(Undated) -- Actor Ryan Reynolds is branching out into the liquor business with his purchase of a Portland-based gin company. The "Deadpool" star made a humorous announcement via Twitter yesterday, saying "in the long and in no way disastrous marriage of showbiz and alcohol, so happy to announce I'm the proud owner of a gin company." That gin company is Aviation Gin, which is based out of Portland. The liquor company says Reynolds will play an active role in its day-to-day business.
