Find out who really choreographed the viral ‘Bye Bye’ dance scene in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’! | WATCH

In the latest blockbuster Deadpool & Wolverine, audiences were treated to a memorable dance sequence featuring NSYNC’s hit “Bye Bye Bye,” performed by Ryan Reynolds' character as he takes on Time Variance Authority agents. What many may not realise is that the choreography for this electrifying scene was originally created by American dancer-actor Darrin Henson.

Henson, renowned for his choreographic work in the early 2000s, is celebrated for his role in crafting the unforgettable moves of “Bye Bye Bye.” His expertise is showcased in his classic VHS series, Darrin’s Dance Grooves, which remains accessible on YouTube. It’s no surprise that his dance routines have resurfaced in the latest Deadpool film.

Since its release, Deadpool & Wolverine has captivated audiences worldwide, achieving over 1.29 billion dollars in global box office sales and setting new records. The resurgence of “Bye Bye Bye” on music charts reflects the film’s impact, and social media platforms like instagram are abuzz with fans recreating the iconic dance.

While some might mistakenly attribute the choreography to Nick Pauley, who served as Reynolds’ stand-in, the true credit belongs to Darrin Henson. Henson’s impressive portfolio includes work with pop legends such as NSYNC, Britney Spears, and the Spice Girls. His choreography for “Bye Bye Bye” earned him an MTV Music Award for Best Choreography.

In Deadpool & Wolverine, directed by Shawn Levy, Wade Wilson (Reynolds) teams up with a variant of Logan (Hugh Jackman) in a quest to save his reality. The film pays homage to Marvel’s earlier work with 20th Century Fox, before Disney’s acquisition.
