Deadpooland Wolverine Nearly Shocked Viewers with an Unanticipated Lip-Lock Incident
If the endless stream of entertaining GIFs on social media is any indicator, it seems that Marvel fans are making the most of the home video release of the much-anticipated flick, Deadpool & Wolverine. Mighty Marvel enthusiasts are sharing reminders of the film's laughing-till-you-cry entertainment value, in case there are still doubters out there, reluctant to grab a copy of the movie from their local distributor.
The Studios behind the screen call this movie "Cash in of the Christ" in the latest Honest Trailers. But not to be outdone, Marvel has enticed potential buyers with sneak peeks at one of the many deleted scenes the R-rated MCU film features. The standout scene is a heartfelt kiss that was left on the editing room floor.
Before you get carried away, let me clarify that, though the fight scene between Deadpool and Wolverine in a Honda Odyssey was steamy hot, the kiss isn't between them. Instead, it's between Deadpool's actual best friend, Peter, and none other than B-15 from Loki.
In the clip that Hollywood Reporter shared on Twitter, we witness B-15 and Peter walking down a hallway. Peter expresses gratitude to her for her assistance with the "Laura thing," presumably a nod to the team's successful rescue of X-23 and her arrival in Wade's reality.
But B-15 brushes off Peter's polite words and saucily returns his gaze - a look reminiscent of Simba and Nala's reunion in The Lion King. Next comes a passionate kiss. The music swells, and B-15 winks and waves goodbye before disappearing through a portal. The scene ends with Peter celebrating his accomplishment with Kidpool and Headpool, who had been loitering in his apartment the whole time. The intimacy between the characters was enough to suggest a romantic plotline culminating in a kiss in the official film.
If this clip has sparked your interest in buying Marvel's latest star-studded adventure, mark your calendars for the Blu-ray release on October 22. It's also available digitally right now.
