Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds is in cloud nine. On Monday it was announced the actor sold his co-owned liquor company for a whopping $610 million. And now it seems the actor is in the mood to celebrate.
In true Ryan fashion, he congratulated himself with a pat to the back and penned a snarky e-mail that’s both hilarious and jaw-dropping. His e-mail included an apology to people including his wife Blake Lively, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and George Clooney.
As per a screenshot of the e-mail acquired by EOnline, Ryan Reynolds’ email read, “Thanks for your email. I am currently out of the office but will still be very hard at work selling Aviation Gin. For quite a long time, it seems. He continued, “In related news, I just learned what an ‘earn out’ is… And I’d like to take this opportunity to apologize to everyone I told to go f–k themselves in the last 24 hours.”

His email further read, “My lawyers just explained how long it takes to achieve an ‘earn out’… so… turns out I’m not as George Clooney as I thought. The point is, to those listed below, I’m sorry… and I’ll indeed be needing your help in the coming months and years. Thanks in advance!”
The people in Ryan Reynold’s e-mail include his mom, Blake, Dwayne Johnson, George Clooney, TGI Friday’s, and few more.
For those who do not know, George Clooney has a liquor brand Casamigos – a tequila company co-founded in 2013. It was purchased by Diageo (June 2017) for $700 million with a further $300 million based on the brand’s performance.
The alcoholic drinks group, Diageo announced the purchase of Davos Brands for $610 million. That sum includes an upfront payment of $335 million. The complete portfolio includes brands such as Astral Tequila, Sombra Mezcal and TYKU Sake. Known to general consumers as Aviation American Gin, the label attained widespread recognition in 2018 after actor Ryan Reynolds purchased an undisclosed stake in it. According to the terms of this new deal, Ryan will retain an ongoing ownership interest. According to Bloomberg, Diageo Plc “agreed to an initial payment of $335 million and a further potential consideration of as much as $275 million based on the performance of Aviation American Gin over a 10-year period.”
