Marvel fans think Ryan Reynolds threw shade at Justin Baldoni in Deadpool & Wolverine

Drama between “It Ends With Us” starring Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively It shows no sign of stopping. In December 2024, the complicated situation escalated to a point A legal complaint from Lively accused Baldoni of sexual harassmentBaldoni sued The New York Times for defamation over a December 21 article about the situation.

At this stage of the allegations and lawsuits, it is difficult to comment on the situation, but despite this, there is one person whose comments people would really like to hear. Since Lively’s husband is one of the biggest stars in Hollywood right now, it’s no surprise that speculation about Ryan Reynolds’ possible reactions to the situation has sparked interest. But according to many Marvel fans, including X/Twitter user @spiritual_transformationReynolds has already had his say… by assigning a very specific character in “Deadpool & Wolverine” to Baldoni, no less:

“The more I learned about Nassball’s character, the more clear it became that Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively were making fun of Justin Baldoni in Deadpool & Wolverine.”

For readers who have not seen the film, Naisball (Reynolds, described as his long-time alter ego Gordon Reynolds) He is the caring and positive version of Deadpool that the main Deadpool (also Reynolds) instantly despises. Nicepool makes comments about Lady Deadpool’s (biological) body, and is eventually used as a human shield before Deadpool discovers that he doesn’t actually have any superpowers.

Social media users have pointed out several reasons why they suspect Nicepool is a barely-veiled Baldoni parody. These range from spiritual to feminist beliefs expressed by the character crop “My calling is to host a podcast that monetizes feminism,” Naisball says. this, @spiritual_transformation This is allegedly a specific dig at Baldoni, who was open about his feminist beliefs and hosted a podcast called “Man Enough” until the latest allegations were made public. The fact that one of the characters who kills Nesball is none other than Lively’s Lady Deadpool, too He gets a signal In this theory, as well as the fact that it happened in front of a flower shop – a prominent location in “It Ends with Us”.

At this point, of course, the theory that Niceball may be a representation of Reynolds throwing shade at Baldoni is just one of many allegations in the complicated situation around Lively and Baldoni. In a January 7 interview with Megyn Kelly, Baldoni’s attorney, Brian Friedman, indicated that he is aware of Naisball’s theory, so there’s a possibility that this is also one aspect of the situation we’ll hear more about in the future.
