Ryan Reynolds reveals he stopped getting paid during the filming of Deadpool and took a smaller salary to pay for the screenwriters to be on set


Ryan Reynolds, 47, has shared details about his salary for the first Deadpool movie while promoting the upcoming third installment with co-star Hugh Jackman.

'No part of me was thinking when Deadpool was finally greenlit that this would be a success,' Reynolds admitted about the 2016 R-rated movie during a video call in late June with Jackman. The highly anticipated superhero sequel also stars Emma Corrin, Morena Baccarin, Rob Delaney, Karan Soni, Leslie Uggams, Matthew Macfadyen and Jennifer Garner. He told the newspaper that he wasn't tentative to show his eldest child the R-rated film, as he watched many at that age and felt they helped provide an influence that would serve him later in his life.
