Wrexham’s trip to Norwich on Saturday is set to reignite one of Hollywood’s most infamous feuds.
The Red Dragons make the trip to Carrow Road for their sixth match of the Championship season.
Reynolds and Jackman will reunite their ‘feud’ at Carrow Road on SaturdayPA Wrexham travel to face Norwich as they go in search of their second league victoryGettyPhil Parkinson’s side will be looking to bounce back from their home defeat to Queens Park Rangers with a second victory of the campaign.
Their loss to the Hornets leaves Wrexham 21st in the table after winning just one of their first five fixtures.
It follows three successive promotions to return to the second tier after a 43-year absence.
Co-owner Ryan Reynolds will also have the chance to get one over one of his closest friends with a victory against the Canaries.
Fellow actor Hugh Jackman has made no secret of his support for the East Anglia club.
The Australian explained the reasoning behind his decision to become a lifelong Norwich fan back in July 2024.
He told The One Show: “My mum was born and bred and lives in Norwich. I grew up in Australia, my parents emigrated.
“I remember being about seven and saying to my parents, ‘I want to find a team’.
“‘Dad, where are you from?’ He goes ‘I’m from London’. I said, ‘well what’s the team?’ He was like ‘there are five teams’.
“I said ‘mum where are you from?’ She goes ‘Norwich’.”
Jackman has attended Wrexham matches with Reynolds but is a lifelong Norwich fanGettyThe club’s lack of silverware has not deterred Jackman, who added: “We haven’t won a lot. We won the Milk Cup. It’s ok, I’m here for the long run.”
Jackman was even approached to invest in Norwich back in 2011 prior to their promotion to the Premier League.
Having turned down the opportunity, though, he has since been offered the chance to do the same at other clubs since Reynolds’ Wrexham takeover.
His friend and co-star bought the then National League side alongside Rob McElhenney in 2020 before overseeing their climb up the divisions.
Those promotions have set up a first meeting between Norwich and Wrexham since 1982.
The visitors will be looking for only their second win in the fixture, with their previous victory coming in the FA Cup 45 years ago.
