Ryan Reynolds Faces Backlash Over Daughter’s Controversial Line in ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’
Alright, let’s talk about Ryan Reynolds—Hollywood’s favorite funny guy—who’s currently under fire for a pretty unexpected reason. The controversy? His young daughter, Inez, reportedly delivering a shockingly explicit line in the upcoming movie Deadpool & Wolverine .
Now, we all know the Deadpool franchise isn’t exactly family-friendly, but this one has fans seriously debating where the line should be drawn. According to reports, Inez, who was around seven years old at the time of filming, plays Kidpool—a younger version of Deadpool. In one scene, she delivers a line that, well… let’s just say it’s not the kind of language you’d expect a child to be saying, even in a raunchy R-rated film. The original version allegedly went, “Hey, when I want your opinion, I’ll take Wolverine’s d--k out of your mouth.” However, a version of the script on Disney’s official site has a slightly altered version: “Hey! When we want your opinion, I’ll take my d--k out of your mouth!”

Needless to say, this has sparked a major debate online. Many fans and parents are questioning why Reynolds allowed his daughter to say something so explicit, especially when it could have easily been dubbed over or rewritten. One critic on Reddit summed it up perfectly, saying, “There’s no reason she needed to deliver that line herself. It’s a character with a mask and no visible mouth, it could easily have been dubbed over.” Another person chimed in, “Or just remove the line completely. If a comedy writer can’t come up with an equally funny joke without making a kid say this, maybe they shouldn’t be a writer.”
Reynolds himself seemed to anticipate the backlash. In a behind-the-scenes commentary, he admitted, “Guiltily, that is my daughter Inez.” Director Shawn Levy, sitting beside him, responded, “I’m so sorry we have to admit that.” Reynolds went on to reveal that Inez actually didn’t want to say the line at first, but later changed her mind when she realized they were considering other young actors for the role. Ultimately, she ended up recording the line dozens, if not hundreds, of times—something even Levy admitted was to their “discredit.”
The online criticism has been swift and brutal. Many are calling Reynolds out for allowing his child to be exposed to such language in a professional setting, with some labeling him “Father of the Year” in a not-so-flattering way. Others, however, argue that Reynolds and his wife, Blake Lively, are well within their rights to make parenting choices as they see fit.
But that’s not all—Reynolds and Lively are already dealing with another major controversy. They’re currently locked in a high-stakes legal battle with director Justin Baldoni, who’s accusing the couple of defamation and extortion in a massive $400 million lawsuit. Lively, on the other hand, claims Baldoni is suing in retaliation for her speaking out against alleged sexual harassment. The ongoing drama has reportedly taken a toll on their family, with Lively stating in legal documents that their children are “emotionally uprooted” and “traumatized” by the situation.
So, with all this swirling around, the big question remains—was it really necessary for Inez to say that line? Or was this a case of pushing boundaries a little too far? Either way, Reynolds is certainly feeling the heat, and it’ll be interesting to see how this all plays out in the coming weeks. One thing’s for sure—when Deadpool & Wolverine hits theaters, this moment is going to have everyone talking.
