Somehow These Deadpool Deleted Scenes Were Too Gnarly For The Movies

In the same interview, actor Ed Skrein, who plays the film's villain, Ajax, admitted that the martial arts during his final fight with Deadpool was a bit over the top. The actor thought the whole point of a "Deadpool" movie was to be violent, but the filmmakers chose to cut it down a bit. Skrein said:

"I do the suplex and all that, I went in and started breaking it and they put out a lot of beats because it was just awful. Literally breaking my wrists, shoulders, jaws, and it was pretty hardcore. It made me laugh that they chose not to put that on because they thought it was too far. And I thought 'How can we go too away in a movie like 'Deadpool?'"

An IGN article also revealed a self-assassination montage in "Deadpool 2" that was likely cut for tasteful reasons. When Deadpool experiences a personal tragedy, he attempts suicide multiple times, only to be resurrected each time. The suicide montage was left out.

But not all of the deleted scenes were dark. Indeed, one of the deleted scenes from "Deadpool 2" would have made the film less brutal. At the end of the film, Deadpool gets his hands on a time machine and travels to Austria in 1889 where baby Adolf Hitler has just been born. Deadpool stands over baby Adolf's crib, finding the courage to kill him. The film's final plan involves our hero choking Hitler to death.

In an alternate cut, Deadpool pulls baby Hitler out of the crib...and posits that perhaps Adolf Hitler could be cared for and treated well and taught tolerance. It's a much more compassionate ending than the one we got.
