AceShowbiz - In a delightful and unusual crossover, Ryan Reynolds has returned as Deadpool to help raise funds for the SickKids Foundation, accompanied by none other than "Wonder Woman" actress Lynda Carter. This unique collaboration benefits The Hospital for Sick Children, a leading pediatric healthcare institution in Canada, and promises to deliver both laughter and philanthropy.

Reynolds has been a long-time supporter of SickKids, and this marks his sixth involvement in their annual charity drive. This year, he's bringing in extra star power with Carter and Kidpool, portrayed by Reynolds' 8-year-old daughter, Inez Reynolds. The charity video opens with Deadpool acknowledging, "Benevolence is thirsty work," setting the tone for a blend of humor and heartfelt messages.

In the video, Deadpool and Kidpool humorously discuss "eliminating sick kids," which Kidpool takes literally until Deadpool clarifies they aim to eliminate sickness by encouraging donations. Because of their R-rated personas, they recruit Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman for some family-friendly support. True to form, Deadpool breaks the fourth wall, quipping, "Aren't you a wonderful woman," when Carter appears.

Following this, Carter performs her iconic Wonder Woman spin, only to transform into an ugly Christmas sweater that pokes fun at a past prank involving Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and Jake Gyllenhaal. "The DC lawyers, I knew it," Deadpool jokingly laments, referencing strict licensing rules and even taking a playful jab at recent events in the DC Universe by name-dropping Henry Cavill and The Batman.

The campaign underscores Reynolds' and Blake Lively's commitment to the cause, pledging to match all donations up to $500,000 made before midnight on Christmas Eve. Their generosity aims to support SickKids Foundation, which has been a pivotal institution since its inception in 1875, funding critical research and innovative treatments for child health.

This video serves not only as a fun holiday treat but also as a significant effort to drive donations for a worthy cause. With Reynolds' signature humor and Carter's beloved Wonder Woman persona, the crossover reaches diverse audiences, proving that superheroes, regardless of their universe, can come together for the greater good.
