I Rewatched Deadpool And Wolverine On Disney+, And Discovered One Dark Place Ryan Reynolds Wasn’t Willing To Go For A Joke

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of immersion into the digital realm, I can confidently say that Ryan Reynolds‘ Deadpool and Wolverine movie is a testament to the power of humor and creativity. The fourth wall-breaking antics, the self-deprecating jokes, and the pop culture references have made this series one of my favorites in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.


In Shawn Levy’s Deadpool and Wolverine, it seems every subject is fair game as a setup for humor. Ryan Reynolds has utilized the Deadpool series to mock his career, skills, marriage to Blake Lively (there’s an amusing reference to Gossip Girl in the opening scene of Deadpool and Wolverine), among other things. I find Reynolds’ boldness in comedy within the Deadpool films commendable, as well as his willingness to leverage the R-rating that enables his team to truly push creative boundaries. Few upcoming Marvel movies will feature humor quite like this one.

At the same time, I also applaud Reynolds for knowing when not to step over the line.

Just finished streaming the fresh Marvel flick, “Deadpool vs Wolverine,” on Disney+. It was fantastic revisiting some of my favorite scenes with a new perspective. The cameos were still hilarious, and the montage of multiverse Wolverines, influenced by comics, never fails to impress. However, it wasn’t until the tracking shot sequence through the Deadpool Corps towards the film’s end that I noticed Ryan Reynolds has his limits when it comes to humor. And I respect that.

It’s highly likely that by now, you’re aware that Blake Lively, Reynolds’ wife, portrayed Lady Deadpool in this particular scene (a secret so widely known it could pass for MCU history’s open book). What might not be common knowledge is that their daughter, Inez, stepped into the role of Kidpool within the film. You remember, the one who delivers lines to Deadpool such as…

Hey! When I want your opinion, I’ll take Wolverine’s dick out of your mouth.

Incredible! Shortly following this, the Deadpool Squad transforms Reynolds into Swiss cheese and annihilates his head. Consequently, Deadpool Prime and Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) embark on a prolonged, gory pursuit that results in numerous Deadpool variations being hacked, dismembered, shot, impaled, and mutilated in various ways.

In the Deadpool Corps battle scene, you won’t find Kidpool participating. Take another look at it if you haven’t already. You’ll notice that Kidpool is part of the group before and after the fight. As for Babypool, she doesn’t engage in combat. Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively decided that showing their daughter amidst all that fighting might be too intense… despite the fact that the Deadpools don’t actually die in a permanent sense, as they quickly regenerate instead.

Well, let me tell you something, I’m not surprised at all. There are some boundaries that shouldn’t be pushed, even for characters like those in Marvel who have humorously discussed the idea of eliminating baby Hitler.

Maximum effort!

Hold off on inquiring about a potential Deadpool 4 from Ryan Reynolds at this point. He’s currently recuperating after the intense emotional and physical strain of producing the latest film. However, look forward to the appearance of both Deadpool and Wolverine on screen when Joe and Anthony Russo return to direct the upcoming Avengers movies, specifically Doomsday (starring Robert Downey Jr.) and Secret Wars. Stay tuned for all updates on these projects.
