Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney made five big promises when they took over National League club Wrexham in 2021. Wrexham completed their promotion to the Championship with a win over Charlton Athletic on Saturday and became the first team ever to win three consecutive promotions in English professional football.

Canadian actor Ryan Reynolds said it felt like an "impossible dream" when he floated the idea of buying soccer club Wrexham to fellow Hollywood A-lister Rob McElhenney. He had an idea for a documentary.

Wrexham AFC is just one step away from English soccer's Premier League after being promoted into the system’s second tier — its third straight promotion.
