With Deadpool 2 now playing in theaters around the world, I recently landed an interview with director David Leitch to talk about one of the year’s most anticipated films. During the fun conversation, he talked about what he wants to include on the Blu-ray, how it could have up to 20 minutes of deleted scenes, how they decided on Cable’s backstory, the moment he realized people would love Peter, how the film changed during the test-screening process, how they decided on which X-Force characters to use in the sequel, and a lot more.
As most of you know, Deadpool 2 follows Deadpool as he assembles a super-powered team to protect a kid (Julian Dennison) from Cable, a killer from the future. The film also stars Zazie Beetz, Morena Baccarin, T.J. Miller, Brianna Hildebrand, Jack Kesy, and a few surprise guests.
Check out what David Leitch had to say in the player above and below is exactly what we talked about followed by some links to other Deadpool 2 coverage.
