If there is one role Ryan Reynolds has done perfectly well, it's by being Ryan Reynolds. The Canadian actor, much known for his caustic humour and Deadpool, turns 42 but has something outrageously wise-cracking about his birth too! Unlike how usually celebrities are bestowed with birthday wishes from fans, close pals and wife, in his case, Reynolds chose to simply wish himself while dissing his father's quote.
His latest Instagram post has a young and cute Ryan Reynolds with his father, hopefully staring at the camera with a cake in front of him, unaware of his future wise-cracking Hollywood star stature. For the caption, the actor wrote, 'Happy Birthday to me. Or as Dad used to affectionately say, “the condom broke.”' So far, his equally catty humoured wife, Blake Lively hasn't put up any witty but gushy post. But we're expecting her to share some tidbits on marriage with the 42-year-old star soon.

Thanks to his R-rated humour and taking up the role of Deadpool, Reynolds has cashed in far too much money and fame as that foul-mouthed superhero. Both his Deadpool films, despite their outrageous language and R-rated stance, managed to earn big bucks at the box office worldwide. Since then, the actor has opted to cash into this discovery and make more movies that bring his fans to the cinema-house. He'll be seen next in Free Guy, a high -concept meta action comedy which would once again, glorify the actor's wise-cracking sense of humour.
Apart from Free Guy, Reynolds is set to reprise is role as Michael Bryce in the sequel to The Hitman's Bodyguard which is appropriately titled as The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard. Considering how the Ryan Reynolds-Samuel L Jackson starrer was a laughter riot with impeccable action sequences, the sequel should live up to its name. As for him turning 42, well, time to make the doctor's appointments a weekly thing since you're turning old, Mister!
