As a seasoned gamer and avid follower of the Hollywood scene, I’ve seen it all – from blockbuster successes to behind-the-scenes scandals. The saga between Ryan Reynolds and T.J. Miller is one that caught my attention, not just for their on-screen chemistry in “Deadpool,” but also for the off-screen drama that unfolded.
This article contains discussions of sexual assault and substance abuse.
Following the release of two “Deadpool” films, it’s clear that Ryan Reynolds and T.J. Miller will not be teaming up again on screen. The question is, what led to their falling out as previous colleagues?
In 2016, T.J. Miller shared screen time with Ryan Reynolds in the movie adaptation of a comic book, playing the character Weasel – a bar owner who is also Wade Wilson’s (Reynolds) friend and emotional pillar during some tough times depicted in the film as Deadpool embarks on various challenging events. Miller returned to his role in “Deadpool 2” in 2018, but he expressed publicly that he wouldn’t be involved in any future sequels, attributing this decision directly to Reynolds.
In a 2022 interview with radio host Adam Carolla, Miller stated he wouldn’t collaborate with Reynolds again due to an unpleasant experience on set. Specifically, during the filming of “Deadpool,” Reynolds was reportedly rude towards him. According to Miller, after asking for another take, Reynolds’ character behaved abrasively toward him, making sarcastic remarks about his character, Weasel. The actor seemed to imply that Weasel’s role was only to provide necessary exposition and then step aside for the main storyline.
Essentially, Miller decided that his collaboration with Reynolds was finished after that instance: “I’m not sure if I’d team up with him again? No, definitely not. Although I wish him luck because he’s fantastic as Deadpool, and it feels strange that he dislikes me.”
According to T.J. Miller, Ryan Reynolds apologized to him about the incident
Not long after his interview with Adam Carolla, T.J. Miller subsequently discussed matters in a podcast with Jim Norton and Sam Roberts on SiriusXM. During this conversation, he addressed a significant point – that Ryan Reynolds indeed contacted Miller, and as a result, the two were able to reconcile their differences.
Miller shared that it was quite thoughtful when the individual mentioned they had heard about his upset on a show. However, Miller admitted he wasn’t actually upset, and they quickly resolved the matter. Despite this, Miller emphasized the person is hilarious, as always, and is excellent in movies. Unfortunately, none of the complimentary remarks made it into the final broadcast.
The main problem for Miller at the end of the day was that he considered his initial comments as not particularly negative, just an amusing anecdote from the set he wanted to share. However, he regretted that they were misunderstood. He clarified this to the hosts, stating that there was no real issue between them afterwards. Unfortunately, this wasn’t the end of Miller’s troubles – after “Deadpool 2,” he faced a wave of harsh accusations regarding sexual misconduct and inappropriate behavior.
T.J. Miller’s career has been marred by controversy since 2016
Despite T.J. Miller’s perspective on the “Deadpool” situation, it’s clear that his removal from the franchise was likely inevitable following a series of disturbing allegations and his 2016 arrest. Subsequently, Miller reached a settlement with the Uber driver he is accused of assaulting in 2016, and his reputation suffered another blow in 2017.
Last year, a woman accused me of a horrific act of violent sexual assault, details that are truly disturbing. Consequently, I was ousted from the “How to Train Your Dragon” series where I lent my voice to Tuffnut. In 2019, I found myself in handcuffs again for making a false bomb threat to an Amtrak train. Before any of this unfolded, I was let go from the HBO comedy “Silicon Valley,” and its creator, Mike Judge, later disclosed that I frequently showed up to work under the influence.
Currently, Miller’s professional life seems rather quiet, and it’s not difficult to understand why this might be the case… Moreover, this situation underscores the likelihood that he would not have been included in the project for “Deadpool & Wolverine.”
