“We were breaking the story of the original Deadpool movie in a house that was being paid for by Green Lantern‘s dime,” Reynolds said last year.

Ironically, Reynolds has still never seen a full cut of Green Lantern, but he did spend time working with Reese and Wernick on the first Deadpool movie while filming the DC Comics project in New Orleans. Home Entertainment zinged Reynolds for the mid-credits scene, tweeting a still from Green Lantern and writing, “Sorry we’re going to need the ring back,” a reference to the Power Ring that Green Lanterns wield. It’s hard work,” says Leitch.Īfter Deadpool 2 opened, Warner Bros. “I can’t stress enough how hard it is to make a good movie. When Heat Vision notes that it does not seem the Green Lantern and Wolverine scenes were meant to insult the filmmakers and crew who created those movies, Leitch agrees. Leitch has seen firsthand how hard people work to make a movie, both those that are acclaimed and those that fall short of expectations. We obviously embraced it whole-heartedly as sort of self-referential stuff to make it work to our advantage narratively, to our advantage comedically, or to our advantage to fill in a gap,” says Leitch. Asked how he and Reynolds managed to mock projects they worked on, Leitch says the Deadpool movie franchise and the comic books “allow you to do that in spades.” Leitch actually worked on X-Men Origins: Wolverine as an action coordinator. ‘Forget everything you just saw! Vanessa is alive again, Peter is alive again.’ But at the same time, I think it fits with the Deadpool tone,” says Reese, who wrote the script with Paul Wernick and Reynolds.
“It is a little subversive in that it kind of undercuts the actual movie itself. The mid-credits scenes were shot during postproduction, and the tim- travel idea originated from director David Leitch’s camp. “When Ryan hooked into it, he just thought, ‘Well I have to go change some personal events from my life.’ Meaning Wolverine and Green Lantern,’ ” screenwriter Rhett Reese tells Heat Vision. It’s a moment Reynolds himself pushed for. The Deadpool 2 anti-hero shoots his Origins counterpart, just to clean up the timelines.įinally, Deadpool travels to the moment actor Reynolds decided to star in 2011’s Green Lantern - and shoots him.
The time-traveling version of Deadpool appears just ahead of the final battle between Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) and the Origins version of Deadpool. Then Deadpool travels back to 2009’s X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the critically panned movie in which Reynolds first starred as the Merc With the Mouth. (Rob Delaney), a member of the X-Force who died during that bloody first mission. In the first mid-credits scene, Ryan Reynolds’ Deadpool commandeers Cable’s (Josh Brolin) time-traveling device, and goes back in time to correct past mistakes by saving the lives of his girlfriend, Vanessa (Morena Baccarin), and Peter W. But the Deadpool 2 scenes weren’t about world-building, they were about tearing down past sins of the superhero genre. It was the most surprising tag for a superhero movie since 2008’s Iron Man teased the idea of an Avengers movie. Deadpool 2 took meta to a whole new level with the film’s mid-credits scenes.
