It’s no secret that David Leitch and his writing team trimmed a lot of material from Deadpool 2 – hell, word is Ryan Reynolds was tinkering with the sequel’s punchlines right up until the 11th hour – and sure enough, the director has now confirmed that Fox’s inevitable Blu-ray release will feature close to 20 minutes’ worth of deleted scenes.
Chatting to Collider, Leitch spoke candidly about Deadpool 2‘s handling of Nathan Summers (Aka Cable), the surplus of X-Force characters, and the amount of additional footage that was sentenced to the floor of the editing room.
We’re already learned that David Leitch and Fox plan to unleash the extended cut at some point in the future, but here, the former confirms just how much material we can expect.
This is just ballpark…but I would say around 20 minutes [of additional material].
But will 20th Century Fox allow Leitch and his team to release all 20 minutes?...
