Ryan Reynolds has his own way of dealing with things, be it a Christmas gift oopsie (or being dressed as one) or being mistaken for another Hollywood actor. We are talking about Ben Affleck. During a recent Dear Hank and John podcast, Ryan Reynolds revealed that he is mistaken for Ben Affleck at a pizzeria in New York and that he has never corrected them. Well, they’ll know now. Ryan said during the podcast, “There’s a pizza place in the East Village in New York that I’ve been going to for years. They believe I’m Ben Affleck and I’ve never corrected them. I feel it would not go over well if I revealed.”
Ryan Reynolds added that he is often asked about Jennifer Lopez during his visit to the pizzeria. Ben Affleck is currently dating Jennifer Lopez. The Gigli co-stars were engaged back in 2002. However, it ended in a split two years later. The stars couple made their relationship Instagram official on JLo’s birthday this year. They also made several red carpet appearances together. The stars were also pictured together on several occasions.
Coming back to questions of about JLo, Ryan added that he just plays along. “I do everything normal like everybody else,” Reynolds continued. “They just think I’m Ben Affleck and they’ll ask how JLo is and I’m like, ‘Great, good.’ I get the pizza and off I go,” said Ryan Reynolds
