Ryan Reynolds has always hated his first appearance as Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. And while he got plenty of jabs at it in the first Deadpool movie, it wasn’t until Deadpool 2 that Reynolds was able to finally terminate the mistakes of that movie. Literally.
During one of Deadpool 2’s end credits scenes, Deadpool disrupts the finale of X-Men Origins: Wolverine to kill that movie’s bastardized version of Wade Wilson himself.
Deadpool 2 director David Leitch recently sat down with IGN to explain how that end credits scene came about — and who deserves full credit for it.

So…
…
…Fitz totally died!
What an emotional and pure moment – on an episode filled to the brim with potently sad scenes. The choice to have Fitz’s final goodbye be with Mack and not Jemma was an interesting choice, and maybe not one I wholly agree with, but it was still nice to see Mack shed some tears for a guy he’d clashed with a lot this season. Something big had to happen here and since we didn’t get to see Coulson die, it’s only implied, something had to give. And it was Fitz, who perished in a pile of collapsed building rubble.
