EXCLUSIVE'Grateful' Ryan Reynolds Thanked Michele Morrone for Being So 'Polite' to Wife Blake Lively on Set of 'A Simple Favor 2'
Ryan Reynolds was 'grateful' for Michele Morrone's kindness when the latter filmed 'A Simple Favor 2' alongside Blake Lively.
Classic Ryan Reynolds... always looking out for his wife, Blake Lively.
The Deadpool star not only openly supports Lively as her biggest fan, but he thanks those in the industry who treat the blonde beauty in a respectful manner — which is why Reynolds was quick to reach out to Michele Morrone after the Italian superstar wrapped filming A Simple Favor 2 alongside Lively and Anna Kendrick.
Michele Morrone revealed a kind message Ryan Reynolds sent him after he wrapped 'A Simple Favor 2.'
During an exclusive chat with OK! about recently signing with independent record label 477 Records, the 33-year-old revealed a memorable conversation he had with the dad-of-four after finishing filming the highly anticipated sequel.
While Reynolds isn't a part of the A Simple Favor 2 cast, Morrone can't help but think of the Free Guy star, 47, when reflecting on the movie.
"I would [like to] mention [Ryan] as well because he's such a sweetheart," the 365 Days actor admits. "Once we ended shooting, he personally sent me a message saying how grateful he was for me to have treated Blake in a very polite and nice way on set."
Like her husband, Lively, 36, was also a gem to work with.
Ryan Reynolds was a 'sweetheart' while supporting his wife, Blake Lively, as she worked on 'A Simple Favor 2.'
"Blake became some sort of sister for me and we became extremely friendly," Morrone shares.
"And Anna is, she's very, very — we say it in Italy — she's very spicy," he adds of Kendrick, 39, with a laugh. "She's an incredible artist. Anna knows how to dance, to sing, to act. She's a complete artist."
Morrone says he feels "blessed" to "have the opportunity" to star alongside such talented A-list actresses.
"It was such a beautiful discovery for me [and] for my life. Everybody on set, they are giving you an experience, you know? And I had a great experience with all of those artists," he expresses.

"It's a beautiful part of my past. When I think of it, I feel happy. But it's just time to go," Morrone concludes.
