Deadpool and Wolverine’s editors have explained why moreWolverine variantsdidn’t make the cut – while simultaneously revealing the eye-watering sum behind Hugh Jackman’s brown-and-tan classic comic book suit.

“There was a whole bunch of [variants]. One of the storyboard artists, he was a huge comic book fan and he gave us a list of 10 of them… There were so many,” editor Dean Zimmerman toldComicBookMovie.com’s Josh Wilding.

“Here’s a perfect example: that brown and tan [suit], we spent about $100,000 building that. They’re expensive… We had to get a little economical with what we could come up with and do. ‘Hugh, can you take your shirt off and be bolted to a cross? Yeah, I can do that. No problem.’… ‘Can you be an old man? Sure.'”

Zimmerman added, “They were all thought out, but they were also done with a budget in mind and also time – once we resumed shooting, our deadline on this movie was so tight.”

Deadpool and Wolverine’s home release, meanwhile,has been setfor October 22. The DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K Ultra HD edition comes with multiple deleted scenes – includingthis playful jab at the MCU– and “hours” of bonus content.
