Our X-MEN mini-series continues as we take a look at the sequel to the R-rated mega-hit, 2018’s Deadpool 2.

When an incredibly successful first film gets a sequel greenlit, the last thing you would do is fire the director, right? Not so, says Deadpool 2! Tim Miller was asked to depart Deadpool 2 early on and is replaced by John Wick co-director David Leitch at the behest of Ryan Reynolds and the screenwriters Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick over “creative diffences” that supposedly had nothing to do with Kyle Chandler or the casting of Cable. Can Deadpool 2 stick the landing after killing off Vanessa, the entire point of the first film, in the opening minutes of the sequel? I mean sort of? Basically? It’s complicated.

Joining Nick and Scott to talk about time travel, finding a family, and fridging the love interest is podcaster and Franchisography editor Adam Sheehan (Tales From The Short Box, TMNT Minute).
