Ryan Reynolds might be a huge movie star, but even his busy shooting schedule hasn't stopped him from tuning in to his beloved Wrexham - after finding a unique way of streaming their games on set.
The Wrexham owner - star of big budget franchises like Deadpool - often promotes his Welsh club on social media when he can following his takeover with fellow actor Rob McElhenney in 2021 that shocked the world.
Reynolds has since overseen an incredible season that saw the club promoted back to the Football League for the first time in 15 years, bringing huge publicity to Wrexham along the way after inviting a handful of big name celebrities to matches.
And Reynolds could soon be celebrating back-to-back promotions for the first time in the club's 159-year history after he watched their 4-1 win over Crawley while 'at work' shooting his latest movie.
That big win means Wrexham are now potentially just one win away from sealing their place in League One - should they beat basement club Forest Green and other results work in their favour.

Reynolds certainly looked to be in a good mood as he beamed in full costume on set while the Crawley win was being aired behind him on a massive green screen - which is usually used to film epic sequences involving computer generated imagery.
The American was seen wearing green overalls - perhaps similar to what a fighter jet pilot would wear. It appears he was filming an upcoming adventure film called Mayday, which is rumoured to feature a main character who is a pilot and is slated as being in production currently.
He looked up at the screen to see Paul Mullin celebrating one of his two goals at the Racecourse Ground before letting out a fist pump while Mullin was racing away before Wrexham saw out a huge win over promotion chasers Crawley.
Ryan Barnett had struck first before Mullin made it 2-0 in the first half before Andy Cannon gave the home side a comfortable three-goal cushion.
Mullin then grabbed a brace before Klaidi Lolos added a consolation in injury time.

Wrexham would need both Barrow and MK Dons to drop points if they do beat Forest Green in order to get promoted.
And boss Phil Parkinson and assistant Steve Parkin have been doing their best to lower expectations to ensure the players don't get too ahead of themselves.
Parkin said: 'It's difficult to ban people talking about it or not mention it. But in the dressing room, they know how hard it was last year, they know what it takes to get promoted.'
He added: '[Promotion] would be very nice. There's not many clubs who've achieved that.'
