Ryan Reynolds congratulated Joaquin Phoenix and Todd Philips on becoming the highest-grossing R-rated movie of all-time on Twitter. The Wade Wilson actor tweeted a photo of the Joker on the now iconic stairs in the Bronx with characters from the film that were some of the highest-grossing R-rated films such as Pennywise, Jesus, The Wolfpack, Christian Grey, Neo, and his friend Hugh Jackman. The poster also said: “Motherf*cker.”
“R-Rated box office congratulatory posts aren’t like the ones you’re used to,” Reynolds tweeted out on his @VancityReynolds Twitter account.
