Ryan Reynolds fears that Hugh Jackman will mock his singing in Spirited

Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman have been exchanging friendly fire for years in their funny “feud.”

And Ryan fears the Australian actor and veteran Broadway performer, 54, will have fresh ammunition thanks to his role in Spirited.

In the musical, Ryan sings and dances through a movie for the first time in his career – two skills Hugh is highly skilled at.

“I’m sure Hugh is going to have a field day with this one,” the 46-year-old told the Binge Guide. Stellar magazine this weekend.

Hugh is a lot like the many dancers and musical talents we rubbed shoulders with every day in this movie, in that he’s one of those people who makes it all seem a little effortless and fizzy.

“And I have none of that,” said the Van Wilder star.

Ryan stars with Will Ferrell in a Christmas movie musical, Spirited, and says learning to sing and dance for comedy is the hardest thing he’s ever done.

Reynolds, who performed countless stunts in action movies like Deadpool, said, “I understand the music and dance of fight scenes.

“I’ve done that my whole career. I have shorthand with that.”

Still, he mused, “I can memorize a pretty complicated fight sequence faster than most, I’d say.”

“But a dance number just starts from ground zero. For me it was really challenging.

“I moved very slowly at first and I’m not entirely sure I got much faster by the end, but luckily it’s not a live show so we’re getting several cracks at any one time.

“I have to say, singing and dancing is so much harder than anything I’ve ever tackled.”

The $75 million budget musical comedy was also produced by Reynolds along with co-star Will Ferrell.

Spirited is a retelling of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Story and will be released in theaters on Friday, November 11 and premieres on Apple TV+ on November 18.

Ryan and Hugh have a long history of taking weed shots at each other and subjecting each other to troll jokes – but in reality, they’re good friends.

The hilarious rivalry between Hugh and Ryan started around the time Ryan starred in the 2016 Marvel movie Deadpool.

Hugh said he struggled to remember the details, but it started about Ryan’s ex-wife, Scarlet Johanssonwhom he was married to from 2008 to 2011.

“It’s been so long… God, this is a classic sign that your feud has gone on too long, and you don’t even know why or how it started!” he told Daily beast.
