Morena Baccarin has seen her share of chaotic moments on set, but none as haunting as the underwater scene she shot for Deadpool 2, which shockingly didn’t even end up in the movie. While chatting at Fan Expo Chicago, the actress revealed how she was tossed into a submerged apartment replica, 20 feet deep, to film a tense sequence that left her with more than just nerves. Despite battling discomfort and actual eye damage, the scene never made the final cut. Now, years later, she admits the memory still lingers.

Morena Baccarin Recalls Traumatic Underwater Scene Cut from Deadpool 2

Long before Deadpool & Wolverine brought Vanessa back into the spotlight, Morena Baccarin went through a physically grueling stunt that most viewers never saw. During the production of Deadpool 2, Baccarin stepped into what was supposed to be a dramatic underwater scene, a fully built apartment set, completely sunken below the surface.

“For the second Deadpool, I did this whole underwater sequence that just never made it into the film, and I still have nightmares about it. It was very traumatic. They put the apartment set underwater. So I was in a room much like this, 20 feet underwater. There was a roof over my head—it felt so wrong,” she told Collider.
