Deadpool & Wolverine was a true Reynolds family affair. Three of Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s children appeared on screen in the film in various cameo roles. They join both parents, with Blake Lively herself as none other than Lady Deadpool. But one of the Reynolds children had a special credit in the film, even if she did not appear on camera. According to Entertainment Weekly, the superstar couple’s 4-year-old daughter Betty gets a “Special Thanks” in the credits as “Hugh Jackman Wrangler: Betty Reynolds.” But what exactly is a Hugh Jackman Wrangler, and what does the job entail? We don’t know exactly, but Reynolds did drop some hints earlier this year in People Magazine.
I don’t profess that my kids are perfectly behaved. My 4-year-old Betty sort of loves Hugh, like, unconditionally, and she expresses that love through unblinking violence. So she attacks him, thinking she has claws and he has a healing factor — which he might.”
It’s somehow adorably perfect that Ryan Reynolds’ 4-year-old child shows her affection for Hugh Jackman in the same way her dad does—by attacking him mercilessly. Like father like daughter? We can only hope she calls him all kinds of names when she beats up Hugh. As for the other Reynolds kids, they all appeared on screen in some capacity. Two even joined their mother Blake as members of the Deadpool Corps.
7-year-old Inez Reynolds appears as the junior Deadpool variant Kidpool. (Whether or not someone else dubbed in her raunchy dialogue is currently unknown). Meanwhile, her 1-year-old brother, Olin, appears as the adorable little Babypool, who claps for Deadpool and Wolverine after the big third-act fight, the bloody bodies of his fellow Deadpools lying around him. Lastly, Ryan’s 9-year-old daughter James Reynolds has a credit on IMDb for her role as a “Screaming Mutant.” We’ll just have to freeze-frame the movie to find her when Deadpool & Wolverine finally hits streaming.
