One of Dwayne Johnson's movies led to him meeting Ryan Reynolds years ago

One of The Rock's earlier films was The Scorpion King in 2002, where he portrayed the titular character. While promoting the movie during MTV's Spring Break in Cancun, he also met Ryan, who was promoting his own movie, Van Wilder. Two decades later, the duo are still friends and have since earned multiple awards for their projects.

In a past interview, Dwayne Johnson spoke about how he met the Deadpool actor and opened up about what type of relationship they have with each other.

“I have not known any actor in Hollywood longer than I’ve known Ryan Reynolds. We started our careers together. I had ‘The Scorpion King' come out. He had ‘Van Wilder’ come out. We were criss-crossing promotions. We wound up in Cancun on ‘MTV Spring Break’ promoting our movies. We’re like an old couple who bicker and fight. And of course, we love and respect each other,” [H/T Pinkvilla]

Although they have only starred in a few movies together, it looks like the bond between the two actors extends to their personal lives.
