In an interview with Variety, Ryan Reynolds opened up about how he became anxious because of "Deadpool", even during the scriptwriting until the post-production and the launch of the film. One of his biggest stressors was the fear that he would disappoint fans, saying, "By the time we were in post, we'd been to Comic-Con, and people went crazy for it. The expectations were eating me alive."
But behind any man's success is a woman, as the saying goes. Ryan Reynolds is fortunate to have one in his life. "Blake helped me through that," Reynolds share. "I'm lucky to have her around just to keep me sane."
