Seth Rollins opens up about getting cut from "Captain America: Brave New World".
Rollins previously filmed for the movie, but he later confirmed that he was not in the film, as his scenes were cut from the final version.
Speaking on Not Just Football with Cam Heyward, Seth Rollins was asked about getting cut from "Captain America: Brave New World".
“I wasn’t gonna talk about it too much because I never know what I can say. But I saw the director had an interview this week, Julius Onah, who’s a phenomenal dude. He did an interview, and they asked him about my role and what happened with it and stuff like that, so I feel like I can talk about it a little bit more. Basically, I got repurposed for Giancarlo Esposito, who is a hell of an actor, special cat. So to lose out to him doesn’t hurt my feelings. The bottom line is, the movie went through a lot of adjustments. The original script is not the script that they ended up with. My character itself, I don’t know if it got repurposed or if it just got scrapped and a whole new thing went in there. But I had a great time filming with those guys. We did some really cool stuff that’s on the cutting room floor. I hope that somehow it lives in Easter egg form somewhere. I’d love to see some of the shots of that. I won’t give away too much, but it was a great experience. But yeah, they cut me. They cut me from the role. They’ve cut the family. My wife [Becky Lynch] had a role in ‘Eternals’, she did a post-credit scene for the original ‘Eternals’ film. The ‘Eternals’ franchise was intended to be multiple films, and she was supposed to be involved in that, and they cut her too. They cut the whole family, man," Rollins said.
