They’re two of the biggest stars in the world, both hugely in-demand actors, and they’re part of the same billion-dollar franchise. But Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson, or rather their characters, Deadpool and Black Widow, haven’t crossed paths in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (the MCU). This might have a little something to do with the fact that the A-listers were very close at one point. In fact, as Elle UK notes, Reynolds and Johansson were married from 2008 to 2011, after they originally started seeing each other in 2007.
However, despite their celebrity status, the couple was rarely photographed together and didn’t even mention each other by name in interviews. In fact, when Johansson spoke to Vanity Fair in 2019, almost a decade after their split, she continued to vaguely refer to her second husband without acknowledging that he was Ryan Reynolds. Do these two avoid sharing the screen because they’re on bad terms following the divorce, or is there a simpler explanation for why Deadpool and Black Widow never cross paths?

Both parties have moved on and married other people, while Reynolds has made lucrative business deals outside of the entertainment industry, so it shouldn’t be a massive issue if it happens.
