Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds’ playful feud has brewed up again for a new coffee ad.
The X-Men star called on Reynolds to appear in a promo for his Laughing Man coffee brand, which highlights a day in the life of the Australian actor.
“This is Hugh Jackman, noted humanitarian,” Reynolds narrates footage of Jackman waking up and throwing his alarm clock at a wall. The rest of the shots feature Jackman misbehaving, being rude to pets and children, and brooding in a depressive state, all while Reynolds sarcastically praises him as a “goodwill ambassador”.
But after taking a sip of Laughing Man coffee, he turns into, “the Hugh Jackman we know and love”.
Reynolds closes out his voiceover by referring to the product as “the nicest f**king coffee on earth”.
While Jackman’s reputation takes a knock in the ad, he is actually using the coffee venture for a good cause, with 100 percent of profits benefiting fair trade farmers around the world.
The pair’s friendly feud began when Ryan tried his best to convince the actor to reprise his role as Marvel character Wolverine one more time for a future Deadpool movie after Hugh announced 2017’s Logan would be his last outing as the X-Men mutant. The two stars have since poked fun at and pulled pranks on each another in a long-running series of hilarious social media skits.
