Deadpool & Wolverine: Ryan Reynolds Reveals His "Proudest" Marvel Achievement and It's Hilarious
Ryan Reynolds jokingly admits his "proudest achievement" is "sad."
Deadpool & Wolverine was released in theaters at the end of July, and the film has already crossed $1 billion at the box office and is on track to beat Joker to become the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all time. The movie marks the first time Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool and Hugh Jackman's Wolverine have entered the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which is a huge moment for the franchise's Multiverse Saga. Now that Reynolds is a part of Marvel Studios, he's talking about some of his achievements, and the thing he's most proud of is pretty hilarious.
"At one point, Deadpool calls the portal a, 'Marvel Sparkle Circle.' Mostly because while we were writing, I didn't know what it was actually called," Reynolds explained on Twitter. "One of my favourite parts of this whole experience is hearing folks at Marvel call it a "Marvel Sparkle Circle" as well. As though it's canon. Sad as it may be, I think it's my proudest achievement. ❤️💛" You can view his post below:

Deadpool & Wolverine
- Marvel Studios)Deadpool & Wolverine may be crushing it at the box office, but it still has to beat Inside Out 2 to become the highest-grossing movie of the year.
Inside Out 2 has proven to be a big win for Pixar Animation Studios, passing $1 billion at the box office during its third weekend in theaters. It didn't take much longer for the sequel to surpass Frozen 2 to become the highest-grossing animated movie of all time. Recently, the movie hit its biggest milestone yet by cracking the all-time top ten-grossing films list.
Deadpool & Wolverine has reached $1.029 billion and it was previously estimated to cap off at $1.2 billion, which would leave Inside Out 2 the winner. Currently, the animated sequel stands at $1.55 billion. However, Deadpool & Wolverine has already surpassed many of its projections, and there's still a chance it could become the highest-grossing film of the year.
