Emotional moment: “Taylor Swift’s Emotional Letter to Best Friend Hugh Jackman Leaves the Wolverine Star in Tears”
Taylor Swift took to social media on Friday to share a tear-jerking message to her ‘best friend’ Hugh Jackman, to mark the release of his film Deadpool & Wolverine.
He’s created the best work of his life, and this film feels like an actual joy portal, a wild escape from reality and an abs sandwich.’
Swift then jokingly referred to the other celebrities in the photo – Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively and the film’s director Shawn Levy – as ‘randoms’ because her admiration of Jackman was so high.
‘I don’t know how he did it. But that’s just Hugh for you. These other randoms crashed the photo and we were too polite to ask them to leave.’
‘Deadpool and Wolverine is out! Buy tickets if you like things that are unspeakably awesome
Swift’s heartfelt note quickly went viral and caught the attention of Reynolds himself, who shared it and added: ‘OMG, this may have just killed Hugh.’ – while Jackman quickly agreed by adding a ‘100’ emoji to his own repost.
Jackman made the comments at the New York world premiere of his new film, Deadpool & Wolverine on Monday.
The Aussie actor, alongside co-star Ryan, was asked about attending a Kansas City Chiefs game in October last year to cheer on Swift’s tight end boyfriend Travis Kelce.
Jackman, Reynolds, his wife Blake, and several other celebrities were invited to Swift’s VIP lounge to watch the game at the time.
‘If you ever really want to kinda not feel great about your career, go to [an NFL] game with Taylor Swift and Blake Lively — and then you’re Blake Lively, Taylor Swift “and others” at the game,’ Hugh told People magazine on the red carpet on Monday.
The X-Men star was making fun of the fact that he was referred to as ‘and others’ on several media sites that uploaded pictures from the game night
.
It comes as Jackman and Reynolds’ film looks set to have a triumphant opening weekend – According to Variety, experts have tracked the movie to kick off with a $165 million debut weekend, which would be the best of the year.
