Dance and comedy are two very distinct disciplines.
Ryan Reynolds demonstrated this on Wednesday (November 23rd) in a rather touching Instagram post, in which he shares a glimpse of his rehearsals with Will Ferrell for their Christmas musical,
Spirited

The two leading actors have never before starred in a musical.
Reynolds revealed that learning to dance was not easy.
In this video, we can see the two actors, accompanied by two other dancers, performing a choreography for a scene from the film.
Very diligent but just as clumsy, the two stars show themselves to be quite stiff in their postures and sometimes get confused in their steps, unlike the other two dancers who we imagine to be professionals.
The 46-year-old actor captioned his post with the message: “You have to be willing to be bad at something if you want to be…a little less bad?
Here we are Will and I proving that!
We are so touched by all the love for #Spirited on @appletvplus”.
Blake Lively and Charles Dickens
Fans flocked to the comments section to praise the apprentice dancer for his moves.
His wife Blake Lively, rather exhilarated by her husband's footwork, also commented: "Can you get pregnant when you're already pregnant?".
The 35-year-old actress is indeed currently pregnant with their fourth child.
She and Ryan Reynolds, married since 2012, are already parents of three little girls: James, 7 years old, Inez, 5 years old and Betty, 3 years old.
In this Apple TV + film available since November 18, Reynolds plays the character of Clint, a ruthless businessman, who finds himself under the yoke of a Christmas ghost (Ferrell) on the night of December 24.
It is the modern and comic adaptation of
A Christmas Carol
, the famous short story by Charles Dickens.
