Appearing on The View, both the actors spoke about what their friendship is like behind the curtains, admitting that there are feelings of vulnerability between them, prompting host Sara Haines to ask, “If you dig deep down, is it maybe competing covers of Sexiest Man Alive?”

“When we catch up, we do assume the pose,” Jackman said, as their covers flashed on the screen behind them. Reynolds responded, “What am I doing there? That’s not comfortable.”
