Who is Gordon Reynolds in Deadpool & Wolverine?

Gordon Reynolds is Ryan Reynolds’ hilarious imaginary creation. Reynolds invented Gordon for his 2016 GQ’s Man of the Year self-interview.

In a 2016 GQ interview, which featured Jake Gyllenhaal as the cameraman, Gordon was shown to be a very rude, and unhinged person. He asked Ryan Reynolds a question regarding his wife Blake Lively and hinted at the question’s inappropriate nature. Gordon also joked about Ryan’s critically panned Green Lantern movie, sarcastically asking if “Deadpool was the Green Lantern of good movies.”

Moreover, he also called Ryan Reynolds “a c**t.” He then continued insulting Ryan Reynolds who got progressively angry and frustrated. The interview culminated with Ryan Reynolds walking away. Gordon said “I love you” to Ryan as he left. However, he then insulted Ryan behind his back.

Gordon later returned in two separate videos in 2018 and 2021, uploaded on Ryan Reynolds’ official YouTube channel. In the 2018 video, he chatted with Ryan Reynolds about the latter’s alcohol brand Aviation Gin and proceeded to make jokes at the latter’s expense.

In the 2021 video, he interviewed Reynolds about the COVID-19 pandemic’s apparent conclusion. Here, he initially claimed he would not insult Ryan Reynolds. However, he swiftly turned back on the promise and proceeded to insult the latter. He even suggested Ryan was excited to jump on the Raya dating app. He later said Ryan Reynolds was the “king of body-switching movies,” which the latter denied and listed all the movies Reynolds starred in, that included body-switching. Reynolds eventually got frustrated and again walked out of the interview.

Is Ryan Reynolds the twin brother of Gordon Reynolds?

No, Ryan Reynolds is not the twin brother of Gordon Reynolds.

As mentioned above, Gordon is an imaginary creation by Ryan Reynolds initially created for his 2016 GQ Man of the Year interview. Reynolds then continued the joke by including the former in two more interview videos.

Gordon’s name being used to credit Nicepool is ironic. This is because, in the film, Nicepool unlike Gordon in the interview videos is very polite and well-mannered. Also unlike Gordon who took every opportunity to insult Ryan Reynolds in their “interviews,” Nicepool is not vulgar and he constantly praises Prime Deadpool.
