This 6-minute video features Ryan Reynolds doing his best Arnold Schwarzenegger impression, Deadpool referencing Eddie Murphy’s 1986 film The Golden Child, Weasel unleashing some brutal insults, and a look at scenes from the Wade Wilson-Vanessa sex montage that ended up the cutting room floor.
In the film, trailers and TV spots, when seeing Wade Wilson’s scarred face for the first time, Weasel came up with inventive and mean ways of describing his friend’s hideous appearance — such as: “You look like Freddy Krueger face-f–ked a topographical map of Utah” and “You look like an avocado had sex with an older, more disgusting avocado.”
When promoting the film, director Tim Miller revealed that Miller and Reynolds improvised a lot more material for that particular scene. “That bar scene was particularly mean and offensive to a lot of people because T.J. and Ryan got together and wrote a version of the scene that we just said, ‘Oh my God, this is too far,’” he explained. “I mean there were so many people offended it would have really been – we couldn’t do it. It was just mean and so I said, ‘No. We don’t have to do that.’”
Thanks to the video above, we now know which insults didn’t make the cut. For a few examples, Weasel tells Wade his face looks like: “some sort of crystal you would see at two-bit psychic,” “someone turned your face inside-out and just left it like that, but then you got in a house fire,” and “a trashcan full of sh-t was placed on your shoulders and then you were in a train fire.”
