“Two Schmucky Showbiz Morons Going In, Falling on Their A****” – Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney Expose Omitting ‘Difficult Moments’ From ‘Welcome to Wrexham’

If it weren’t for the takeover by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, then Wrexham AFC would have been standing in a different place. Ever since the Hollywood duo took control of the ship, the club has amassed significant growth in fame and success. Moreover, the club’s docuseries, ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ have also made the club famous.

Not only did it increase their fame and name, but it also made it to the top charts of the documentary. While fans will definitely be awaiting season two of the docuseries, Reynolds and McElhenney have revealed that they have omitted some difficult moments in the upcoming installment.

The new season of Welcome to Wrexham gets a massive cut

In a recent interview with Variety, the owners opened up about filming the second season of docuseries with a few cuts. “If you’re just reading the headlines, you probably think, ‘Oh, this show is going to be funny’,” said Reynolds. While adding that the show doesn’t center them and focuses majorly on town, he continued, “It’s gonna be a fish-out-of-water story about two schmucky showbiz morons going in, falling on their a****, learning as they go.”

Wrexham changed their coaching staff and released some players in their first season. Hence, it showcased the competitive nature of sports and forced tough decisions on what to air. “Those were really difficult moments. You realise this is not a game, this is not a television show, these are people’s lives,” McElhenney added. “We do not take any of that lightly, and we were on camera making those decisions.”

The Always Sunny actor insisted it was a “conscious choice,” not to put all such scenes in the documentary. He said, “It didn’t seem fair to the people who were going through the real difficult thing in that situation to focus it on us, as if our agony was more important than theirs. It certainly was not.”

It seems the new season will have plenty of entertainment, joy, and drama. However, fans may expect the show to be a bit filtered. Aside from talking about season two, the owners also opened up about the difficult moments.

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have no regrets

As football club owners, Reynolds and McElhenney now understand the gravity of making tough decisions and realize that the game is not merely for amusement. Although they have expressed regret in the past, Wrexham has reached their desired position after securing a promotion. “But all roads lead to here, so no regrets at all,” Reynolds explained.

Despite not gaining promotion in the first season, the Deadpool star insisted on being grateful for all the experiences. He said it helped them cement their foundation in the National League. Reynolds also said his anxiety was ratcheted up this season. While talking about the Notts County game, he insisted on “going into hell.” But he also praised the brilliant efforts of the team.
