Ryan Reynolds appears as Deadpool to accept the 2024 Creative Arts Emmy Award for Welcome To Wrexam which won for Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program.
“Whoo! Wow! Umm… Mr. Lively couldn’t be here to accept this broken Emmy so he sent me on his behalf,” said Deadpool referencing he is married to Blake Lively. “First and foremost, Wrexham, we love you. Thank you for letting Rob and the other guy tell your story. I’d also like to thank the Academy for this honor and not asking us to attend the televised awards show with the real celebrities.”
Deadpool continues, “I also would like to thank FX and Disney for their support, and in exchange, Mr. Lively promises to not f’k up my next movie. Lastly, the Oscars. You’re on notice, motherf–ers. Maybe we can get a token VFX nod next year. The amount of work on Hugh and Ryan’s face alone is at least worth a nom.”
