Ryan Reynolds Reacts To Gerard Butler Saying He Doesn't Watch His Movies

Ryan Reynolds has responded to the news that Gerard Butler doesn't watch his movies - and in typical Ryan Reynolds' style, he's been pretty chilled about the whole thing.

In case you missed it, Butler recently revealed that he hadn't heard of Reynold's latest flick Free Guy, before admitting that he doesn't actually watch his movies.

You're missing out, mate, Deadpool is class.

In an interview with Unilad, Butler confessed: "I actually don't know what Free Guy is."

This prompted his Copshop co-star Alexis Louder to explain it was Reynolds' latest flick.

Butler then doubled down, adding: "Oh s*** is it... I don't watch Ryan Reynolds' movies."

Now Reynolds has responded to Butler's admission, while also raising some awareness for a good cause - what a guy.

Reynolds posted a screenshot of a headline reading 'Gerard Butler Says He Doesn't Watch Ryan Reynolds' Movies: "I Don't Know What Free Guy Is"' alongside a screenshot of a tweet in which it was explained that Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively would match donations to civil rights non-profit organisations the American Civil Liberties Union and the NAACP Legal Defense Fund.

The Deadpool star wrote: "Can you believe Gerard Butler doesn't know what Free Guy is? Also, can you believe that the challenges to democracy have never been greater and that Blake and I will match your contributions to the @aclu_nationwide and @naacp_ldf?

"*Order of these questions optimized for the Internet, NOT importance."

Reynolds and Lively announced their promise to match donations up to $1,000,000 (£732,400) earlier this week.

Posting on Instagram Stories, he wrote: "Honoured and excited to launch this.

"THANK YOU @aclu_nationwife and @naacp_ldf for your tireless work defending rights and protecting civil liberties."

A statement on the ACLU donation page reads: "With so many fundamental rights under assault, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have just pledged a grant of $1 million to the ACLU and NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund (LDF) to help our teams in the urgent fight to protect civil liberties.

"Now, they are challenging you to join them: Donate to the ACLU today and amplify your impact in the defense of our democracy."
