Ryan Reynolds shared a video of his nude scene with his former co-star Sandra Bullock in celebration of her 59th birthday.
The actor, 46, posted the famous clip from their 2009 rom-com, The Proposal, on Wednesday.
“Happy Birthday to the inimitable and stunning Sandra Bullock! For your birthday this year, I got us both intimacy coordinators. And an HR department. And clothing?” he captioned the video on Instagram.
In the famous scene, the pair bump into each other while both naked.
Bullock, 59, slips while searching for a towel after a shower and Reynolds has just stripped off his clothes after going on a run.
The film centres on Bullock playing a pushy boss who strong-arms her assistant to marry her to avoid deportation to her home country of Canada.
The Oscar winner reminisced about filming the scene on the About Last Night Podcast with Adam Ray in 2021, sharing that she felt a sense of “camaraderie and safety” filming with the Deadpool star.
“Ryan and I have known each other since we were pre-pubescent. We go way, way, way back,” she explained
“We had to do the naked scene that day and Anne Fletcher, our director who’s just incredible, she’s great.”
Bullock explained that the scene was shot with a closed set, so only a few people like hair and makeup staff were on the set when they filmed.
“Ryan and I have these flesh-coloured things stuck to our privates, my hair is strategically over the nipples and Ryan’s little — not little, at all!” she said.
“It’s just whatever’s there, and I don’t know because I didn’t see it, I didn’t look.”
The Birdbox star added that at one point Fletcher called out: “Ryan, we can see your ball sack!” which prompted Bullock to repeat to herself, “Don’t look down, don’t look down.”
The offending testes didn’t bother Reynolds.
“Ryan was just so cool. Unflappable. He is absolutely unflappable,” Bullock gushed.
Bullock isn’t the only person Reynolds has teased online.
He has a longstanding “feud” with Hugh Jackman and enjoys playfully trolling his wife, Blake Lively.
In 2017, he wished Lively a happy birthday by posting a photo of the two of them with only a tiny sliver of Lively’s face shown.
