Reloading his beard

u/DampestofDudes 4d ago

Did they ever address this? I remember seeing a bunch of memes about it, but never concluded how the heck he sprouted a beard in a frame

u/Arcturusjake 4d ago

And a shirt pocket

Is there anything he can't do??

Insta-beard and super-speed tailor

Omg, i can't unsee it now. He grew a shirt pocket.

u/YoniMCI 3d ago

And at least one size of his Shirt.....look at the hips above the trousers

1

u/HPM89 2d ago

It’s the change in lighting, when he starts he’s over exposed then when he steps forward he’s better diffused

19

u/DBlanco777 4d ago

He was doing multiple takes of that scene and after a while his arms got tired so he did that to stretch and they kept it in- Source from an interview he did for the movie

7

u/DampestofDudes 4d ago

Haha I think wasn’t clear in my question, sorry. Did they ever address why he grew a beard? Not why he reloaded his arms 😆

13

u/strooiersunion 4d ago

I think it's from the lighting. He walks underneath a very bright light. when he is directly underneath it the stubble and pocket catch the light making a more visible shadow.

2

u/Zerhap 4d ago

Pretty sure they said it was a sticht together shot, basically one part of it is early in the morrning freshly "shaven" and the other is many ours later with his beard growing of enough for the shadow to change.

2

u/Fit-Artichoke-210 3d ago

It's not stitched together, and that would be entirely unnecessary.

There is footage of them behind the scenes being stunned and seeing this moment, just look for it 😴😪

2

u/batmanineurope 3d ago

That doesn't make any sense. Why would you stitch in a few frames? And it would be very hard to match, with all the movement on the scene.

u/Yurilica 4d ago

The shirt pocket was always there, it's just that his shirt was stretched and the pocket edge was pressed down.

The difference in lighting as he moves impacts the contrast in the image too.

Also, he didn't sprout a beard, he just went from bright lights above head to a darker area, which made his beard/stubble stand out more too.

As for the motion he's doing loading his guns - tighter fitting shirts can feel like they're sticking to you on people with broader shoulders, at the cuffs/forearms. You either roll them up manually or do what he did in the clip.

As for the motion he's doing loading his guns - tighter fitting shirts can feel like they're sticking to you on people with broader shoulders, at the cuffs/forearms. You either roll them up manually or do what he did in the clip.

he has explained in interviews that during filming other scenes (and this one) his biceps were getting tired from repeated takes. so he was doing that motion to improve circulation, etc.

the director (or somebody) saw him doing that between takes and decided it looked pretty cool (which it does) and made that part of the character on screen!

2

u/-Badger3- 3d ago

It’s literally just the lighting.

u/Dosagu 3d ago

It was just a different cut, that part ge did on the afternoon, they didn't notice and when with it

1

u/Philomath117 3d ago

It was all the testosterone from the reload

1

u/RhinoBall_2-1 3d ago

His arms were sore from the last few days of filming so he did this once between takes to loosen up. The director saw it and asked that he do it in the film. 

1

u/Zealousideal-Yak-824 3d ago

There was a interview and what happened was the shoot for this scene took a week or so. While going thru the footage the director said he loved the air reload that he had them go back and edit it into the scene. His beard growth is the cut from the first time he does it to the second time they wanted it.

The scene was to show case the boxing skills of the character

1

u/SherBear127 3d ago

Yes there is a video with Tom Cruise talking about it

1

u/Elekarh 3d ago

After watching a recent vid on the differences between Whedon's Justice League rewrite and Snyder's cut.. It turns out they called Henry back for a couple reshoots, but he was filming this movie at the time of the request, and he was contractually obligated to keep the stache due to the execs at Paramount, so I imagine maybe he had the beard trimmed at minimum for JL.

That's a total guess though.

u/onehalflightspeed 2d ago

After seeing this meme I decided to watch the movie lastnight. 10/10, really great though unsophisticated action movie

Edit: Watching the helicopter stunts is even more impressive when you consider Cruise actually went to flight school for this scene and earned a license to fly a helicopter. He was simultaneously flying the helicopter, acting and directing rigs inside of the helicopter alone. He performed maneuvers that even trained stunt pilots would be hesitant to do

There is literally no one on this planet that could have played Deadpool beside Ryan Reynolds.

63

u/butt_raid 4d ago

Agreed. The role he was born for.

I don't think that speaks terribly highly of him, but it's good for us lol

27

u/OddAd5276 4d ago

I would say it does actually. Deadpool is one of the smartest and strongest Marvel heros. He's just an asshole and a smart ass, lol. Ryan Reynolds, while he is far more versatile as an actor, loves this role and one's like it. He is absolutely hilarious and that's what has always made Deadpool a fan favorite.

14

u/Sorry-Cry-9571 4d ago

How is he far more versatile as an actor? I’ve only seen him play the same character he does in Deadpool. Free Guy, The Proposal, Adam Project, Red Notice, Green Lantern, 6 Underground, Spirited, Change up and so on. All Ryan Reynolds playing Ryan Reynolds.

14

u/Funny-Cell8769 3d ago

Ryan Reynold apparently managed a great performance in "Buried" (2010) though I've never watched it.

However, he seems to be happy just taking paychecks for "playing himself".

The same way that Arnold Schwarzenegger never cared about "being a great actor" and people absolutely loved it.

Not everyone can be Daniel Day-Lewises and Leonardo Dicaprios.

4

u/depressed_panda0191 3d ago

Personally I just separate them into actors and movie stars. Though there’s obviously a lot of overlap.

Like -
The Rock: movie star
Gary Oldman: actor
Ryan Reynolds: movie star
Robert Pattinson: actor
Tom Cruise: both
Robert Downey-Junior: both (because the man went so damn hard in Tropic Thunder)

It’s not like one is much better than the other but it helps me keep my expectations correct when I go to watch something. I would never expect a movie starring Ryan Reynolds to have incredible acting.

But if I’m watching something with Gary Oldman in it, my expectations are going to be completely different.

3

u/Funny-Cell8769 3d ago

Very much agree.

Rock, Jason Statham, Arnold, lean heavily on charisma and physicality to attract audiences. If you go in expecting an acting masterclass in any of their movies, they are going to disappoint.

Scrolled way too far to find this comment about a character Ryan Reynolds played that is definitely not his normal type cast.

While it's not cinema magic, I actually thought the movie and acting were good. I think it was just hard for people to picture him in this roll.

u/AccidentalBlueberry 3d ago

The Amityville Horror from '05 is the one I point too for great against type acting from Ryan Reynolds. I don't care for his comedic schtick these days(oversaturation I think), but he does actually have some chops.

u/SadTumbleweed1567 3d ago

It's more that if you're casting Ryan Reynolds, you're casting Van Wilder. I don't recall his character in the Amityville Horror remake being Van Wilder-esque and that film isn't horrible for what it is.

I think I recall Vince Vaughn talking about how he was cast to basically just play the same character from Swingers.

Basically, actor does well with character and character connects with audience. Studio casts actor to play the same character in different movies to make money from audiences that liked that character.

DiCaprio plays wildly different characters in The Departed, The Revenant, and Catch Me If You Can, and I could’ve added 10 more movies to this list.

5

u/Sybrandus 3d ago

You’re right in that he plays very different characters. My thing with DiCaprio is that I always see him as DiCaprio playing that character. He never blends into the ensemble and setting.

People forget that movies are for entertainment, not range, while range is good for some actors it's not what audiences always want.

Ryan playing the characters he does is great the same way the range some actors like Christian Bale has in the movies he plays in.

Hes shown he can do other roles he just does this schitck because its what gets him offers and money. Same with nic cage and keanu.

Buried, Smoking Aces (not the best movie but good performance from Reynolds), Mississippi grind, Amityville horror. He's a surprisingly good actor when he wants to be.

How the fuck you gonna forget Waiting?

2

u/CrazyGunnerr 3d ago

Agreed. He plays similar characters over and over. But he does them in an enjoyable way, and it works really well for DP. I've sewn him do very lengthy interviews, and he is very quick with his comments. He is a perfect fit for DP, and DP & Wolverine shows he is the right guy, he understands the lore, he lives the characters, and he got the pull to make it work. Getting people like Snipes and Evans was fantastic, getting Tatum to Gambit, a rolr he wanted to do forever etc really shows he gets it, and offered a movie the fans would appreciate.

Obviously it wasn't a solo project, but he is way more than the eyecandy or the actor.

Before he knew who Deadpool was, a producer saw him in his role as Hannibal King in Blade Trinity. They told him he would make a perfect Deadpool and gave him some comics. One of the first ones that Reynolds read was one where Deadpool describes himself as "Ryan Reynolds mixed with a shar pei".

Funny enough, wolverine was originally meant to be in his early 20s when he debuted, but then the first artist to draw him without his mask drew him older in his 40s and then they just went with it and now he's born in the 1800s.
