After delivering the massive Marvel hit Deadpool & Wolverine, Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman will reportedly reunite on the Academy Awards stage to host the ceremony.

Deadline has confirmed that the duo has been approached by the ceremony organizers, along with other celebrities like Dwayne Johnson, Will Ferrell, and Amy Poehler. Additionally, Kevin Hart and Chris Rock have not been considered for the role this year, and both Jimmy Kimmel and John Mulaney have turned down the offer.

The offers come in for Jackman and Reynolds after the actors won over fans’ hearts with their on-screen chemistry. Meanwhile, the duo previously took over the Oscars stage back in 2009. According to a few sources close to the actors, the Marvel duo has been giving mixed signals about whether they will take up the gig or not.

As per Deadline, an insider revealed, “The outreach is real, but there are mixed signals as to whether the stars are willing to participate.”

They further added, “I would guess there is also the question of Disney’s and Marvel’s actual planned Oscar campaign for Deadpool & Wolverine, where I’ve heard Reynolds will be campaigned for lead actor and Jackman for supporting.”

Ananya Panday, who has had back-to-back success with her recent projects, is admired by fans for her honesty. Recently, the actress shared that many people believe she is not approachable in real life. The actress explained that those people’s opinions change only when they meet and know her in person. 

In today’s world, people often judge a person from a distance and form wrong perceptions before meeting them. Ananya recently had a candid conversation with Prajakta Koli on her podcast show So Positive By Ananya Panday and revealed that she has faced a similar situation.

The CTRL actress shared that people are often hesitant to approach her in real life because they perceive her as unapproachable. Moreover, they have additional opinions about her, like ‘she is not easy to talk to,’ which has been a constant misconception.

However, people’s opinions gradually change when they meet her. Explaining the same, Ananya said, “When they meet me, they’re like, okay, you’re like one of us, and you’re like, you know, so that is a misconception that I get a lot.”

In a previous conversation with India Today, she shared her approach towards the opinions of others. She mentioned that she is currently in a phase of her life where she is taking risks and trying different things in her career. Consequently, she places a lot of value on people’s opinions. 

The Call Me Bae actress explained, “A lot of my self-worth depends on people’s opinions and criticism. Their feedback matters a lot to me, especially when it comes to my work.” 

On the work front, Ananya has received appreciation from all corners for her performance in the Netflix film CTRL, co-starring Vihaan Samat. She will next be seen in Shankara, co-starring Akshay Kumar.
