Real Reason Why Ryan Reynolds Traded Places With Will Ferrell On ‘Tonight Show’ And ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’

On Wednesday, Will Ferrell was scheduled to advertise his latest Apple TV+ program The Shrink Next Door on NBC’s The Tonight Show, but he then appeared on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! in Ryan Reynolds‘ scheduled spot. Reynolds, 45, unexpectedly came on Jimmy Fallon’s talk program, where both late-night presenters participated with the farce, offering the mismatched guest his originally scheduled questions. Reynolds took Ferrell’s position on The Tonight Show on Wednesday, while the comic took Reynolds’ position on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Reynolds made an attempt to bring up Ferrell’s upcoming Apple TV+ show The Shrink Next Door.

“It’s like an Ant-Man sequel. It takes place in the Ant-Man world “Reynolds guessed correctly.

“It’s Marvel Phase 16, that everyone says is far more realistic,” he said.

Ferrell gave Kimmel his best effort to describe Reynolds’ new Netflix thriller Red Notice.

Reynolds also played on Fallon’s You Have to Stop. The duo performed a comedy in which they itemized stuff that humans should quit doing, such as surfing TikTok prior to sleep.

Ferrell came to Kimmel’s show to undertake science tests with Bob Pflugfelder, a scientist. Ferrell and Kimmel could glide hot dogs while cooking them with welding torches.

Ferrell jested that he has not really watched Reynolds’ new film Red Notice because “I believe it will be successful. I mean, we can only hope, right?”

“How is your lovely wife Blake Lively?” Kimmel then inquired regarding Reynolds’ wife, whom he married in 2012. To which Ferrell grinned and thanked him for inquiring about his wife. He then said that Blake is doing fantastic. It’s a hectic house. He also said that she’s a fantastic cook and that she makes delicious porridge and excellent nachos. Kimmel then also brought up the subject of children to which Ferrell responded that he had 3 girls and looked to gaze aside to prove he was correct. Reynolds and Lively share three daughters: James, 6, Inez, 5, and Betty, 2.

On the subject of Reynolds’ ripped body, Ferrell humorously raised his shirt to show his belly like it was the Deadpool star’s abs and the audience cheered.

Fallon informed Reynolds on The Tonight Show that all the questions he had were tailored for Will but since Reynolds was there he asked about how his wife Blake and the kids were doing.

In the summertime, Ferrell and Reynolds collaborated on Spirited, a contemporary adaptation of Charles Dickens’s famous novel A Christmas Carol. They also did a humorous TikTok karaoke competition in September in which they synchronized to Mika’s smash song “Grace Kelly.”

Both the stars trying to present the surprise as very much genuine dressed in such a way that it seemed they’d just come in off the road. Ferrell came in a Star Wars pajama suit.

“Ryan was unable to attend. I received a text from him saying he was running behind schedule, which typically means he won’t come up… he simply asked if I could fill in, so I drove down the hill “Ferrell informed Kimmel in turn.

Fortunately, both performers were interested and responsive towards questions about one another’s projects — or, or at the very least, anticipate what they would be about well enough to promote them. Reynolds attempted to describe the premise of The Shrink Next Door, comparing it to an Ant-Man picture because Ferrell’s co-star in the movie is Paul Rudd.
