treat mental health. Ryan wrote:
May is almost over. It?s also Mental Health Awareness month. Which brings me to this
One of the reasons I?m posting this so late is I overschedule myself and important things slip. And one of those reasons I overschedule myself is my lifelong pal, anxiety. I know I?m not alone and more importantly, to all of those lie me who overschedule, overthink, overwork, over-worry and over-everything, please know that you?re not alone. We don?t talk enough about mental health and don?t do enough to destigmatize talking about it. But, as with this post, better late than never, I hope?
[From Ryan Reynold's Instagram]
This is not the first time Ryan has spoken about his anxiety. He spoke to GQ about breaking down after finishing Deadpool. He?d fought so hard for the movie to be made, and made a certain way, and gave so much of himself, that it nearly took all of him in the end. Ryan sought help but it was because he feared he had a neurological issue. According to his 2016 interview, it sounded like that was the first time he?d been diagnosed with anxiety. Ryan came to understand that he?s had anxiety his whole life and many of his antics in his youth were caused by anxiety and not pure self-destruction. I know how hard it is to understand past behavior was a result of something that didn?t get diagnosed or realized until later. Which is why I applaud Ryan for speaking out for Mental Health Awareness month, because maybe something he said helps someone else seek treatment sooner than he did. These comments help in other ways as well. I don?t have anxiety, but I know some who do. I didn?t know over-scheduling was linked to it. Now that I do, I can reach out to my friend when I see her over-scheduling and working too much because she?s probably needs support.
Ryan?s good friend and frequent prank buddy, Hugh Jackman, had the top reply on Ryan?s IG post. It was genuine and supportive and exactly what those reading it should see, ?Mate your honesty is not only brave but, I?m positive will help countless others who struggle with anxiety too. Good on you!? People frequently mistake humor for confidence, comedy is a great mask. So I think it?s important that people like Ryan and Hugh, whose public relationship is to mock each other (much to our enjoyment), show they can also be honest and supportive of each other. This is what this month is about and I am very glad to see such high-profile people honoring that.

While seemingly every female celebrity is trying to carve a slice of the lucrative beauty/skincare/makeup industry, the real money seems to be in liquor. Specifically, celebrity-owned and branded liquor labels. George Clooney was obviously one of the biggest names to do this he and Rande Gerber started Casamigos tequila years ago, seemingly when they were drunk on vacation in Cabo. They ended up selling the Casamigos label/brand for $1 billion in 2017, four years after they started it. What a return on an investment, right? And it was basically just their pet project, their little boutique (ish) high-quality tequila label. Anyway, other celebrities obviously took note. In 2018, Ryan Reynolds bought a big stake in Aviation Gin, and he?s done a lot of work behind-the-scenes with the brand, including masterminding that brilliant social media ad with the Peloton actress. And it paid off, big time.
It seems that more and more celebrities are diversifying their portfolios by getting into the liquor and wine industry, and given that Ryan Reynolds just sold his Aviation American Gin brand for an estimated $610 million its easy to see the appeal. Diageo?the worlds largest spirits and beers producer?has acquired the gin brand co-owned by the actor in a deal that could be worth up to $610 million. As part of the deal, Diageo will pay $335 million upfront with an additional $275 million possible payday depending on Aviations performance over the next 10 years.
In 2018, Reynolds purchased a stake in the gin brand, founded in 2006, and as part of this new deal will retain an ?ongoing ownership stake.? In addition to Aviation Gin, Diageo also acquired Astral Tequila, Sombra Mezcal and TYKU Sake from the brands parent company Davos Brands LLC.
In a press release announcing the acquisition, Reynolds wrote, ?A little over two years ago, I became an owner of Aviation Gin because I love the taste of Aviation more than any other spirit. What I didn?t expect was the sheer creative joy learning a new industry would bring. Growing the brand with my company, Maximum Effort Marketing, has been among the most fulfilling projects I?ve ever been involved with. I want to thank Diageo for their incredible team and passion. We?re so excited for the next chapter of Aviation Gin, which, I promise, will require just as little reading.?
[From Vanity Fair]
If I could go back and do it all again and somehow be rich and famous that time around, I would totally invest in a start-up liquor label and just sit back and wait for the money to come rolling in. Seriously, owning a big stake in a liquor label really does seem like the best ?side project? business in Hollywood now. Now, Ryan isn?t going to see even half of that $610 million figure he just owns a stake in the label, and clearly, he still wants to be involved in the company. But this is probably the easiest money he?s ever made.

Before I get to this puff piece about Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively, it?s worth noting that they were recently in the news for a weird and bad reason. The Knot and Pinterest took the extraordinary step of banning all photos from weddings which take place on former plantations. Blake and Ryan got married on a plantation, and so a lot of sites lead with ?The Knot and Pinterest banned photos of Blake and Ryan?s wedding!? First of all, Blake did give photos of the wedding to Martha Stewart Weddings, but they didn?t show a lot of it. Second, I grew up in the South and it?s really difficult to find any historical property or site in the South which does not have some dark backstory involving slavery, the Confederate Army or the Civil War. I understand why The Knot and Pinterest did what they did and it was a good call. But I also think that some (white) people don?t even know that their wedding venue was the site of some awful atrocity. Then again, Blake did write that ?allure of antebellum? thing, so maybe she knew it was awful and that?s why she chose it.
Now, on to the fluff! Ryan Reynolds is promoting his Michael Bay-Netflix movie 6 Underground and he was asked what he and Blake binge-watch. His answer surprised me:
Ever wondered what Ryan Reynolds and wife Blake Lively like to bing together on Netflix? The answer might surprise you. Speaking with PEOPLE at the Tuesday premiere of his new Netflix movie 6 Underground, directed by Transformers? Michael Bay, Reynolds revealed they most enjoy watching the cooking reality show, The Great British Bake Off.
?You weren?t expecting that, were you?? the Deadpool star joked. ?We live in a world that?s pretty divisive right now and there?s a lot going on. And I like that show just because it?s a nice thing to watch at night. Everybody on the show is nice to each other, which I find refreshing. It?s sort of sweet. It?s not really about anything that?s going to remind you of chaos.?
[From People]
GBBO is on-brand for Blake but not on-brand for Ryan. But I can see how he would have gotten drawn into it GBBO is so soothing and restful and peaceful. CB and I talked about that on episode 31 of the Gossip with Celebitchy podcast GBBO is set in a lovely tent on peaceful English property, surrounded by beautiful flowers and greenery. All of the contestants have soft British accents and they care so much about baking cakes and sometimes someone cries while they?re watching their muffins rise. I could see Ryan watching it to humor Blake and then getting really involved with who *should* win and whose cake looks half-baked.
