The Hollywood A-lister shared a two-and-a-half-minute trailer for the upcoming movie "Deadpool & Wolverine" in which Reynolds co-stars with Hugh Jackman.

But many football fans will be surprised to hear that Wrexham forward Palmer, 32, seems to have been confirmed as an extra.

While Deadpool and Wolverine are talking at a bar, a man can be seen loitering in the background of the scene.

And when the trailer was shared on Instagram, Palmer, who has scored 39 goals in 115 games for Wrexham, responded: "If you squint.. ????."

Reynolds then chimed in with his own response to the rumour which was posted on X.

Replying to a tweet stating that Palmer is in the film, Reynolds added: "Keen eyesight."

And Wrexham fans were quick to praise the move as they prepare to see the ex-Leyton Orient and Wimbledon man on the big screen.

One supporter said: "I thought I was seeing things when I watched it ???? xx."

Another added: "There’s a recruiting tool that no one else in the EFL has. Genius."

It has not yet been confirmed whether or not any more Wrexham players will appear in the film.

Reynolds and co-owner Rob McElhenney celebrated Wrexham's promotion to League One earlier this month.

The Welsh outfit clinched a second successive promotion with a 6-0 win over Forest Green.

Reynolds was reduced to tears as his club secured their place in the third tier.
