"Some of the things he did back in those days, that's not really my humor," Snipes explained. "I'm not tuned in that way. So I thought, 'Well, it's a little over the top for me.' But seeing him do it in this context [in Deadpool & Wolverine ] made a lot of sense. And seeing him do it and do it well, Ryan does something that most people can't do. He's unique in that way, and he's found a fantastic niche for himself doing what he does. Deadpool is Ryan Reynolds all day long. So it was enjoyable. It was enjoyable to work with him. It was enjoyable to revisit."
"Over the years, we've had very interesting conversations, some of them very substantive and some of them not," Snipes shared. "So I kind of resided that I was moving on from them, which is okay. I did three of them, and I thought they turned out pretty good. Not so bad... So we move on to other things, and bigger and better things, as well."
"I did not think it was possible," Snipes added of his Marvel return. "I didn't think we would be able to pull it off. I didn't think that Marvel was into it, Disney was into it - also because they had Mahershala [Ali] cast for the next upcoming version of it ... I thought it didn't make sense to me, but [when] you get a call from Ryan Reynolds out of the blue after 20 years, you go, 'Okay, I got to take this call. Let's see what this is about,'" he explained. "He told me the idea... They said 'yes' and 'it's a go.' 'If you're in, we're in.' Here we are."
