Did Ryan Reynolds do that impressive dance?

While the dance routine in the movie is very similar to Deadpool's, it wasn't performed by Ryan Reynolds, who recently revealed who was behind the mask at the time, praised their talent, and thanked them for their “services” (via With Ashley & Co.).

“Well, thank you. I’ll admit it… A lot of people don’t know that I can sing and move really well, but that’s actually the first lie I’m going to tell you today. A guy named Nick Pauly is the guy who choreographed the dances, and I mean he does a lot of the moves that NSYNC originally created. If it looks like the guy dancing doesn’t have arthritis, that’s him. There are moments where, you know, there’s a little bit of popping and locking, except for the popping, really popping, like it’s breaking. And the lock won’t open. So yeah, I’ll do anything I can to free myself. But yeah, I’ll rely on Nick Pauly’s talent. I’ll hang my hat on his talent there and thank him for his contribution and his service.”
