The action figure for this film's version of Deadpool is not very accurate.

Added DiffLines:

* ShowAccuracyToyAccuracy: The action figure based on this movie's incarnation of Deadpool doesn't look exactly like how he looks in the film, with the figure having bandages on each arm, the marks oon his body being red instead of black and the blades looking oddly shaped, probably a case of [[{{Bowlderlize}} bowlderization]] due to the toyline being aimed at children. Funko did released in 2020 a more faithful figure part of its Pop! line.

Added DiffLines:

** Creator/LievSchreiber also expressed dissatisfaction with how Deadpool was depicted in this film, calling the character "antithetical" to how he was supposed to be portrayed, especially when compared to Creator/RyanReynolds' later work with the character. That said, he did enjoy working on this movie overall, and expressed eagerness in playing Sabretooth again if asked.

** Creator/DavidHarbour auditioned for the part of the Blob before Creator/KevinDurand was cast, but ironically lost out due to being too fat for the scenes meant to take place ''before'' the character put on weight. Harbour would eventually portray Red Guardian in ''Film/{{Black Widow|2021}}'' set within the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse.
** Creator/EdgarWright was approached for the role of Chris Bradley before the casting of Creator/DominicMonaghan. However, Wright turned the offer, citing that he wasn't a good enough actor.
** [[Comicbook/{{Gambit}} Remy LeBeau]] and [[Comicbook/{{Cyclops}} Scott Summers]] were't happen in previous drafts, and the guy Logan went to see in New Orleans was actually Barbarus, an obscure Savage Land character from the comics.
** [[Comicbook/{{Deadpool}} Wade Wilson]] almost didn't appear in the movie either. The original final battle was going to be against a pack of feral, crazed Sabretooth clones. Presumably, this would've explained why Sabretooth doesn't speak very much and acts like a savage beast in the original ''Film/XMen1'' movie, with the implication that the Sabretooth working for Magneto was actually just [[ActuallyADoombot one of the surviving clones]].
