Once upon a time, a bad joke led Ryan Reynolds into an embarrassing situation with the late 90s star Tom Arnold.

&#8220;I was just joking around” &#8211; When Ryan Reynolds Got in Trouble With Tom Arnold for His Sense of Humor

Ryan Reynolds has finally started shooting the most-awaited movie Deadpool 3
after a break of four years. The comic book character Wade Wilson has always
been associated with the actor because of their similar traits. In movies,
Deadpool is hilariously lethal as the artificial mutant healing factor left him
insane.



 

He also has a habit of jumping to the screen and addressing the audience
directly to tell his side of the story. Just like Ryan
[http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/ryan-reynolds] who keeps on coming back to his
fans with new comical moments and quirky comments. We have seen him making dark
comments on Twitter and roasting his friends with quick wittiness. However,
there was a time when he got in trouble with Tom Arnold for his sense of humor.


RYAN REYNOLDS ONCE MADE AN UNLIKELY COMMENT ON TOM ARNOLD

In 2008, Ryan Reynolds sat down with Conan O’Brien to talk about becoming the
new face of People magazine’s Sexiest Men Alive. In the late-night show, the
host teased him about their last meeting when he commented on Tom Arnold. The
Canadian star stated how his comment during an interview led to an embarrassing
situation.

The whole story was that the actor had abs and an amazing physique on the cover
page of the magazine. So in the 2008 interview, he said that when he breathes
out he looks like Tom Arnold. This comment turned out to be humiliating for
Arnold who was working on his body.

“Well, no, I was just joking around, I don’t know why it popped into my head,”
explained the Red Notice star. When Ryan returned home after that interview, Tom
Arnold was already there waiting for him. The Adam Project star instantly
apologized

to him and explained that whatever he said was unintentional and momentous.



However, the shocking thing was that Arnold already lost 50 pounds and the actor
felt bad that his comment negated his hard work. Meanwhile, he planned to make
up for his mistake with a gift and bought a bottle of champagne.

Unfortunately, this also went wrong as it turned out that Arnold was recovering
from alcoholism at that time. Well, Ryan Reynolds tried his best to make amends
with one of the famous faces of American cinema.
