Ryan Reynolds and Scarlett Johansson are jewels in Marvel’s crown. Both play major characters in their superhero franchises.
At some point, Deadpool and Black Widow could meet up in a movie. If they do, it will be an interesting reunion for the two actors. Johansson and Reynolds were once married.
Their wedding was small, but they did get to celebrate with some A-list stars. Samuel L. Jackson congratulated the couple by sending them a strange gift. That’s according to Reynolds, who told David Letterman all about it.

Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds were married in 2008
Reynolds and Johansson were married in 2008. It’s hard to imagine their characters getting along, with the Black Widow’s no-nonsense attitude, and Deadpool’s all-nonsense attitude. But Johansson and Reynolds did get along, well enough to get married.
Johansson and Reynolds were dating for just over a year before walking down the aisle. They were very private about their relationship. Reynolds’ Letterman interview is one of the only times either actor talked about their marriage.

Samuel L. Jackson gave Ryan Reynolds an interesting wedding gift
Jackson gifted the newlywed couple 10,000 bees. It was one of the only wedding gifts the two received. Johansson and Reynolds are well-off and had everything they needed. They decided not to “do wedding gifts,” according to Reynolds. But when a special delivery of a bee hive arrived at their door, it was too good to pass up.
The bees arrived in the trunk of a car. The box “hummed,” as Reynolds told Letterman. Jackson also included beekeeping outfits and a lifetime subscription to American Beekeeper’s Journal. Reynolds and Johansson got to enjoy their very own honey. Plus, Reynolds told Letterman the gift is
” … a great security system. Some people are afraid of alarms, some people aren’t. Some people are afraid of guard dogs, some people aren’t. But I don’t know anyone who is not afraid of terrible, terrible swarms of bees.”
