Ocon has already made contact with the Hollywood star and is planning to visit him on the set of the next Deadpool 3 film in London.
Reynolds and his colleagues Rob McElhenney and Michael B. Jordan are part of a consortium of three US-based entities that have combined to acquire a 24% stake of the Alpine team.
"I think it's fantastic," said Ocon when asked by Autosport about the team’s new Hollywood connections. “I was extremely lucky to be able to chat on Tuesday with Ryan. So we exchanged a couple of WhatsApp [messages] together.
“I was in the simulator. And I usually take my phone just to take notes from all the runs and to have that on the record, but that time I allowed myself to send a little picture to Ryan saying, ‘I'm live from the simulator. This is the view.’ And he liked that.
"I said welcome to the team to him and straight away he said, ‘Hi Esteban I'm very much forward to learn from you and to meet you.’
"He sent me his phone number, his email address and we then texted on WhatsApp, so really good."
Expanding on their initial contact, the Frenchman said: "He told me I was invited on the set in London for the Deadpool movie. So I'm definitely going to be going!
"He also said that he was very much looking forward to learn from our world, see how things work, and just to have a racing chat all together. I'm a massive comics and Marvel fan in general, and massive Deadpool fan, obviously.
"He's just someone that is very inspiring in what he does. Outside his actor world I think he's an extremely talented businessman as well.
"I'm looking forward very much to being able to meet him and have a chat with him properly."
