Why did Deadpool actor T.J. Miller say he’ll never work with Ryan Reynolds again?
The actor and comedian was speaking on The Adam Carolla Show about his career and explained why he didn’t want to be in another Deadpool film.
T.J. Miller recently made an appearance on a podcast and divulged his relationship with Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds.
“As the character, he was, like, horrifically mean to me. But to me [emphasis on me]. As if I’m Weasel,” Miller explained on The Adam Carolla Show.
“He was like, ‘You know what’s great about you, Weasel? You’re not the star, but you do just enough exposition that it’s funny, and then we can leave and get back to the real movie.’”
“I just kind of listened and thought it was weird, and then I got off stage because they were like, ‘Cut…?,’” he said.
“Would I work with him again? No. I would not work with him again,” he said, “I sorta wish him well because he’s so good at Deadpool, and I think it’s weird that he hates me.”
Miller finished by saying Reynolds supposed actions have not dampened his hopes for the film.
“I don’t wish them any ill will. I think [Reynolds] should make a Deadpool 3 and continue to make movies. I just think he doesn’t like me, and I thought it was weird how he expressed that.”
Who is T. J. Miller?
Readers may be forgiven for forgetting who Miller is. The comedian-turned-actor began featuring in films back with 2008′s Cloverfield before receiving top billing in the dreadful Emoji Movie in 2017. Either side of this flick were the two Deadpool films in 2016 and 2018 respectively.
Miller has been embroiled in a number of serious allegations since 2015. These include an assault of an Uber driver, as yet unresolved sexual assault allegations, transphobic emails, and a fake bomb threat. He managed the escape charges for the final offence due to an assessment which argued prior brain surgery impaired his actions.
