The suits are tough, Reynolds admitted.
But to me, the suits are freeing in that I find its clown work that Im doing.
I have to rely on my voice or micro facial expressions.

I rely on my body for more macro expressions.
And the suit is more than just a costume for Deadpool.
Pushing through the suit is challenging.
I look at suits a little bit differently, I think, theres always gotta be awhy.
For me, it really is old-fashioned clown work.
One is scarcity and surprise.
I do not know what the future of Deadpool will be.
And I love that.
I think its sort of important sometimes to make space for a movie to just be a movie.
We center him sometimes because thats what they want.
You cant center unless you take everything away from him.
You have to create a situation where hes so much the underdog.
And I dont think I can do that again.
So I think if he comes back, its going to be in someone elses movie.
Everybody burst into tears because you have all that cultural currency and cachet.
Reynolds compared the scenes featuring multiple Spider-Men to when people saw Wesley Snipes Blade inDeadpool & Wolverine.
Just lovely, Garfield answered.
Its not that I missed it.
It felt undone for me.
It was just very gratifying.
And then youre like, I got to reckon with kind of being disinvited to this party.
And thats when like the the work happens, right?
Thats when you start to really deal with your own stuff.
It was like a few years of that and Im so grateful for it in retrospect.
So its fucking primal.
Im like, Oh my God, this person, this character means so fucking much.'
For Garfield it was particularly powerful to interact with other Spidey kin.
Coming back … was like being re-welcomed into the party and it could be a party finally.
The pressure was on Tom.
We have an opportunity that no ones ever had, where its like a Spider-Man support group.
What does that look like?
Whats the dynamic that we could build that is completely specific and unique to these particular Spider people?
