Ryan Reynolds' Epic 'Titanic'-Themed Prank for Rob McElhenney's Birthday May Be His Best

Ryan Reynolds may have accomplished his most epic prank yet.

In a video posted to X (formerly Twitter) on Saturday, the Deadpool star jokingly explained that since McElhenney's birthday happens to be the same date as the Titanic sinking, Reynolds financed an expedition to the ocean floor to retrieve Wrexham Lager since, according to him, the beer was actually on that maiden voyage. "As a proud sponsor of Wrexham AFC, we're happy to help celebrate Rob's big day by printing this stunning image, found by his co-chairman Ryan Reynolds, on a variety of premium items," their website's shop page reads. "The only thing that we can do is continue to be as honest as possible, wear our hearts on our sleeves and where we mess up, we take a responsibility for," McElhenney previously told ET in regard to the tradition of the sport, the history of the team, and their docuseries, Welcome to Wrexham, "but we always make sure we go into every decision recognizing that this is something that we have to hold sacred."
