00:04sick to his stomach because he was determined to do his job and do it well.
00:09Marvel's latest flick, Deadpool and Wolverine, has won the hearts of fans and
00:13in turn, the box office. So far, the film has brought in over 900 million dollars
00:18and is expected to hit the billion dollar mark by this weekend. And while
00:22success at the box office is always a win, the real champion when it comes to
00:27Wolverine is that it did right by comic fans. From poking fun at the multiverse
00:31to breaking the fourth wall to talk acquisitions from Fox and multiple cameos,
00:36the film is undoubtedly a crowd-pleaser. One of the most exciting cameos in
00:41Deadpool and Wolverine, besides Chris Evans returning as Johnny Storm, was
00:45Henry Cavill as an alternate timeline Wolverine, affectionately dubbed by
00:49Deadpool himself as the Cavalry. Sean Levy, the director of Deadpool and
00:54Wolverine, talked about the decision to include Cavill in the film amid DC's
00:58decision to replace him as Superman, sharing,
01:01Given that Deadpool is in constant conversation with culture, it felt like a
01:04great opportunity to first of all cast Henry Cavill in a part that he would
01:08kick at, but also to poke fun at that other comic book founded movie studio
01:13and play with some self-awareness there. But Cavill's cameo didn't come without
01:17struggle, as Levy reflected on the day they shot his scene, sharing, Cavill kept
01:22that cigar lit and in his mouth for the entirety of the shoot day. I remember
01:26hearing the next day that Henry was sick to his stomach because he had been
01:30inhaling cigar smoke for eight hours straight, but never once did he waver.
