The scene opens on a stark, brightly lit room. It’s the kind of clinical setting that puts you on edge, like a dentist's office crossed with an interrogation room. Two figures sit awkwardly across from each other: Ryan Reynolds, looking dapper as ever, and Hugh Jackman, radiating a rugged charm. Between them sits a formidable-looking polygraph machine, its wires snaking out like metallic tentacles.

“Welcome, gentlemen,” a voice booms from off-camera. “Today, we’re going to delve into the truth.”

This is no ordinary interview.

Ryan and Hugh are about to be subjected to a lie detector test, and judging by the mischievous glint in their eyes, they’re relishing every moment.

First up is Ryan, strapped into the polygraph while Hugh takes on the role of the inquisitor. The questions start innocently enough – real name, birthplace – with Ryan breezily confirming his identity as Ryan Rodney Reynolds, a Vancouver native (well, sort of – he throws in a curveball about being born in a place called Murrayville).

But the mood shifts as Hugh, clearly enjoying his newfound power, digs deeper.

 He probes into Ryan’s acting career, bringing up a high school drama class failure and his notorious aversion to singing auditions.  Ryan, ever the showman, throws out self-deprecating quips, but the polygraph detects a hint of deception.

The interrogation takes a personal turn as Hugh asks about Ryan’s marriage to Blake Lively. With a hint of pride (and a touch of feigned exasperation), Ryan confirms that Blake is indeed his wife, adding that they'd rather endure a 24-hour "Paw Patrol" marathon than watch "Green Lantern" together again.
