Deadpool 2 Review: 8 Ups & 3 Downs

2. TJ Miller COULD Have Been Cut

Given how long Deadpool 2 is, you'd think they'd have been happy to take any opportunity to cut superfluous elements, so it's very much a surprise that TJ Miller remains in the film, given the accusations of sexual misconduct against him (and his arrest for a fake bomb threat).

A precedent has been set to remove such problematic stars and no matter how much the studio insisted Miller couldn't be removed, he doesn't actually do that much in the film. Replacing him wouldn't have taken much and we wouldn't have had to endure too close-to-the-knuckle jokes about his "nervous erection."
