<P> Leitch's initial cut of the film was around two hours and twelve minutes, with "nips and tucks" done to it to get the run time down to the final two hours . By May 2018, Leitch was working on an official extended edition of the film with Fox wanting to "spin that out as a special thing". He said it would be closer to his initial runtime and would include a cut montage of Deadpool trying to commit suicide in various ways, an extended sequence in the X-Mansion, and alternate versions of jokes that were not chosen for the film's theatrical version . The extended cut was screened at San Diego Comic - Con 2018 at an event titled Deadpool 2: Uncut Screening . Ahead of the screening, a panel was held at the convention moderated by Soni and featuring other cast members . Some of the scenes cut from the theatrical version of the film were debuted at the panel . </P> <P> At the end of September 2018, Fox announced that it would release an untitled Deadpool film in theaters on December 21 . The studio suggested that press and fans "guess away" as to what this new film would be, but it was believed to be a re-cut version of Deadpool 2 that would carry a PG - 13 rating rather than being R - rated like the initial theatrical release . Reynolds hinted that the version of the film would feature Deadpool telling the story of the main version of the film to Fred Savage, parodying The Princess Bride (1987) in which a young Savage was told a bedtime story by Peter Falk who avoided "the scary parts that were a bit too adult for the youngster". Reese and Wernick revealed in October that the idea for the new version of the film was raised by Reynolds during a general discussion about the character following the film's initial release, and that Reynolds also suggested the framing device for the story . Reese and Wernick wrote new scenes for the new version, and Leitch returned to direct them around August . Wernick said the version would not just be for children who were unable to watch the R - rated release, as "it's subversive enough and fun and creative and something that only Deadpool could do . So I think it's going to be a real joy for not only a whole new audience, but also an audience that has seen and loved the Deadpool movies ." They added that the story of the film would not change "appreciably" between versions . </P> <P> The film was released on Digital HD on August 7, 2018, and physically on August 21 . The latter release covered the 4K Ultra HD, Blu - ray, and DVD formats, including both the theatrical version and Super Duper $@%! #& Cut unrated extended edition . The physical release includes an audio commentary for the theatrical version in 4K Ultra HD and Blu - ray formats, from Reynolds, Leitch, Reese, and Wernick . The Blu - ray format also includes a gag reel, deleted and extended scenes, alternate takes, featurettes on Easter eggs, the cast and characters, Leitch's directing, and the action and stunts, and more . </P> <P> As of September 27, 2018, Deadpool 2 has grossed $318.5 million in the United States and Canada, and $415.8 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $734.2 million, against a production budget of $110 million . </P>
