“It literally was us asking and invariably people saying ‘yes.'”

It was never true,” he said.

“Wesleys return as Blade was a very early idea of Ryans,” Shawnexplained.

“We wanted to explore themes of legacy, characters, and their endings.

Lets give them that feeling.’

So, Ryan reached out to Wesley.

Wesley has not played Blade in a long time.

He and Ryan have not been in close touch in a very long time.

But we made clear to Wesley that this was not going for a joke.

This was out of reverence for his legacy as this iconic character.”

“We had scripted a lot of those borderline nonsensical lines.

We wrote them into the screenplay,” Shawn explained.

“But then Channing added a lot of Cajun and French flavor.

When Deadpool kept saying ‘Thats not a word.

Who is your dialect coach … the Minions?’

that was very much all of us on set.

We absolutely loved it.”

“I was really expecting a lot of green screen work,” they said.
