Ryan Reynolds has reflected on the making of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Deadpool and Wolverine, revealing the advice from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige that "haunted" him during the writing process on the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Phase 5 movie.

"He said something t🍎hat sounds very pedantic and is probably not the thing to say out loud, but actually, weirdly, served as a creative engine," Reynolds told an audience at the Fast Company Innovation Festival (H/T ). "He was like, 'Make every scওene great.' And I was like, 'Thanks, Kev. Sounds good.'"

Those four words of advice, however, sprung back up while Reynolds was deep in the creative trenches on the MCU's first R-Rated movie, with the Deadpool actor admittin💛g it "haunted him." He added, "'Make it great’ – that’s hard.”

Another st🎉rugg🍃le involved a back-and-forth on one unknown moment in Deadpool and Wolverine that ended up being left on the cutting room floor. 

As Reynolds explain🤪s, "There was only one line in the entire film that they asked me to take out… And 🏅they were right!"

Reynolds added, "As soon as somebody says something, like, ‘Ryan, Bob Iger here. Would love it if you’d take that one line out. It’s really going to make our life hard over here.’ As soon as they say that, there♐’s just something in my brain that goes, ‘Must keep line! Precious!’"

Of course, all's well that ends well. Deadpool and Wolverine ended up grossing over $1.3 billion at the box office. Reynolds even got a win of sorts with the line that was taken out, with it eventually being swapped for a playful mention of an iconic Disney character.

"As soon as the fog of war lifts and you have a second thought, it’s like, ‘Of course I can take that out. Can I say something about Pinocchio instead? And the answer is꧒ yes," Reynolds recalled.
