Ryan Reynolds & Rob McElhenney are taking over Sky Sports for Wrexham vs Snoop Dogg’s Swansea

Fans and those watching on Sky Sports will get a special treat during the upcoming Wrexham versus Swansea match: Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney will be giving football commentary.

Since Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney bought Wrexham in 2021, they’ve dramatically increased the club’s popularity, turning it into a global phenomenon with a growing fanbase in the United States.

The team has responded well and is now aiming for an unprecedented fourth consecutive promotion. Fans eager to watch their upcoming match against Swansea will also be able to hear live commentary and insights from owners Reynolds and McElhenney throughout the game.

Ryan Reynolds will commentate on Wrexham game

Wrexham plays Swansea at their famous Racecourse Ground on March 13th. Fans can watch the match live on Sky Sports, with a special option to listen to commentary from actors instead of the usual commentators.

Everyone knows Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney aren’t football experts, so listening to them commentate live will be a fun way to see how much they’ve learned about the sport over time.

Sky Sports is doing something new with the show ‘Live from Wrexham with Rob & Ryan.’ Throughout the broadcast, they’ll be joined by well-known guests offering their perspectives. Given Rob and Ryan’s connections, it’s possible celebrities like Hugh Jackman might make an appearance.

When asked about taking on this new challenge, the actors admitted they weren’t sure how it would go – much like when they first took over Wrexham five years ago. They plan to give it their all, despite having no experience calling sporting events, and only a basic understanding of the rules of the sport itself, which they’ve been learning for the past five years.

No matter what happens, we’re expecting another exciting and unpredictable day at the Racecourse, and we can’t wait! We’re thankful for the support of our partners at the EFL and Sky Sports – we’re hoping Sky Sports is prepared to censor anything unexpected!

Snoop Dogg will be desperate for a win to spoil the party

As a huge fan, I’m so excited because Snoop Dogg is now connected with Swansea! It’s going to be amazing to see what happens when these two worlds collide – it’s a celebrity showdown I definitely won’t want to miss!

Honestly, I’m still hoping Snoop Dogg will show up in Wales again so soon after his first visit! That would be amazing. Or even if he just did some commentary online, that’d be pretty cool too.

Wrexham is currently doing very well, with an 11-point lead over Swansea and a spot in the Championship’s top six. If they continue playing this well, they have a good chance of reaching the play-offs and potentially getting promoted to the Premier League.

Snoop Dogg would probably be thrilled if his team could beat Wrexham and spoil the fun for Rob and Ryan.
