Ryan Reynolds Faces Backlash Over Daughter's Explicit Line in 'Deadpool & Wolverine'

The revelation that Reynolds' 7-year-old daughter delivered a sexually explicit line in the film has reignited ethical debates about child actors and parental responsibility.

  • Ryan Reynolds admitted on a commentary track that his daughter Inez, then 7, delivered a sexually explicit line in 'Deadpool & Wolverine.'
  • The explicit line, which involved a crude reference to Wolverine, was recorded between 70 and 500 times according to director Shawn Levy.
  • Critics and social media users argue the line could have been dubbed over, given the character's masked appearance, or removed entirely.
  • Reynolds revealed Inez initially resisted saying the line but changed her mind after he considered recasting the role.
  • The backlash coincides with Reynolds and Blake Lively's ongoing $400 million defamation lawsuit with Justin Baldoni, intensifying public scrutiny of the couple.
