Wrexham's Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively top box office together

Ryan Reynolds took over the north Wales football club in 2021, alongside friend and fellow actor Rob McElhenney.

And Ryan's wife Blake Lively has also been very much part of the journey back to the English Football League too, with Ryan previously stating that she has become 'obsessed' with the club.

But it is of course acting that is the couple's main focus in life - and they have hit the headlines in that respect this week.

That is due to them having become the first married couple to top the US box office together since Bruce Willis and Demi Moore did so in 1990.

According to People, after Blake's 'It Ends With Us' premiered on Friday, Aug. 9, the film has already has taken home $50 million, placing it just behind Ryan's Deadpool & Wolverine (which Blake also stars in as 'Ladypool'), which has grossed more than $54 million last weekend and $494.3 million domestically since its July 26 release.

That places the couple in the top two places in the US box office as it stands this week.

People say that Moore and Willis were the last married couple to have their films become the top domestic films together.

In 1990, Willis had Die Hard 2 out in theatres on July 3, while Moore's Ghost premiered less than two weeks later.

At one point that year at the box office, Die Hard 2 and Ghost were the top two films, respectively. Ghost received five Oscar nominations and won two.

The rankings serve as yet another success story for Ryan and former Gossip Girl star Blake, who have previously starred alongside another in the 2011 film Green Lantern and in IF, which came out earlier this year.

The couple married in 2012 and have four children together.
