Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds advanced to contenders Sheffield United in a 3-3 draw in Sunday's FA Cup fourth round
and his Wrexham side admitted a crushing defeat in injury time that looked painful. Reynolds and his cast partner Rob McHenney took over the National League in 2020.
The Americans frantically celebrated the Welsh club's three goals in the stands, but they needed to win a rematch to reach the last 16 of the FA Cup for the first time since 1997.
Ollie McBurney led the Blades after 61 seconds
and Wrexham got off to a worse start.
Sheffield United look set to return to the Premier League next season, but a scaffle inside the racecourse scared them.
The home side scored twice in 11 minutes at the start of the second half, with James Jones and Thomas O'Connor scoring from set-pieces to turn the tie around. Orinorwood looked like he had ended Wrexham's dream and equalized with a poised finish.
But Daniel Jebison was sent off with a red card for a no-ball incident and the home team had 20 minutes to look for the winner with an extra player.
When top scorer Paul Mullin scored with a header in the 86th minute, they looked like they were going to finish Hollywood.
However, in the 95th minute, John Egan forced the game with a corner kick and the final plot took a twist.
