Tributes also poured in from US actors who worked with White during her eight-decade film and TV career, including Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds .

" The World looks very different now, " tweeted Reynolds about his co-star in the 2009 film The Proposal and The Woman whom he jokingly referred to in media interviews as his " ex-girlfriend".

" I've heard Ryan can't get over his thing for me, " White had deadpanned to for its December issue, " but Robert Redford is The One . "
