Martha Stewart says her neighbor Ryan Reynolds ‘isn’t funny’ in real life: ‘He’s very serious’

Martha Stewart says her neighbor Ryan Reynolds ‘isn’t funny’ in real life: ‘He’s very serious’

It’s unlikely that Ryan Reynolds will be making Martha Stewart laugh anytime soon.

The lifestyle maven, 83, admitted her neighbor, the 48-year-old Deadpool & Wolverine star, isn’t as funny in person.

The businesswoman served as a special guest for Bilt Rewards’ November Rent Free game show, when she was asked what celebrities she thought respondents named as the most fun to hang out with.

‘He’s probably on the list just ’cause he covers himself up in his movies and you don’t see his face — Ryan Reynolds, is he one of those?’ Martha — who recently slammed the ‘lazy’ Netflix documentary about her life — said to Bilt CEO Ankur Jain.

‘And you want to know something? He’s not so funny in real life,’ she then added of Blake Lively’s husband.

‘No, he’s not so funny. He’s very serious,’ Martha shared.

When Ankur said he was ‘so surprised that [he] isn’t funny,’ Martha said: ‘He’s a good actor. He can act funny, but he isn’t funny.’

‘Maybe he can get to be funny again,’ she added, while Ankur said he was ‘so disappointed.’

‘I’m going to get in trouble,’ Martha chimed in, adding, ‘he’s my neighbor.’

Martha then named Brad Pitt and George Clooney, though they were not on the list, saying: ‘I’d like to hang out with those guys.’

The three top answers were then revealed as Taylor Swift, Ryan, and Martha’s good pal Snoop Dogg.

Martha said she would take Ryan off the list and put in Clooney in third place instead, moving Snoop up on the list.

”Cause he’s fun. George is really nice to hang out with,’ she said.

Martha’s farm is located near the Bedford, N.Y. home Reynolds shares with wife Blake and their four kids.

Reynold’s has starred in a number of comedies, including the Deadpool films — Deadpool (2016), Deadpool 2 (2018), and Deadpool & Wolverine (2024) — National Lampoon’s Van Wilder (2002), Waiting… (2005), The Proposal (2009), Spirited (2022), and Free Guy (2021).

Stewart was on the game show to promote her new cookbook, Martha: The Cookbook: 100 Favorite Recipes, with Lessons and Stories from My Kitchen, released October 22.

The Netflix documentary about her life, titled Martha, was also released in October, but the star revealed she ‘hated’ the final scenes and believed the second half to be ‘a bit lazy’.

The businesswoman’s life is put under the spotlight in the film by R.J. Cutler, which traces her rise from a teenage model to her reign as the original influencer and America’s first self-made female billionaire.

While the documentary has already made numerous headlines thanks to Martha’s candor about her 29-year marriage to her ex-husband Andy and their extra-marital affairs, the mogul isn’t pleased with the project.

In a new no-holds barred interview, Martha detailed the numerous elements she was unhappy with – including unflattering camera angles and various anecdotes left on the cutting room floor.

‘Those last scenes with me looking like a lonely old lady walking hunched over in the garden? Boy, I told him to get rid of those. And he refused,’ she raged.

‘I hate those last scenes. Hate them.’

Speaking to The New York Times, Martha explained that she had ruptured her Achilles’ tendon and had recently had an operation, hence the limping.

‘But again, he [R.J.] doesn’t even mention why — that I can live through that and still work seven days a week,’ she quipped.

Martha was particularly irritated about R.J. using the ‘ugliest’ camera angle, despite her insisting that he should change it.

‘He had three cameras on me,’ she said. ‘And he chooses to use the ugliest angle. And I told him, ‘Don’t use that angle! That’s not the nicest angle. You had three cameras. Use the other angle.’ He would not change that.’

If that wasn’t enough, Martha expressed upset over the documentary’s music too, confessing that she would have preferred if rap music had been used rather than the classical score that R.J. went for.
