Hugh Jackman has won the last battle in his long-standing feud against Ryan Reynolds. After years of fighting, the two launched a charity promotion campaign last month sponsored by Sam’s Club with shoppers voting for the winner. With Jackman representing the Laughing Man Foundation and Reynolds representing the Sick Kids Foundation, a new video posted on Twitter by Reynolds reveals that he lost the contest to Jackman.

In the video, Hugh Jackman he is informed via video call that he has hit Reynolds. Visibly expressing great emotion, Jackman responds: “This is incredible news, thank you very much. Honestly, it was an honor. Everyone at the Laughing Man Foundation is going to be very happy. “
Jackman then insists that he be the one to leave Ryan Reynolds know the results, taking control to give the dead Pool actor a video call to rub him personally. “Hey, Hugh,” Reynolds says when he answers the call. “You lost the Sam’s Club thing. I won. Everybody hates you. Bye, ”Jackman responds immediately before hanging up.
A spin-off from his company Laughing Man Coffee, Jackman’s Laughing Man Foundation charity works to support educational programs, community development, and social entrepreneurs around the world. For the Sam’s Club contest, Jackman sold his brand of coffee at Sam’s Club to represent the foundation. Meanwhile, Reynolds sold Aviation Gin to represent the Sick Kids Foundation, a group dedicated to fighting for the health and well-being of children both in the United States and abroad.
The vote was simply for the winner’s bragging rights, as both charities have benefited equally from the campaign. When Sam’s Club first announced the contest, it was noted that the company would donate equal amounts to both the Laughing Man Foundation and the Sick Kids Foundation, regardless of who won the contest. That’s great news, as it means everyone involved gets ahead here except Reynolds, who they had to tell in harsh terms that he had lost to Jackman.
Jackman’s victory comes after Reynolds shot his enemy on Twitter earlier this month. A photo posted by a fan shows a bottle of Aviation Gin above Jackman’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame with the brand’s name written on a ribbon above Jackman’s name. Reynolds retweeted the image and said, “Permission to frame this? Or turn it into a billboard? “
