While the Olympics have captured much of our attention, the latest Marvel film, "Deadpool and Wolverine," has been a box-office sensation since its release on July 25th. Packed with raunchy humor, surprise cameos, and hidden roles, the film has exceeded expectations. However, it's the opening minutes that have truly set a record, not for its action or violence, but for its R-rated dance number.

The scene features Deadpool showcasing impressive choreography to NSYNC's iconic "Bye Bye Bye." While many assumed it was Ryan Reynolds himself, the truth is that professional dancer Nick Pauley donned the suit for this show-stopping performance. Pauley, known for his work in music videos with artists like Katy Perry and Doja Cat, recently took to Instagram to reveal the well-kept secret.
 

Fans expressed their surprise and admiration on social media, with many believing Reynolds had personally mastered the moves. Pauley's post shed light on the behind-the-scenes magic, thanking the team for their support and celebrating the film's success.

"Deadpool and Wolverine" is currently playing in cinemas, offering audiences a unique blend of action, comedy, and unexpected dance moves.
