Shawn Levy’s "Deadpool and Wolverine" continues to be one of the year’s most successful films, breaking box-office records for R-rated movies and re-establishing the MCU during a time when audiences were losing track of the MCU Multiverse. There was, at the time of release, a lot of celebration regarding the return of Hugh Jackman in the role of Wolverine. But fans also lost their minds at the surprise turns delivered by former Fox and New Line standouts Jennifer Garner, Wesley Snipes, Chris Evans and Dafne Keen, who reprised classic roles as characters left in The Void. Now that Deadpool and Wolverine is on Blu-ray and DVD, with a Disney+ date announced for November 12, we got to speak with Keen about her role in the sequel… and the demands she had for co-star Channing Tatum.
Tatum, of course, played Gambit in "Deadpool and Wolverine," and if you weren’t aware, the actor had been lobbying for that part for years. And he got a lot of attention, post-release, for the Cajun accent he used in the movie. As it turns out, that accent proved a real challenge for Dafne Keen, who had to be serious on set, and couldn’t because Tatum kept cracking her up.
