Reynolds is a kind man, really, and wants to "help everyone fall asleep" because, well, everyone deserves a good night's sleep, especially if Deadpool reads them a bedtime story.

This is why he just announced a new show, as he captioned the teaser trailer, replete with baa-ing sheep, "I can’t wait for you to watch Bedtime Stories, premiering June 20th on @MaximumEffort Channel on @fubotv."

The teaser says it all, "from an anxious mind, comes a restful show."

The trailer starts with dreamy piano music that instantly tends to calm us down as Reynold begins to talk in his near "angelic voice", or so say fans, asking everyone, "You know the best part about stories?"

He then continues to talk, weaving a beautiful web with his voice, answering his question, "You remember them. They stay with you."

Reynolds then walks in, wearing tan and white PJs, with "zZz" embroidered on the pockets, as the narration continues, "And I wanna tell you a bedtime story."

The "Deadpool" star then walks and sits on a chair with a book in his hand, and for some reason, there are sheep tucked in the beds next to him.

Then comes the twist in the story, as Reynolds narrates, "Now, rest your tired bones... And remember... Whatever you do..."

"Don't...

Fall...

Asleep."

Say what now?

First up, fans have a quick question to ask Reynolds, "Did you do this so you could go to work in your pajamas?"

Others felt a little cheated, "I dunno why…but I was just waiting for him to slip into Deadpool character for the end of it."

Meanwhile, some fans wondered about the warning at the end of the video although some felt this was definitely "Deadpool 3" outtakes!

"Why does this feel vaguely threatening?"

"This has to be misleading, definitely will have a dark spin lol."

"I want to put that Will Ferrell "I don’t believe you" gif because I don’t know if this is real, a jokey thing, or a horror."

"DON'T fall asleep??? ? This has to have some sort of scary vibes."

Meanwhile, Ryan Reynolds has more tricks up his sleeve, as he wants everyone to "sleep together!"

Wonder what Blake Lively has to say!

A Shout Out To His Fourth Child, After Father's Day Vasectomy?

The sweetest bit about Ryan Reynolds' new show is that he apparently thought of it on the same day his fourth daughter was born, as his caption reads, "The idea for a show made to help everyone fall asleep was born the same day as my fourth child. I can’t wait for you to watch Bedtime Stories..."

Frankly, the fact that he could "think" on the day of the birth of his fourth child is a marvel to us. The 46-year-old "Adam's Project" star is married to Blake Lively and they have four children: James, eight, Inez, six, and Betty, three, as well as baby Reynolds. For now, there is no news of her name or birthdate, although he admitted that baby Reynolds is a girl too!

He is also too tired to think of a name, as he joked, "We actually called our daughter 'Cocaine Bear'. We picked the name out before the film was released so we’re involved in a litigation battle now."

With four children, it seems Ryan Reynolds might soon be Chelsea Handler's next target. Reason enough why he's pushing for a Vasectomy, using Eric and Jessie James Decker as his stooges!
