Reynolds and fellow Hollywood actor Rob McElhenney bought Wrexham in 2020 and have since seen their team secure back-to-back promotions to League One.

And because of Reynolds, Mullins featured in Deadpool which prompted the football club to update his player profile with his Welshpool costume as noticed by an eagle-eyed fan.

One fan shared a screen recording captioning as “Scrolling through the players list on the Wrexham website until you find..” followed by them stopping on Mulli dressed as Welshpool.

Another amused fan said: “This is class.”

While a third replied back with a meme which said: “That’s great banter, it really!”

Welshpool appears in the film during a scene with a multitude of Deadpool variants.

The character’s costume is adorned with prominent Welsh flags across the chest and shoulders.

At a specific moment in the film, the camera deliberately focuses on the character, playfully acknowledging Ryan Reynolds’ recent Welsh connection.
