Stray Kids and the American actor Ryan Reynolds' Friendship
In 2021, the connection between Stray Kids and Ryan Reynolds first sparked after the K-pop members rolled out a Deadpool-inspired performance during their participation in the reality survival show, Kingdom. This caught the attention of the actor and he responded to a tweet that talked about the same. Moving forward, the two parties have since then shared several interactions with one another.
Ryan and Bang Chan not only exchanged each other's autographs but the actor also remembered to wish the Stray Kids leader a happy birthday in 2021. Soon, Bang Chan and Ryan Reynolds also rolled out an interview, where the idol asked questions about the actor's then-upcoming film, Free Guy.
Furthermore, the actor has continued to express support and love for the K-pop group by posting their songs on his Instagram stories consistently. However, despite the frequent interactions between the two, their interactions have been strictly online. Therefore, fans have not only been yearning to see the two meet each other and also possibly collaborate for the Deadpool movie series soundtracks.
