Ryan Reynolds was 'mortified' to cut Rob McElhenney's cameo from "Deadpool & Wolverine."

Ryan Reynolds was “mortified” to cut Rob McElhenney ‘s cameo from “Deadpool & Wolverine” given that his friend and Wrexham football club co-owner flew all the way to London to make it happen. “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. While McElhenney did not make it into “Deadpool & Wolverine,” plenty of other surprise cameos did such as Channing Tatum as Gambit, Wesley Snipes as Blade, Jennifer Garner as Elektra and Chris Evans as Johnny Storm.
