The Ryan Rodney Reynolds Memorial Park in the heart of Wrexham is set to be a space where the public can 'gather, grow and play' when the Hollywood co-owners of the local football club are finished with it. It's due to be renamed 'probably something Welsh, not Canadian'.
Wrexham owner Ryan Reynolds has been 'gifted' an area of the city for his birthday - with plans in place to transform it into a park in his honour. Reynolds received the special 47th birthday gift in Wrexham city centre from the club's co-owner Rob McElhenney. A video in the style of US sitcom Parks and Recreation was released to coincide with the announcement and featured McElhenney and Hollywood star Chris Pratt, who played Andy Dwyer in the show.
Its story has been the subject of a Disney+ documentary, Welcome to Wrexham.
