T.J. Miller, known for his role as the witty bartender Weasel in the Deadpool franchise, has had a change of heart about his former co-star Ryan Reynolds. After previously stating he would never work with Reynolds again due to personal grievances, Miller now describes Reynolds as "a good friend" and expresses enthusiasm about potentially reprising his role in a future Deadpool film.
Speaking on SiriusXM’s The Bonfire, Miller shared, “We talked a little while ago. He’s just been such a good friend right now. I think returning for Deadpool 4 would be awesome.” His comments mark a stark contrast to his 2022 interview on The Adam Carolla Show, where he accused Reynolds of being "horrifically mean" during the filming of Deadpool 2. At the time, Miller claimed that Reynolds’ behavior on set seemed personal, as the actor spoke to him as if he were his character, Weasel.
A History of Feuds and Reconciliations
In 2022, Miller's comments about Reynolds raised eyebrows. Reflecting on a particular moment during the filming of Deadpool, Miller said Reynolds told him in character, "You’re not the star, but you do just enough exposition to make it funny, and then we can move on with the real movie." Miller interpreted this as a jab at his role in the franchise, adding that he felt Reynolds’ massive success after Deadpool changed him.
However, Miller later clarified that the incident had been misconstrued. On Jim Norton & Sam Roberts Show, he revealed that Reynolds had reached out via email shortly after the comments were made public. “It was really cool. He emailed me the next day, and it was a misunderstanding,” Miller explained. “I emailed him back, and now it’s fine.”
Controversies and Professional Setbacks
Miller’s absence from Deadpool & Wolverine, which starred Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, was largely attributed to his personal controversies. Between 2016 and 2018, Miller faced allegations of assault, a fake bomb threat, and on-set misconduct, leading to professional fallout. Despite these challenges, Miller appears optimistic about the future, both personally and professionally.
He also extended an olive branch to director Michael Bay, with whom he had a contentious working relationship during the filming of Transformers: Age of Extinction. “I wasn’t sure I’d work with him again,” Miller admitted. “But now we’re buddies, and I’d do almost anything he wanted to do.”
A Possible Comeback?
While a Deadpool 4 sequel has not been officially announced, the success of Deadpool & Wolverine—grossing over $1.3 billion worldwide—suggests the franchise has plenty of life left. Miller’s willingness to return as Weasel indicates he’s ready to rejoin the fold, provided Reynolds extends the invitation.
Whether or not Miller will make his Deadpool comeback remains uncertain, but his newfound camaraderie with Reynolds and his hopeful outlook signal a potential new chapter for the actor. As Miller put it, “I think it’d be awesome to come back. It’s really up to Ryan.”
For now, fans can only speculate, but the possibility of Weasel’s return adds another layer of intrigue to the future of the Deadpool universe.
