The short of it is Disney kept toning it down and cut cameos and jokes.
Reynolds was so beat down by it that he didn’t do his typical end of filming shoot speech/thank you to the crew and didn’t do much promotion for the film. The crew was apparently also pretty beat down by Disney’s involvement. There were some mentions of Reynolds not being allowed as much creative control against Disney’s meddling in the editing booth.
So DP4 might be dead or they may recast and ruin it with people who aren’t passionate about the film.
Deadpool 4 might be dead because Disney pissed of Reynolds and the crew with D&W.
I wish Maximum Effort could have bought the rights before DP1, we would have fewer movies but the passion for the projects would have been maintained.
What happened?
