Over the years, Ryan Reynolds has become known for his witty, social media posts and his sarcastic humor. More often than not, the actor chooses to show off his funny side online. However, with a new year kicking off, it seems like he might be ready to turn over a new leaf. In a post on social media, he ended up sharing a heartfelt birthday wish for his friend of 30 years.

In a post far from his usual hilarious ones, the Deadpool 3 star ended up showing his fans a way more vulnerable side of him.

Ryan Reynolds’ special birthday wish for a friend

In a story to his Instagram account, Ryan Reynolds shared a picture of him and his long-time friend, Peter Zerbinos. The post was to wish his friend for his birthday. While not much is known about the actor’s childhood friends, he ended up revealing that they had known each other since they were just 10 years old. While he never gave up his friend’s age, with the actor being 47 years old, their friendship without a doubt has come a long way.

The two had initially met back when The Adam Project star was studying at Kitsilano High School when he was a child. Since then, they have managed to keep their friendship alive as they found fame and success. Not much is known about the actor’s friend, Zerbinos, except for the fact that his family owns the Broadway Bakery which has become popular due to its spanakopita.

Ryan Reynolds Shares His Imagery of Love, and It Is Not Blake Lively

While this was a new side to Reynolds, it came shortly after he had spammed his social media with pictures that encapsulated his 2023.

Ryan Reynolds’ New Years photo dumps

On New Year, Ryan Reynolds took to his Instagram to share a recap of the year he had. While most people chose to share only one photo dump, the actor decided that one was not enough for him. Instead, he ended up sharing 2 different carousel posts that were filled with pictures from his year. While both his posts started off with pictures of Blake Lively, he ended up choosing good pictures of her instead of hilarious ones like in their previous anniversary posts.

From posts with his fans, family, and even players from his football club with Rob McElhenney, the photo dumps were filled with spectacular moments. In fact, he even shared a few pictures of his time on the Deadpool 3 and pictures with director, Shawn Levy and Hugh Jackman.
