Ryan Reynolds is all set to get back to work as he gears up to start filming for the Netflix film Red Notice along with Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot. The Deadpool star had to undergo a precautionary COVID antigen test before he could begin work and after the swab test, he has shared the most hilariously honest experience of what it feels like to get a coronavirus test. Ryan Reynolds took to Instagram and shared a series of photos, clicked by his wife actor Blake Lively, which showed his genuine reactions to the nasal swab test. He captioned the post, "Back to work on #RedNotice. The Covid Test is quick and easy". Ryan added the funny bit further as he shared, "The doctor places the swab up your nose, just deep enough to tickle your childhood memories and then it’s over. No matter what you say to him, he won’t buy you dinner first."
