Ryan Reynolds has hinted at the possibility of expanding his family with wife Blake Lively. In a recent interview with E! News, Ryan playfully discussed the idea of welcoming a fifth child, sharing his excitement and joy for family life.

During the interview, which also featured his co-star Hugh Jackman,  the star of Deadpool quipped: “The more the merrier. As many as possible. As many little heartbeats as possible, just running around, wrecking stuff in the house.”

His enthusiasm for family life was palpable as he gushed, “I love it. Let’s have more!”

Ryan and Blake, who have been married since 2012, already share four children: daughters James, 9, Inez, 7, Betty, 4, and a fourth child born earlier this year. Despite their busy careers, the couple remains dedicated to their growing family.

The conversation also touched on the close bond Ryan’s children have with Hugh Jackman. “My kids prefer everything Hugh to me,” Ryan joked, with Hugh adding, “Mainly just as a parent.”

Ryan revealed that Hugh’s films are a staple in their household, especially The Greatest Showman.

“They watched The Greatest Showman more than the editor for The Greatest Showman,” Ryan noted. “And sometimes I come home, and this guy’s actually acting it out with them and that’s kind of amazing,” he added.
