It's finally sunny in Wrexham: Hollywood stars revive a Welsh soccer town
In 2021, Hollywood A-Listers Ryan Reynolds (the Marvel superhero character “Deadpool”) and “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” star and creator Rob McElhenney (who legally changed his name last year to Rob Mac) went all-in on a very different kind of franchise, when they bought a failing football club in the northern Welsh city of Wrexham. Surprise and skepticism gave way to success, as Wrexham AFC went from losers to winners, and the club’s value rocketed to nearly half a billion dollars. Ramy Inocencio reports on how reviving a nearly-forgotten soccer team has resurrected the pride of a beleaguered city – and inspired underdogs around the world.
