Hollywood star Hugh Jackman outlines Wrexham love thanks to Deadpool co-star Ryan Reynolds

The Australian megastar appeared alongside the Wrexham co-owner in smash hit movie “Deadpool 3” and has offered some kind words on social media about the Welsh club

Hollywood superstar Hugh Jackman has opened up on his love for Wrexham and made a heartfelt admission about the club’s TV series.

The Welsh outfit charmed the masses last season following their whirlwind rise in the National League, where they beat nearest challengers Notts County to the title to ensure promotion back to the EFL after 15 years away. What was effectively the league decider between the two clubs was watched by a worldwide audience, with the Red Dragons having garnered a cult following due to its Hollywood ties.

Owned by acting royalty Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, it comes as little surprise that the historic club has gained such an extensive following stateside and beyond following the “Welcome to Wrexham” TV series. Of course, documentaries within the inner sanctum of dressing rooms are now commonplace but the hands-on approach of the team’s chairmen enabled it to become a standout hit.

Viewers developed an attachment to the Racecourse Ground club due to the club’s strong core supporter base, as well as the clear passion for the team in the wider North Welsh area. Now, even “X-Men” leading man Jackman has shown that A-List celebrities are not immune to catching the Wrexham bug.
