Kapamilya actor Donny Pangilinan and vlogger Cong TV had a memorable moment as they got the chance to rub elbows with Hollywood stars Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds at a press event in South Korea.
Pangilinan and Cong took to Instagram to share their selfies with the “Deadpool & Wolverine” actors.
Pangilinan said he tried to imitate Jackman’s iconic hairstyle for Wolverine, writing in the caption, “My Wolverine hair failed, but [it’s] all good.”
In the comment section of his post, fellow celebrities, including Elmo Magalona, Daniel Matsunaga, Bianca Gonzalez and Agot Isidro, expressed their enthusiastic reactions to their encounter with the Hollywood stars.
“Oh my god,” wrote Gonzalez.
“Amazing [fire emojis],” said Matsunaga, while Isidro reacted, “What???”

Pangilinan’s father, Anthony Pangilinan, joked that he hoped his son extended their apologies to Jackman and Reynolds for not being able to cast them in Donny’s last movie, “GG,” opposite his mother, Maricel Laxa.
“Great. I hope you didn’t forget to recruit them to join our pool of volunteers for @calledtorescuephilippines. And you sent them our apologies for not casting them in @officialggthemovie? Next time, promise [smiling face open mouth cold sweat emoji],” wrote Anthony.
Meanwhile, Cong poked fun at his caption by saying he and Pangilinan had to put down their basketball rivalry to accommodate the Hollywood big shots.
“Isinantabi muna namin ang away namin ni @donny sa basketbol para pagbigyan sila na magvideo video daw,” wrote the vlogger. (Me and Donny put aside our fight in basketball because they wanted to take some video.)
The two had the chance to interview the Hollywood stars about their upcoming film “Deadpool & Wolverine,” which premieres in Philippine cinemas on July 24.
