Dolly Parton has a few words about Wales.
Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenny have welcomed “international treasure” (their words and ours) to Wrexham with a new trailer for Welcome to Wrexham, their FX docuseries about the Wrexham football club in Wales. Wrexham has become a global favorite since Reynolds and McElhenny bought a controlling stake in the club in late 2020, just as professional sports were beginning the road back to normalcy after closing down in the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic. The gimmick of the ad is that Parton recently did an ancestry check and discovered that she might have some Welsh ancestors — and that was enough to sell the bit for Mac and…that other guy.
Parton starts the video as though it’s not a Welcome to Wrexham video, but something of her own, before opening a letter from the “Welsh Board of Tourism” and immediately becoming suspicious that she’s been scammed. Enter Reynolds and McElhenny.
Welcome to Wrexham fans are well-acquainted with the club’s exploits from the seasons fo the documentary series. Last year, it played out like a sports movie with Wrexham AFC managing to completely the storybook promotion. CBS Sports Golazo! caught up with Ben Foster after the amazing conclusion to their season. The goalkeeper had a monster save in a big spot against Notts County. He told the show that Reynolds and McElhenney had promised the lads something special if they came through for the club. Foster said, “They promised us a big day out. They promised us a monster one. If we get promoted, they promised us somewhere with a lot of fashion life.”
