Getty/Zayn - InstagramRyan Reynolds has wished Zayn Malik a happy birthday the only way he knows how, as the daring Deadpool.
That’s right the Merc’ with a Mouth himself, Wade Wilson, AKA Ryan Reynolds has wished the former One Direction star Zayn Malik a happy birthday.
In a personalised video message for Zayn, Wade recounts a rather embarrassing encounter where the Regenerating Degenerate jumped out of a birthday cake only to get tased, creatively, by the singer’s security.
Wade explains their encounter:
Zayn! It’s Wade. Don’t hang up! I just wanna wish you a very happy birthday. Again. Uh, I also want to apologise for jumping out of the cake like that.
I didn’t realise it was the middle of the night, I had no idea it was in the middle of your bedroom.
I wanna thank your security… who were very, very gentle… and creative with uh, the taser.
So, anyway. Happy birthday to you and Mr. Tim Horton. You share your birthday with a very special Canadian who is very near and dear to my heart.
This isn’t the first time Ryan’s reached out to a member of One Direction. When Louis Tomlinson’s kid was born Ryan had the following advice for him.

He’s going to be fine. I don’t know him personally, but I’m sure he’s going to make a wonderful dad. Actually, I’m not sure of that because I don’t know him.
Fans of the red-suited mercenary were made up last week when it was announced that Deadpool 2 won’t be hitting cinemas on June 1, instead it will be May 18.

This puts Wade on a collision course with another wisecracking cinematic icon, Han Solo who will be appearing in his own film Solo: A Star Wars Story, which comes out a week later.
Deadpool 2 will continue Wade’s story introducing him to comic book best bud Cable, played by Josh Brolin, and will see him go up against the evil Black Tom Cassidy.
More of a concept than a journalist, Tom Percival was forged in the bowels of Salford University from which he emerged grasping a Masters in journalism.
Since then his rise has been described by himself as ‘meteoric’ rising to the esteemed rank of Social Editor at UNILAD as well as working at the BBC, Manchester Evening News, and ITV.
He credits his success to three core techniques, name repetition, personality mirroring, and never breaking off a handshake.
