Ryan Reynolds reacts to ‘get bored’ & sell Wrexham stake claims as Hollywood superstar explains ‘uptown problem’

<p>Two Hollywood stars <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/blake-lively-ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-magic-record-breaking-wrexham/bltdc9ee63d6235391e" target="_blank">completed a stunning takeover at the Racecourse Ground</a> in 2021. They have <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/wrexham-rob-mcelhenney-kaitlin-olson-reacts-history-making-championship-red-dragons/blt339a0e3cacb0cd93" target="_blank">enjoyed a remarkable journey since then</a>, with the history books being rewritten along the way. Three successive promotions have lifted Wrexham into the Championship.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Reynolds and McElhenney have invested heavily on and off the field, while making it clear from the start - as <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/more-series-ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhnney-make-welcome-to-wrexham-as-long-as-they-can-deadpool-actor-more-emotionally-attached-red-dragons-than-marvel-hollywood/bltc2428a5bcd998f4c" target="_blank">documentary cameras followed them to North Wales</a> - that the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/within-five-years-wrexham-premier-league-ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-told-how-reach-top-flight-former-promotion-winning-heroes/blt7873e6fc6fdbf1a3" target="_blank">intention was to reach the Premier League</a>.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>More funds will be <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-further-partners-wrexham-hollywood-superstars-investors-premier-league-dream/bltd947e237e81a9028" target="_blank">required in order to hit that target,</a> with the billionaire Allyn family already being welcomed on board. It has been suggested that Reynolds and McElhenney could<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-tipped-sell-wrexham-sooner-rather-than-later-questions-ready-premier-league-promotion-push/blt20204817e5f0173a" target="_blank"> cash in completely if a suitable offer is tabled</a>.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Deadpool star Reynolds has told the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sfo61kMk4o " target="_blank"><em>Fearless in Devotion</em></a> podcast of a debate that he <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/phil-parkinson-praise-humble-ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-wrexham-ownership-great-intelligence/bltabca45c5c6138e6e" target="_blank">now turns a deaf ear to</a>: “There are still people who think we are fading away or we’re going to get bored. I don’t know how you get bored with something like this. I have said this before, I love this sport so much now that I f*cking hate it! I really feel that in my cells.”</p>

WHAT RYAN REYNOLDS SAID

<p>He went on to say of <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/best-team-world-rob-mcelhenney-dreams-big-premier-league-title-champions-league-ambition-wrexham/blt916464002681607d" target="_blank">chasing the dream and what could happen</a> while heading down that path: “Even if our stake in the club shrinks because we have to go all the way up to the Premiership, that’s what’s called an uptown problem. It doesn’t change a thing in terms of the emotional investment. The financial investment stuff I’ve never cared as much about - emotional investment is my job, that’s Rob’s job, and that’s what we love the most.”</p>
