(People) - Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively were just "buddies" while filming The Green Lantern together six years ago, but after it wrapped a new and more intimate flame was ignited – while they were on a double date with other people.
"About a year after Green Lantern had come and gone and we were both single we went on a double date – she was on a date with another guy and I was on a date with another girl – and it was like the most awkward date for the respective parties because we were just like fireworks coming across," he told PEOPLE and EW Editorial Director Jess Cagle on SiriusXM's Entertainment Weekly Radio Deadpool special.
Tough break for the other guy in this story, but really what did he expect? Who the hell thinks it's a good idea to invite the guy with model good looks and a great sense of humor to your date with one of the hottest people on the planet?!?! If anything you invite someone like me -- short, not threatening in the looks department (I've heard people say I'm just cute, not hot), overly chatty with the good possibility of saying something repulsive -- to dinner so that you can come off looking even better, not the guy who stars in super hero movies as the super hero.
In all seriousness though, this has to be brutal for the other guy in the story. He's the tragic victim here. He probably thought to himself, "I only have one chance with Blake. This could be life changing for me, so I have to impress her. I know, I'll invite Ryan. He's not only every girl's dream, but he's like every guy's man crush too. Plus, it's not like he'll try to swoop in and scoop n' score either. Win-win."
Uh, newsflash, bro. Ryan Reynolds only has one speed. You don't go from Alanis Morrisette to Scarlett Johansson without cutting a few throats along the way.
