"People think it started with us, but it didn't," the Wolverine star began, followed by Ryan, who continued, "The Jackmans and Reynolds have been mortal enemies since there have been Jackmans and Reynoldses-es." Picking up where he left off, Hugh continued, "For generations, it's been a point of family honor to oppose each other," adding that his Laughing Man Coffee Company and the Deadpool star's Aviation Gin company caused a rift between the stars.
