Daniel Scheinert who is best known for working with fellow director Dan Kwan known as DANIELS, the duo had an opportunity to meet with producers that could have led to them directing this film. Since director David Leitch ended up being at the helm of the comic book sequel, while making the publicity rounds for The Death of Dick Long (2019), Daniel Scheinert talked about passing up a meeting with 20th Century Fox to direct Deadpool 2. Scheinert explained to IndieWire: "My dad was so upset that we didn't take the meeting for 'Deadpool 2.' I'm sure they took meetings with tons of people. But we were like, 'We're not right for that,' and didn't take the meeting. Dan and I legitimately think we'd do a bad job on that kind of movie at this point in our careers. Directing's really hard, but if you're really passionate about it, it's worthwhile to follow your impulses - whereas trying to continue a franchise or punch up someone's script, or diving into some IP is a really challenging thing. It's not us being like, 'Ooh, we're original filmmakers.' We're just trying to be self-aware about what we're good at." To be clear, DANIELS said that they "weren't even offered" Deadpool 2. But it still takes a keen sense of self-awareness to turn down a potentially career-changing opportunity like that meeting. You can't help but respect the fact that they both know their limits as filmmakers right now and know exactly the kind of movies they want to make. While DANIELS has the kind of dark but comedic storytelling sensibilities that would serve Deadpool well, there have to be some indie filmmakers out there who don't make the leap to studio blockbusters, all so we can keep getting movies like Swiss Army Man - Un amico multiuso (2016) and The Death of Dick Long. Scheinert confirmed as much: "Obviously, when it comes to someone else's material, I'm attracted to things like death of 'Dick Long,' not 'Deadpool.'"
