Ryan Reynolds and the other Deadpool 3 cast members might still be waiting for the threequel’s production to resume with the conclusion of the SAG-AFTRA strike, but that doesn’t mean the Wade Wilson actor can’t still do a little performing. In recent years, Reynolds has frequently appeared in ads for companies he owns or is partnered with, including Mint Mobile (where he once teamed with Rick Moranis) and Aviation Gin (which often uses to celebrate Father’s Day). The actors’ latest ad sees him teaming with The Flash’s Grant Gustin, and in addition to obviously referencing the latter being DC Comics’ Scarlet Speedster, I also dug how a nod to the former’s Green Lantern movie.
Reynolds and Gustin were paired together for an ad about MNTN, a company that sells television software. Rather than playing himself, Gustin appears as Seymour Moas, MNTN’s chief performance officer who’s there to tout its services to advertisers. Only, Reynolds, who’s the company’s chief creative officer, doesn’t shy away from not-so-subtly implying he’s standing next to the man who played the Arrowverse’s Flash, as evidenced by him dropping lines like “Sounds fast” and “… Could see results in a flash?” See for yourself:
