A scrapped Deadpool & Wolverine scene almost had Deadpool face all the MCU’s Avengers. Deadpool & Wolverine is crammed with cameos, dishing out moments of fan service from start to finish as Marvel actors from erstwhile franchises made appearances throughout. Aside from stock footage, the Avengers were ultimately not among them – but that wasn’t always going to be the case.

In an interview with IndieWire, Deadpool & Wolverine writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick divulged that the scene showing Deadpool being rejected for the Avengers was originally conceived to have him “dressing down” each of the Avengers, who would have all been present. The full quote can be read below:

Wernick: We haven’t told anybody this, but there was a version of that scene very, very early on that wasn’t written, but was conceived, that had all the Avengers in the room. And Wade was rejected and then he dressed all the Avengers down in a way only Deadpool could do.

Reese: That’s a little bit of a scoop, but he was going to get mad and basically attack each one of them in a vicious kind of way.
