Warner Bros. Asks Ryan Reynolds For Their Green Lantern Ring Back and Reynolds Hilariously Responds
The Green Lantern movie that Warner Bros. made with Ryan Reynolds has been the butt of a few jokes in the Deadpool franchise. The actor has made it very clear over the years that he regrets being a part of the movie.
There's a pretty brutal joke in Deadpool 2 at the expense of Green Lantern. I won't spoil it for you but apparently, it was bad enough for Warner Bros. to tweet Ryan Reynolds and ask for the Green Lantern ring back.
Sorry @VancityReynolds, we're going to need the ring back. pic.twitter.com/dPyfsRPUYg

Reynolds then came back with this hilarious response:
Well, if we’d used a NuvaRing™️ in the first place, we wouldn’t be in this mess. #deadpool2

Just in case you don't know what a NuvaRing is, it's a vaginal contraceptive ring which was popular around the time that Green Lantern came out. They are now in the process of settling a $100 million lawsuit after being accused of hiding negative side effects.
In the end, we all learn from our mistakes and if that terrible Green Lantern movie hadn't been made, Reynolds wouldn't have been able to make fun of it in his Deadpool movies!
