There was a rumor going around earlier this week that test audiences hated the Deadpool sequel, but thankfully, all those rumors turned out false, and a lot of people actually liked the film. With reshoots currently ongoing, news has it that we'll be getting more of Cable and Domino in the movie.
Steve Weintraub of Collider went on to explain the nature of the Deadpool reshoots:
"Both crowds in these screenings said they love Josh Brolin as Cable, they love Domino, but that they would like to see more of both characters in the movie. This is obviously not talking about other things that we're not allowed to talk about… The two main things were Cable, Domino, everyone loved both characters, they wanted to see more. So when everyone in an audience gives notes and says ‘we want more Domino, we want more Cable,' the smart play for the studio is, especially in the competitive summer is, ‘okay, how can we do that? how can we add these characters?' So what happened was in February or whenever it was, they did additional photography, where, guess what, they added Cable, or more Cable and they added more Domino. And so that's the main thing about the additional photography. There was no trainwreck."
When rumors of the Deadpool film bombing on test audiences came out, they were also accompanied with the news that the movie will be undergoing expensive reshoots. Fans can breathe a sigh of relief that this movie is doing fine. Hopefully these additions of Cable and Domino won't get in the way of the final product.
With Deadpool 2 coming out in the middle of May, it undoubtedly has some heavy competition, what with the release of Avengers: Infinity War late April as well as Solo: A Star Wars Story later in the month. A lot of people are confident with the film, however, and are ready to see the Merc with the Mouth back on the big screen.
Catch Deadpool 2 when it hits theaters May 18.
