The house of mouse always wins.

“Deadpool & Wolverine” filmmakers axed a joke about Mickey Mouse’s “c–k” after Disney requested the line be cut from the Ryan Reynolds-Hugh Jackman Marvel movie.

Prior to the summer blockbuster’s release, Reynolds, 48, who also co-wrote the superhero flick, revealed that Disney CEO Bob Iger asked him not to say one raunchy quip that made it into the final script.

“Ryan, Bob Iger here. Would love it if you’d take that one line out. It’s really going to make our life hard over here,” Reynolds recalled of his conversation with Iger.

The “Free Guy” star did not, however, disclose what the joke was.

However, Disney has now released the official “Deadpool & Wolverine” script on their FYC (For Your Consideration) portal, which makes public certain materials from projects they are hoping will win big during awards season. And it turns out the script contains the unuttered joke.

The gag occurs in the scene where a furious Deadpool breaks the fourth wall after learning that Magneto is already dead.

“F–K! What we can’t even afford one more X-Man? Disney is so cheap. I can barely breathe with all this Mickey Mouse c–k in my throat,” Deadpool says.

Despite the cut, the “Deadpool & Wolverine” creative team has lauded Disney for tolerating other digs the movie made at its expense as well as the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the personal lives of the film’s stars, and other taboo or explicit subject matter.

Though the “c–k” joke didn’t make it in the movie, the line that replaced it wasn’t exactly clean either, as director Shawn Levy, 56, said prior to the script being released.

“There was only one line in the entire movie that we were asked to change,” said Levy, who was one of the co-writers alongside Reynolds.

“We have made a pact, Ryan and I, to go to our grave with that line, but I will say that it was replaced with an equally dirty line of dialogue about Pinocchio shoving his face up Deadpool’s ass and starting to lie like crazy.”

Levy recalled, “I was like, ‘Ryan, that’s your replacement line in response to, ‘Can we clean it up?’ That’s Ryan Reynolds for you, audacious to the very edge.”

Other less dirty jokes that did make it into “Deadpool & Wolverine” still drew plenty of conversation, particularly jabs about the respective divorces of star Hugh Jackman and Jennifer Garner, who made a cameo as Elektra, the Marvel character she played alongside ex-husband Ben Affleck in 2003’s “Daredevil” and a standalone 2005 film about the Marvel hero.

Marvel took a risk with “Deadpool & Wolverine,” its first ever R-rated release, and it paid off. The movie has raked in $1.3 billion at the box office and boosted Disney’s position on Wall Street.

“Deadpool & Wolverine” is currently available to stream on Disney+.
