Deadpool 3 stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman battled it out on the pitch Monday as they continued filming the action comedy in the south of England.
Ryan, 47, wore all red and black Deadpool clothing including a mask, while Hugh, 55, only wore his yellow and black Wolverine suit.
The film's star jumped energetically onto the annoyed-looking Hugh's back and put an arm around his neck.
Hugh tried to shake him off, but Ryan was too strong at first. Hugh finally succeeded and the two began to walk peacefully side by side.
During these specific scenes, only Ryan and Hugh were on set, but on Friday they were joined by Ryan's stunt double.
