Ryan Reynolds-backed Mint Mobile to be acquired by T-Mobile

The Ryan Reynolds-backed Mint Mobile will be bought by T-Mobile, the company announced Wednesday. The acquisition is part of the cellphone carrier's plan to buy Ka'ena Corporation, which includes Ultra Mobile and Plum, for up to $1.35 billion.

The "Deadpool" star appeared in a video posted to social media with T-Mobile CEO Mike Sievert, who welcomed Reynolds to the T-Mobile family — and touted Mint's commitment to low prices.

In true Reynolds fashion, he had a sarcastic, but humorous, reply.
