AceShowbiz - The long-standing playful feud between Hollywood stars Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds just got a new twist, and it involves none other than lifestyle guru Martha Stewart. The latest exchange has left fans delighted, as Jackman offered his humorous take on the comment she made about Reynolds.

The amusing saga began when Martha Stewart, 83, appeared as a special guest on Bilt Rewards' November "Rent Free" game show and quipped that Ryan Reynolds, 48, is "not so funny in real life." Reynolds quickly hit back with his trademark humor, writing on X (formerly Twitter), "I'd disagree with her. But I tried that once. The woman is unexpectedly spry. She really closed the gap after a mile or so."

Not one to miss out, Hugh Jackman, 56, who has been embroiled in a playful rivalry with Reynolds for years, decided to weigh in. Jackman responded to Reynolds' comment with, "Finally someone says it."

Fans of the actors know that this kind of banter is characteristic of their relationship. Jackman and Reynolds have been ribbing each other for over a decade - a practice that began back in 2008 when Reynolds married Scarlett Johansson. Jackman, then a close friend of Johansson, would tease Reynolds about being on his best behavior, setting the stage for a friendly rivalry that has only grown more entertaining with time.

In a 2020 interview with The Daily Beast, Jackman gave some insight into the origins of their feud. "I used to ream him because I was very close friends with Scarlett, and Scarlett had just married Ryan, so when he came on set I was like, 'Hey, you better be on your best behavior here, pal, because I'm watching,' and we started ribbing each other that way," Jackman said.

"And then it all escalated with the Deadpool thing and him calling me out, and trying to manipulate me through social media to do what he wanted," he added.

Their dynamic is nothing short of a spectacle, providing endless entertainment for fans and fellow celebrities alike. Even recent birthday celebrations turned into social media gold. For Jackman's October birthday, Reynolds shared a heartfelt post on Instagram with a carousel of images, captioned, "I hope we get to do this til we're 90. Happy Birthday, @thehughjackman. A lot of years. A lot of adventures."

Jackman reciprocated on Reynolds' birthday with his own set of photos, humorously thanking Reynolds' mom, Tammy, for delivering him.

As the two gear up for their upcoming collaboration in Marvel's "Deadpool & Wolverine," fans can expect even more entertaining interactions. Their playful jabs and genuine friendship continue to capture the hearts of many, solidifying their status as one of Hollywood's most beloved duos.
