From the moment it was announced, Deadpool & Wolverine became one of the most anticipated upcoming Marvel movies , and was quickly the subject of a variety of rumors. There was so much talk about potential Deadpool 3 cameos that it was impossible to tell what was real and what wasn’t, and it seems there was very nearly a plan to handle that confusion surrounding the release of the movie. And the ultimate result would've been a wild bit, which Ryan Reynolds "still wishes" was in the movie.
Considering how massive a production like this is, keeping everything under wraps would be a tough task. Of course, not all movies have the widely creative mind of Ryan Reynolds fueling them. The actor recently appeared on Hot Ones and explained that he had a plan to avoid spoiling Deadpool & Wolverine that was so secret that even co-star Hugh Jackman wasn’t aware of it.
The idea was to produce a fake movie that was so intentionally bad that few would go see it. And the rest of Reynolds' proposed plan would've involved a massive surprise: The original idea with this movie to shoot a fake movie called Alpha Cop that was intentionally bad. I even had one of the posters made — it was about two guys who are sharing one brain and together they make the ultimate cop.
And the poster says, ‘Alpha Cop: Two Cops, One Brain. All Balls. On the one hand, one can see that not even telling anybody that you were actually releasing Deadpool & Wolverine would have likely prevented people from digging .
