It looks like Hugh Jackman enlisted the help of Jake Gyllenhaal to prank his former X-Men Origins: Wolverine costar, Ryan Reynolds. Reynolds shared a photo of the three of them at a Christmas party on his Instagram account, which you can see below.

Going by the Instagram post, Gyllenhaal and Jackman fooled Reynolds into thinking he was going to an ugly sweater Christmas party. It wasn’t, and Reynolds was apparently the only one of the three wearing an ugly Christmas sweater.

Reynolds and Jackman have gone back and forth with good natured pranks against each other on social media in the past. Last month, Reynolds mocked Jackman with a comedic political ad inspired by Jackman portraying Gary Hart in the film The Front Runner. Now, it seems Reynolds has received a taste of his own medicine.
