Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney cried tears of joy as they watched Wrexham, which the duo bought in 2020, reach the English Football League for the first time in 15 years on Saturday.

Reynolds and McElhenney were joined in their box at the Racecourse Ground by fellow actor Paul Rudd to watch a 3-1 win over Boreham Wood that secured the Welsh side's passage to the fourth tier of the English football pyramid.

"I think we can hear what it feels to the town. It's a moment of catharsis for them and celebration. For us to be welcomed into their community and be welcomed to this experience, has been the honour of my life," said McElhenney, most famous for his role in the comedy series "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia."

Bore da, pawb! ❤️

Wrexham have garnered global appeal since "Deadpool" star Reynolds and McElhenney took control from a supporters trust with an initial £2 million ($2.5 million) investment.

"I am not sure I can process what happened tonight. I am still little speechless," said Reynolds.

"People said at the beginning 'why Wrexham?'. This is exactly why Wrexham. This happening, right now, is why."

Wrexham boast a proud history as the third-oldest professional football club in the world, with past glories including an FA Cup win over Arsenal and a European Cup Winners' Cup triumph against Porto.

But they had fallen on hard times as financial problems saw an 87-year stay in the Football League come to an end in 2008.

It is noteworthy that before lining up in League Two next season, glamour friendlies against Manchester United and Chelsea await Wrexham in the United States.
