Segundo o diretor e os escritores, foi uma brincadeira:
[Director] David Leitch says the basic concept of killing off these characters right away was to “fuck with the audience through Deadpool’s lens”, and co-writer Rhett Reese adds that they actually shot additional scenes with the X-Force team for trailers, just to throw off the audience:
“One of the things we did, we asked the actors if they’d be willing to shoot extra footage – that indicated they were in more of the movie than we were actually going to use them in. So, Terry Crews and Bill Skarsgård and these guys all went out back in front of a green screen and did a bunch of fighting with stuntmen. And you see it in trailers. You see Bedlam kicking ass. They all stayed an extra half day to do that. It was awesome.”
"Quando eles chegaram ao set nós filmamos material adicional que sabíamos que íamos colocar em trailers que nunca estariam no filme", diz David Leitch. “Era tudo sobre jogar uma brincadeira como apenas Deadpool faria. Ryan está se aproximando da tela e fazendo cócegas em você. ”
