Ryan Reynolds just revealed the gift Blake Lively sent to the set of Deadpool & Wolverine, and it’s both fun and a little sentimental.
In a new interview with Vanity Fair, Reynolds, costar Hugh Jackman, and director Shawn Levy discuss the fun atmosphere on set, and the accompanying pictures show that spirit with the threesome playing a little table tennis. And it’s not a prop for the photo shoot; that was a gift from Lively.
“[Blake] and I have a bunch of these prints of actors playing [ping pong] on their sets,” Reynolds told the outlet, providing a rare peek into their interior decorating strategy. “We’ve got Newman and Redford in Durango, Mexico, during the shooting of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. We’ve got Jimmy Stewart and Henry Fonda, I think in the ’30s. We have Olivia de Havilland playing ping-pong, Ronald Reagan and Jane Wyman playing. Joan Crawford. So Blake sent the ping-pong table to Pinewood Studios,” he explained. So sweet!
To better visualize the prints adorning the Reynolds-Lively home, here are a few samples. Olivia de Havilland:
