‘Deadpool 3′ can only live and breathe through Ryan Reynolds’ improvisation

As the writers’ strike continues, several productions have opted (or been shamed) into shutting down filming. Writers form an integral part of a filmmaking team — would a film even exist without them? — and their presence on set ensures that they can consult with the other crew members, clarify the script, or rewrite scenes on the fly. Since union guidelines mandate that a member cannot write during a strike, writers cannot currently do any of their duties.

So, it was quite shocking when it was announced Deadpool 3 was entering production and continuing on with filming. The Deadpool franchise features significant creative contributions from series star Ryan Reynolds — his adlibbing was part of the film’s appeal, and he’s even credited as a writer on Deadpool 2. As he’s a WGA member, however, Reynolds must adhere to the rules of the strike, and cannot improvise any lines on the set of Deadpool 3 — doing so would constitute scabbing.
