In a bizarre moment, Spanish viewers were treated to a guest appearance from the actors who are currently on a Press Tour to promote their new film 'Deadpool & Wolverine' which premieres later this month.
The pair burst onto the Spanish broadcaster RTVE set in Berlin cheering "Ole, Ole, Ole".
And when asked to introduce themselves Reynolds said he was fellow actor "Ryan Gosling" while Jackman joked he was the late Playboy founder "Hugh Hefner".
Jackman, 55, then went on to say the reason he was in Germany was because he was called up last minute to play for Gareth Southgate's England squad.

He said: "If you don't know I have a British passport and I have been called in now.
"As everyone knows England are in the semi-final and they want a bit of height. So they need me. I am going to play a little bit."
Then both were questioned on who they were supporting in the tournament to which the Australian actor quickly said "England".
But to everyone's surprise, Reynolds who co-owns Wrexham with Rob McElhenney and has just witnessed his side secure back-to-back promotions to League One confirmed he was backing "Spain".

I know we needed penalties... but England showed vs Switzerland why they can WIN Euro 2024, says Jack Wilshere
IT TOOK penalties to put us through but, before the drama, England showed us why they have the ingredients to do something special, writes Jack Wilshere.
It was a win by the narrowest of margins but this was overall our best performance of Euro 2024.
If we can build on the progress we made, especially in the first half, we could WIN the tournament.
It was not a complete display. There were nervy moments and waiting so long to make changes could have cost us.
But we saw what a good team England can be if they do the right things and put players in the right positions.
The first half was England’s best since the first 45 against Serbia. Maybe even better.
One of the keys to that was our press and the effect it had on Granit Xhaka.
For the first time in four games we were pressing high, winning the ball back in better areas and putting Switzerland on the back foot.
In previous matches, our forwards were pressing but the gaps between our lines were too big.
That was leaving huge gaps for Declan Rice and whoever was partnering him to cover.
This time there was better structure and organisation.
There seemed to be more of a plan for when to drop into a block and when to jump out to press.
Now England have the opportunity to build momentum and show why they can win this tournament.
