“Unspeakable violence”- Ryan Reynolds' Uncanny Revelations About Mother Sends Whoopi Goldberg’s ‘The View’ in Hysteria

Published 06/10/2024, 10:15 PM EDT

Ryan Reynolds has long been hailed as the master of chaos in Hollywood. Therefore, it is no surprise that his quick wit runs in the family. While his humorous antics seem to find a place wherever he goes, most recently, they were on full display, leaning in his mother's corridors. During an appearance on Whoopi Goldberg's show The View, the actor used his unbridled comic talent to share surprising details about their relationship.

Now it seems that Reynolds' moniker as the troublemaker visibly takes a backseat when Mother Reynolds assumes the role of the godmother of chaos.

Ryan Reynolds recently surprised the co-hosts of The View by making an impromptu appearance alongside his mother, Tammy, who joined him in the studio audience. During a discussion on Monday's Hot Topics, Goldberg questioned why Reynolds was in the audience instead of being a scheduled guest, to which Reynolds replied with his trademark wit, joking that he complies with his mother's wishes to avoid facing her "unspeakable violence."

Reynolds disclosed that his mother had expressed her dream of attending the show just a day earlier, prompting him to fulfill her wish to avoid maternal retribution. He humorously admitted to leveraging his connection as "Blake Lively's husband" to secure a spot for himself, downplaying his own celebrity status. His mother further confirmed her longtime fandom of the show, revealing she never misses an episode.

Despite Reynolds’ amusing confessions about his mother, the humor trail does indeed run in his blood and his 2022 Mother’s Day tribute speaks volumes to vouch for that.

Ryan Reynolds and Tammy Reynolds have had a long-standing tradition of playful banter over the years. However, in 2022, the Deadpool actor took it to the next level by featuring his mom in a Mother’s Day video for an Aviation Gin tutorial ad. While the ad initially began with Reynolds expressing sincere appreciation for mothers worldwide, it quickly veered off course when viewers were treated to their Mother’s Ruin Punch.

The family matriarch intervened, correcting Reynolds at every turn, from how to stir the drink to the correct vermouth ratio. Despite Reynolds' attempts to maintain his composure, his initially amused expression turned to visible annoyance. When Reynolds shared the video on his Instagram, Hugh Jackman gave props to Mama Reynolds "for raising" the chaotic hero. Thus, it is only fitting that Reynolds would go the extra mile to fulfill his mother’s dream, albeit not without a healthy dose of cautionary humor.
