Warning: Deadpool & Wolverine spoilers ahead.The ending of Deadpool & Wolverine was tweaked following a note from Blake Lively that directly impacted reshoots.According to the film’s director Shawn Levy, the film’s production cycle only experienced “a day-and-a-half” of reshoots.

However, these reshoots came after Deadpool star Ryan Reynolds‘ wife Blake Lively – who also makes a cameo in the film – gave Levy a note about the film’s ending that “really opened up a new way of thinking about this part of the movie and it’s why we did this reshoot”.During the film’s climax, the titular heroes’ fates are left in question for a good amount of time, though this wasn’t always the case.

According to Levy, the original ending was much for straightforward about their survival.Levy explained to GamesRadar: “It used to be that there was no suspense, that the power room blew up, and our heroes had survived.

And it was Blake Lively who said to us, ‘You know, I’ve been with you this whole movie. I want to sit in the fear that they’re lost.
