Ryan Reynolds may not have the physique of his co-star Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, but what he lacks in physical stature he makes up for in rapier wit.
Over the years, Ryan’s jabs at fans, co-stars, and family have become the stuff of legend . So for a good laugh to get you through the week, here is a list of almost every time that Ryan Reynolds trolled people online.
Life imitating art.
Ryan received a tweet from one of his fans, detailing how his girlfriend had broken up with him the very night that they went to see Deadpool together. Being the stellar chap that he is, Ryan of course offered his condolences.
Making fun of other people’s kids is taboo — but your own are always fair game.
I just can’t shake the image of Ryan wearing a Goofy-style hat, with an adorning t-shirt that reads “I Came for the D.” This is almost as good as wrapping up empty boxes for kids to open on Christmas morning.
When Ryan revealed that he has a “twin brother.”
Commercials are boring, there’s no other way to put it. So if you have something important to say, why not communicate it via a faux interview wherein Ryan Reynolds interviews his own fabricated twin brother? It makes perfect sense to me.

Patience is a virtue.
Better late than never, that’s what I always say. I also was a late bloomer, just like Ryan. To this day, my facial hair is reminiscent of a teenage Joe Dirt mixed with Dr. Sheldon Cooper of The Big Bang Theory .
The real joys of fatherhood.
Not only do you have a matching organ donor, but kids are also proverbial tax shelters! You can put them to work doing chores around the house and pass it off as if you’re teaching them “character.” Then, when you’re old and dusty — they get to change your diaper!
The time that Ryan created a streaming website.
Spoiler alert, the streaming service wasn’t real — and the link provided only looped one movie ( Foolproof ) over and over and over again. It may have started out as a joke, but Ryan wasn’t wrong when he said how every tech company needs a streaming service.
Ryan reveals the truth about his mother’s internet presence.
After Ryan’s most recent heist film Red Notice debuted on Netflix, Dwayne Johnson decided to have a little fun and took out a billboard ad that read “Ryan Reynolds uses his mom’s Netflix account.”
To which Ryan replied, “In fairness, my mom uses my OnlyFans account.”
Look into my eyes and you will see what you mean to me.
I’m not going to deny that Josh Brolin has a smoldering set of peepers, but for me — it’s his deeply resonating voice that makes me weak in the knees.
Playground insults are the best insults.
During their game of “Playground Insults”, Ryan told James Brolin that his performance in Goonies was so bad — that it caused male fans, young and old, to punch themselves in the [expletive] for five straight minutes.
Ouch. I didn’t think it was that bad?
Ryan and Blake know how to have fun with one another.
Ryan and Blake have a long history of trolling one another. There are countless instances of which to choose from, but for me — this birthday wish and the accompanying picture will always live rent-free in my mind.
It has a nice ring to it.
I also enjoy typing “Short ‘n’ Salty” — it just rolls off the tongue. I’m picturing a type of miniature pretzel snack, filled with stale Cheez Whiz. Give me a call if you ever want to take it to market, Ryan.
The never-ending feud with Hugh Jackman.
Ryan and Hugh’s social media feud is arguably one of the greatest in the history of the internet. The coup de grâce for me came when Ryan and Hugh decided to make commercials for one another’s respective companies.
The good advice that you just didn’t take.
I’m not sure if Ryan is telling this fan to call his mom in order to tell her the good news, or just offering up some free advice that we would all do well to take heed of?
Green Lantern Vs. Superman.
Ryan has actually made fun of Henry Cavill’s CGI mustache mishap in Justice League on more than one occasion.
Normally, I’d advise caution when it comes to mocking the Big Blue Boyscout. But when you happen to hold a Power Ring from Oa in the palm of your hand — who’s going to stop you?
Lost in translation.
For a second, I actually thought that this tweet could have been about gluten-free cigarettes and perhaps Ryan secretly spoke Japanese. Sadly, the tweet actually says “Dead pool 2 is the best, yukio[sic] is too cute, and 3 I want to see it soon !”
