You can see a couple pictures of the Merc with a Mouth and the Merc with the Moves in Ryan Reynolds’ Instagram post below.
While I have no doubt that Ryan Reynolds would have done the dancing and it would have been very cool if he did, the resulting video would have been much different.
The reason the Ashes video works so well is how it’s played straight right up until the very end.
Even if he can now move with the grace of a swan and the skill of the legendary Astaire, something tells me that Ryan Reynolds’ dancing would have changed the tone of the piece.
