While Deadpool and Wolverine provided numerous shocks for fans, many were particularly excited to see Wesley Snipes return as Blade. Ryan Reynolds’ eyes welled up with emotions as he witnessed the reaction to the character’s surprise comeback in real time. Reynolds discussed the major returns in Deadpool and Wolverine, particularly Snipes’ portrayal of Blade, in an interview. When the picture was presented early for fans at San Diego Comic-Con, Snipes appeared to join Snipes, heightening the surprise. Snipes was welcomed with wild ovation, indicating that his triumphant comeback had made many people extremely pleased. Reynolds found it moving to witness such a loving response, as he remembered how he had shed tears watching it unfold in front of him.
“I cried at San Diego Comic-Con because it was just the most- I don’t know, man, just feeling, that redemption in the air and how powerful and what a movie star Wesley Snipes is,” Reynolds told me. “The bet we were making was how much audiences miss him dearly—they just maybe didn’t realize it yet.”

Director Shawn Levy also commented on audience reactions to the huge returns, saying, “I also would say that feeling in a movie theater of collective awe and joy, that is the dream of the theater experience.” That is something that is specific to being in a dark room with strangers. At this point, I’ll admit that I have a small addiction to the response videos that are so popular on social media. Those items are like crack to me because they remind me of the same feeling I got at Comic-Con and every time I saw the movie. It’s the sheer delight we were attempting to imbue this film with.” “I love looking around when Wes walks in,” Reynolds added. “Jen Garner as Elektra knocks the roof off the building, and then it’s like a layer cake of fantastic that just keeps going. When a playing card breaks the frame and flies back into Channing Tatum’s fingers, revealing him as Gambit… “I don’t think there’s a better feeling on Earth than that.”
