    With their feud now 13 years in the making, The Greatest Showman star decided to return the favor, and rally some friends and colleagues to wish Reynolds a happy 45th birthday on Saturday, October 23.

    In the clip, crew members took turns telling Reynolds ‘happy birthday’ as the photographer moved from one room to the next, ultimately finding Jackman sitting down getting his hair and makeup styled for a photoshoot.

    From the top, the camera operator zig-zagged around the rooms and captured nine people who offered a ‘happy birthday Ryan.’

    There was even one guy who changed things up with a ‘happy birthday Blake, ‘ in a reference to Reynolds’ wife, Blake Lively. 

    Finally, after the makeup artist said her ‘happy birthday Ryan’, Jackman could only muster a sigh when he attempted to say the sweet sentiment himself.

    ‘It’s not easy… Happy birthday, Ryan,’ he said while looking straight into the camera.

    ‘There you go, we got it! How many people did we get? People say I don’t like you, but that was 15 people.’     

    Jackman then pulled out a nice bundle of cash and began counting it, as if to signify that he had to pay his colleagues for wishing Reynolds happy birthday on camera.

    The Aussie star first paid his makeup stylist her fee, and then handed over the rest of wad of money to the camera operator, which he said was for ‘the rest of you.’

    ‘They say I don’t love you,’ the actor said of Reynolds, just as he made the final payment.

    In Reynolds’ birthday post to Jackman on October 12, the Deadpool star did his best not to break character and start laughing.

    ‘Hey Hugh, I just want to wish you a happy birthday and tell you I love you. I’m down here in Atlanta so wish I could be celebrating with you,’ he began.

    ‘You may notice it’s a little quiet around the house this morning, that’s because I flew Deb, the kids, the dogs, your friends and furniture here to celebrate your birthday with me,’ he continued, in a reference to his wife of 25 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, and their two children Oscar, 21, and Ava, 16.

    He ended the clip by professing: ‘We’re having an amazing time and we miss you.’

    'Happy birthday':'It's not easy... Happy birthday, Ryan,' he said while looking straight into the camera.

    The fictitious feud started back when the two stars met on the set of X-Men Origins: Wolverine in 2008, and they quickly began to rib each other over Reynolds’ then wife, Scarlett Johansson, whom he was married to from 2008 until 2011.

    And according to Jackman, he had been ‘close friends with Scarlett’ over the years. 

    ‘Scarlett had just married Ryan,’ Jackson explained to The Daily Beast, adding, ‘So when he came on set I was like, “Hey, you better be on your best behavior here, pal, because I’m watching”, and we started ribbing each other that way.’ 

    Hugh said things ‘escalated’ after Reynolds took on the role of Deadpool, and thus proving to be a rival to his portrayal of Wolverine.
