“Back to work on #RedNotice. The Covid Test is quick and easy. The doctor places the swab up your nose, just deep enough to tickle your childhood memories and then it’s over,” Reynolds captioned a slideshow of three photos he posted to his Instagram that show him getting his nose swabbed on Saturday. “No matter what you say to him, he won’t buy you dinner first.”
Reynolds’ wife, Blake Lively, was credited with capturing the 43-year-old actor’s coronavirus test.
Earlier in the week, Gadot posted her coronavirus test, which may have inspired Reynolds to share his experience.

Representatives for Johnson did not immediately respond to FOX Business for comment.

On Sept. 2, Johnson posted a video to Instagram telling his followers that he and his wife and two young daughters contracted the potentially deadly respiratory virus.
“This has been one of the most challenging and difficult things we have ever had to endure as a family,” Johnson said in his Instagram video at the time, which was around two and a half to three weeks after he and his family fought the illness.
“We’re on the other end of it, we’re on the other side. We’re no longer contagious, and we are — thank God — we are healthy,” Johnson added.
