Deadpool 2: Every Character Ranked Worst To Best

It's something of a shame that Fox decided to leave TJ Miller in Deadpool 2, despite the allegations of sexual misconduct levelled against him, because it's impossible to separate his part in the film from the real world events.

Deadpool 2's Weasel is very much the same creature as he was in the first movie: he's profane, unfiltered and gets some of (what you'd imagine the writers considered) the most charitably funny lines that don't go to Deadpool himself. But having someone with the real world context of Miller joking about his awkward erection is not the best thing that could have happened.

And sure, they might have a joke in there about actors being edited out after similar scandals, it's hard not to think he shouldn't have just been removed. It's not like he added much apart from being the bridge to 'Pool hiring the X-Force (even then it could easily have been changed).
