Hollywood Stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mcelhenney have been awarded the Freedom of Wrexham.

The honour was conferred upon them just hours before at The Racecourse .

Wrexham AFC's owners attended The Ceremony at The City 's Guildhall on Monday.

The pair, who have made a documentary about The Club , were in December.

Deadpool star Mr Reynolds said at The Event : " I think back to that first moment. We were on Zoom speaking to the Wrexham Supporters' Trust and I don't think I have ever been as nervy as I was in that exact moment. "

That was The Point he began to understand something " truly great" could be achieved.

" I'm so touched I get to be a part of this story, " He Said .

" I know that We Are here so that you guys can thank us for some reason, but I feel like it is The Other way around.

" We want to Thank You for what you have given us. Words are too clumsy to quantify what it means to me. "

Forging connections between people who live on different sides of The World had been " The Greatest honour" of Rob Mcelhenney 's life.

The It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia actor said: " I firmly contend that connection of The People of Philadelphia, The People of Wrexham, I think you can find that in The Middle of the United States , in The Middle of Saskatchewan (in Canada), in Brazil, in China, I believe We Are all the same.

" Very specifically working class people. If you saw in The Show someone who looked like you or sounded like you, it's because they are you. "

After the victory over Notts County Mr McElhenney: " I can't believe there was a time when I thought football was boring. "

In December, council leader Mark Pritchard said: " These two Hollywood Stars have had an incredible impact on both the football club and the community, and have helped catapult Wrexham onto The World stage. "
