Ryan Reynolds partners with fellow Vancouver celebrity Seth Rogen in a sarcastic holiday campaign for a good cause.

Two Vancouver celebrities have teamed up for a festive cause. 

Ryan Reynolds debuted this year's holiday campaign to help raise money for The Hospital for Sick Children's SickKids Foundation wearing a talking ugly sweater. 

The sweater, which is the same one Reynolds wore when he was infamously pranked by Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal at a one-person ugly Christmas sweater party, is voiced by fellow Vancouverite Seth Rogen. 

"As a sweater and fellow Canadian," starts Rogen, taking over the spotlight, "I've grown a little tired of Ryan's self-deprecating, deadpan jokes."

The campaign also featured Toronto Maple Leafs hockey player Auston Matthews, but only for a split second before Rogen cut the special message short. "No thank you, Auston! Instead, revel in the wonder of a talking sweater," he says. 

This is the fourth year in a row that the Vancouverite actor has been raising money for the hospital.
