“It’s Such A Drama Putting On That Suit”
Deadpool & Wolverine will include several cameos from previous Fox X-Men movies, but audiences shouldn’t expect to see this X-Men 3 star suit up.
This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.
Summary
- Vinnie Jones turned down Juggernaut cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine due to suit impracticality, despite loving the Deadpool movies.
- Jones mentioned the mental and physical toll of wearing Juggernaut suit all day made it impossible to agree on a deal.
- Even though Jones enjoyed reprising his role, budget constraints prevented him from joining Deadpool & Wolverine cast.
Despite being in the MCU, several Fox X-Men cameos are expected for Deadpool & Wolverine, but one character that has now been confirmed not to appear is Vinnie Jones’ Juggernaut. Jones originally played Juggernaut in X-Men: The Last Stand. Juggernaut appeared again in Deadpool 2, but this time, he was a fully CGI character voiced by Ryan Reynolds. It is unclear if the Reynolds version of Juggernaut will appear in Deadpool & Wolverine, following the tease that he was still alive after the ending of Deadpool 2.
While speaking with Yahoo UK, Vinnie Jones revealed that, although he was asked to cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine as Juggernaut, he ultimately had to turn down the role. Interestingly, the reason seems to be the impracticality of the suit and helmet. Jones’ comments on Deadpool & Wolverine can be seen below:
“Funnily enough, I just got asked to do Deadpool, the new one now, and I spoke to the director, and I just said it’s such a drama putting that suit on, you know. Mentally and physically. I mean, it had its mental toll as well because you’re in it, and you can’t do anything all day; you can only drink through a straw. So we couldn’t strike the deal for Deadpool. I mean, Deadpool’s my favorite movie of all f****** time, more or less. I really wanted to do it, but they didn’t have the budget to put me in the suit.
It’s clear from Jones’ statements that he enjoys the Deadpool movies and was more than happy to reprise his role. However, other factors made him ultimately have to give it up. It’s a little surprising Jones even considered the role in the first place, given how much his original X-Men: The Last Stand role was cut down.
