Ryan Reynolds used to work for a Peruvian drug dealer.
The 'Adventureland' actor became convinced his foul-tempered boss was a crime lord when he worked at a restaurant in Canada.
He said: "I worked at a restaurant in Vancouver. I shouldn't name it. It was a restaurant in Kitsilano. I was a busboy there, but no one ever really ate there and I think that I was actually working for a Peruvian drug lord or I thought I was. He was this abusive boss that had a fuse that was absolutely minimal at best.
"I would work there all day and then at night I would work at a grocery store on the graveyard shift, throwing fresh fruit at my co-workers."
Ryan also admits his 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' co-star Hugh Jackman teased him on set after being crowned People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive in 2008.
The 32-year-old star - who came third in the 2007 list - added to moviesonline.ca: "It was brought up often. I think Hugh, much like every other one of these sexiest people of the year which just seems like the most absurd crown on earth, most people sort of take it with a grain of salt or a crate of valium. It's pretty silly stuff.
"He gave me guff about it. I'm not gay, but I'm thinking about it."
