Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman reflect on the paths that led them to Deadpool & Wolverine.
Actors and close friends Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman have learnt a lot about being the stewards of major pop-culture characters, an education that led them to Deadpool & Wolverine.
And while the merger of Disney and Fox allowed Reynolds to set the third Deadpool movie starring his R-rated mercenary in the previously off-limits Marvel Cinematic Universe , he struggled to come up with a story that could capitalise on that opportunity. “It was just hard to find the thing that felt right,” the Canadian actor said.
“I was an actor who was semi-well-known,” said Reynolds, who added jokingly, “I don’t know how you would phrase that without sounding like a dink. But I was 37 when Deadpool had its pop-culture phenomenon moment, and I’m really grateful I was because I knew exactly how to enjoy it.” He goes, “Hang on, you’re Wolverine in live action?” And then I was doing photos, autographs, and every bit of paperwork just got stamped.
My first day, I walked off the set and Hugh said, “How do you feel?” And I muttered, “Ah, I wish I could go back to that scene we shot earlier in the day because now I sort of see it.” Five minutes later, everyone is being asked to come out of their trailers, lights are being flipped back on, wardrobe is being zipped back up.
