The longtime friends previously watched the Chiefs take on the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on Oct. 1, 2023. They were joined by Swift and her close friend and Reynolds’ wife, Blake Lively, 36, among other stars including Deadpool & Wolverine director Shawn Levy.
“If you ever really want to kinda not feel great about your career, go to [an NFL] game with Taylor Swift and Blake Lively — and then you’re Blake Lively, Taylor Swift and others at the game,” Jackman joked to PEOPLE.
Reynolds agreed and reiterated, “We’re just and others.”
While attending the NFL game back in October, Jackman made sure to document the occasion on his Instagram Stories, sharing a snap alongside Swift, Lively, and Reynolds at the game.
“Probably one of my best selfies ever,” the actor wrote.
As well as revealing their hopes to attend more sporting events with the “Fortnight” hitmaker, Jackman and Reynolds, who have partnered with Heineken Silver for its new “All The Taste,” also told PEOPLE this month she was someone they’d absolutely want to share a beverage with.
“Taylor Swift is a fun person to have a beer with,” Reynolds insisted, to which Jackman quipped: “Who?”
“Well, if you get access to outside information — once you leave the bomb shelter — you’ll understand. Huge politician,” Reynolds joked. “And one of the funnier people. People keep asking if she’s in the movie, and I keep saying if there’s ever someone else to play Deadpool, I think it might actually be Taylor.”
When asked who the bigger celebrity was in his household — Deadpool or Swift — Reynolds insisted, “Oh, Taylor Swift. Do you think I’m a fool? Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift all the way.”
“She uses her powers for good — could use them for bad — but uses them a different way,” the Canadian actor shared, discussing Swift being anything but an anti-hero.
“[She’s] one of the funniest people you’ll meet,” he added.
As well as Reynolds and Lively being close friends with Swift, their daughters James, 9, Inez, 7, and Betty, 4, are also famously referenced in Swift’s Folklore track, “Betty.” The couple are also parents to youngest child, Olin, whom they welcomed in Feb. 2023.
