As you know, Rob McElhenney (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) shot a scene for Deadpool & Wolverine, but his scene was ultimately cut from the film. McElhenny and Ryan Reynolds are really good friends and business partners as they own a football club together, so it was surprising to learn that his scene had been cut, but whatever they shot just didn’t end up working for the film. Reynolds recently took to Instagram to honor his friend and explain why the scene didn’t make it into the film. He shared: “A word on my ‘darling’ friend, @robmcelhenney. Rob very kindly did a cameo in #DeadpoolAndWolverine which will hopefully live on in the digital extras.“While editing a movie, they say you ‘sometimes have to kill your darlings.’ And with a heavy heart (and through great outside intervention) I had to kill a darling with this cameo…“The sequence wasn’t working the way we’d originally constructed it. Rob was the only reason it stayed in the cut for as long as it did, because even under a TVA mask and helmet, you can feel him smoldering with a raw and almost infinite reservoir of talent, writerly wit and ‘I create hit tv shows’ swagger. Don’t even get me started on Wrexham. I wouldn’t know a love like @wrexham_afc if it weren’t for Rob McElhenney.“Anyway, I loved making this movie but it wasn’t without stress. There was a lot of expectation — and I’m pretty sure the most well written villain in cinema history is ‘Expectation’. And when you do stressful stuff, it feels good when friends are nearby. “And even though I’m mortified he flew all the way to London for a cameo that wasn’t meant to be, I’m grateful my friend was there with me on that set. When I see Rob, my heart-rate slows and my nervous system stops yelling at me. He shows up for people. And he showed up for me.*Even as he begged for his life before Alioth snatched his unsuspecting body into the air, swallowing him whole, eventually digesting and converting him into Alioth-poo.“RIP TVA Soldier. ❤️🙏💛“p.s. Rob would make an awesome Hydra Bob. @marvelstudios”It’s a shame that the scene had to be cut, but filmmakers gotta do what they gotta do to make their movie work the way they want it to.
