Admire your sisters, admire yourself...and maybe admire Ryan Reynolds too? Amber Tamblyn has granted Blake Lively's husband's wish to be part of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.
"Ryan has always wanted to be the honorary 5th sister and today we shall let him," Tamblyn, 40, shared via her Instagram Story on Monday, December 18, Reynolds' post about the recent Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants reunion. Tamblyn, Lively, 36, and Alexis Bledel joined America Ferrera at a Barbie screening and Q&A hosted by SAG-AFTRA on Friday, December 15, in New York City.
Reynolds shared on his Instagram Story: "Sisterhood powers activate. One of the most beautiful performances this year: @americaferrera in @barbiethemovie."
39-year-old Ferrera responded to Reynolds' post with, " @vancityreynolds (But you still can’t borrow the pants, sorry.)"
Tamblyn, Ferrera, Lively, and Bledel, all 42 years old, have remained close since co-starring in the 2005 film The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, which is based on a book series by Ann Brashares. The movie follows a group of friends as they share a pair of jeans that mysteriously fits them all while spending a summer apart, and it also spawned a 2008 sequel.
The interaction between Reynolds and his wife's co-stars began when Lively posted several Instagram photos from their reunion in New York City, also praising Ferrera's performance in Barbie. "I was so happy to celebrate my denim sister @americaferrera. She's the heart and soul of @barbiethemovie because she's the heart and soul of everything she's a part of," Lively wrote. "I've known [America] for 20 years. Since I was 16. I've watched her live, grow, soar, fall, make, break, push, fight, win, create, forge, disrupt, way make, lead, lead, lead."
Actress Ferrera portrays Gloria in the Greta Gerwig-directed film, guiding Margot Robbie's Barbie through the complexities of modern womanhood. Lively praised Ferrera's performance, stating, "That speech she gives as Gloria felt as close to real as anything I’ve ever seen on screen. Because that’s who she is. She’s that spectacular, passionate, inspiring and full of heart in her own life."
She continued by saying, "I can't wait to see her winning awards in her living room. No one deserves it more for a lifetime of amazing work. It's truly an honor for me to witness her showing so many women not just what's possible, but how it's done. I love you, sister. Always. Pants = Love. Love your sisters. Love yourself."
Ferrera expressed her gratitude for Lively's kind words in the comments of the post, writing, "When your girl gives good hype. I love you forever, sis."
