Ryan Reynolds joked that Taylor Swift would sue him for using her cats in Deadpool 2. Prior to the release of Deadpool and Wolverine, the actor appeared on the radio show Jess Cagle where he mentioned Swift’s reaction to her cats making it to the big screen.
The actor revealed that the cats on Wade Wilson’s T-shirt were none other than the pop icon’s pet cats Olivia and Meredith. The Grammy-winning singer has been quite close to both Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively. The two are often spotted hanging out with the Karma singer.
When ‘The Proposal’ actor was asked if he had asked Swift’s permission before showing her cats, the actor replied that he had not and the singer sued him.

In a conversation with radio host Cagle, the Hollywood star revealed that it would have been a good idea if he had taken permission from Taylor Swift before featuring her cats in Deadpool 2. “Yeah, I had a T-shirt made. Yeah, with (Swift’s cats) Meredith and Olivia on Wade’s shirt,” Reynolds revealed. He further added, “Yeah, you know, just a little detail, that’s all.”
Cagle immediately asked the actor whether or not he had gotten permission from the pop star, to which the Marvel star denied and joked that that’s why he got sued.
“I lost everything in that,” the actor claimed. Reynolds also laughed and said he had powerful lawyers. And he later found out they were just paralegals, and real lawyers didn’t even bother to look into the case.
All jokes aside, the IF actor said he wouldn’t do anything like that without his dear friend’s permission. Earlier this year, Reynolds and his wife attended Swift’s Eras Tour concert in Madrid.
