Deadpool & Wolverine was refreshingly subversive for a Disney/Marvel project. It did not hold back from poking fun at Disney, Marvel, superhero movies in general, Fox, and anything else that got in its way. This is why it was so much fun. It felt like an antidote to over-serious Hollywood.
Now the original script has been released on the Disney FYC portal. Fans then remembered Ryan Reynolds talking about one joke, and only one joke, that Disney made them remove. So, of course, fans went hunting and found it.
In the sequence where Deadpool learns that Magneto is already dead in the timeline he is in, he breaks the fourth wall and shouts:
“Fuck! What? We can’t even afford one more X-Man? Disney is so cheap. I can barely breathe with all this Mickey Mouse cock in my throat.”
When asked to remove it, director Shawn Levy says Reynolds tried to replace it with an equally offensive line about Pinocchio’s nose and Deadpool’s asshole.
So there you have it. Even when being less uptight than Disney seems to have been for years, they still won’t let you fuck with the mouse!
Deadpool & Wolverine is on Disney+ right now.
