Ryan Reynolds jokingly ‘moved’ Emilia Clarke’s birthday to a new date

Ryan Reynolds and fellow actor Emilia Clarke happen to share the same birthday. 

And in an attempt to jokingly claim the day for himself, Reynolds, 44, announced via Twitter that he gave Clarke, 34, a ‘new birthday’ this year.

‘So sorry. I moved her birthday this year. It was feeling a little crowded for me,’ replied Ryan to a tweet his production company Maximum Effort sent out in Clarke’s honor on Friday.

Hours later, the Deadpool star returned to Twitter to unveil the birthdate he had chosen on the Game Of Thrones actress’ behalf. 

‘Excited to announce February 29th as Emilia’s new birthday. Congratulations!’ read Reynolds’ tweets, which has since garnered over 50,000 likes on the platform.

The new date is a leap day, which would effectively give Emilia a birthday every four years, or once every ‘leap year’.

Shortly after, Ryan shifted focus away from his day of birth by opening up about his ‘first time’ voting in an American Presidential election.

The Canadian native wrote: ‘I sh*t you not, it was among the most exciting things I’ve ever done. I’m optimistic about the future. I’m excited to be a part of this process.’

He also included a self-portrait that showed him proudly holding onto his ballot, while donning a pair of sharp seeing glasses and a navy blue button down shirt. 

Ryan’s wife Blake Lively paid homage to her husband’s ‘first time’ voting by penning a tribute riddled with double entendres 

‘It was Ryan’s first time. He was understandably scared. It all happened so fast. Like, REALLY fast. He wept. I pretended to weep. Then he called all his friend. #voteearly,’ captioned the Gossip Girl star on Instagram.

To coincide with her hilarious caption, Blake uploaded a sweet snapshot of herself and Ryan beaming for the camera before turning in their ballots.  

Lively and Reynolds have become one of Hollywood’s most beloved couples since meeting on the set of their action film The Green Lantern in 2010.

The pair officially took their relationship to the next level in 2011 and by September of 2012 they were married.

‘What could match the profound existential terror of another birthday? Jumping out of a g*dd*mn plane is what,’ wrote Clarke, who shared a slew of snapshots from her sky diving adventure with her Instagram followers.
