Part 7/9:
Given the precedent in the comics, where stories often veer into mature and dark territory, the filmmakers could be aiming to retain some of that gritty storytelling. However, translating this effectively into a mainstream blockbuster is a delicate balancing act. If authentic, the inclusion of a scene depicting the brutal death of a baby could explain the early walkouts and negative reactions.
Moreover, the scene has been linked to the film’s lengthy reshoots—reportedly three rounds—to possibly tone down or alter controversial sequences. The delay in releasing promotional trailers, only surfacing 90 days before the film's debut, hints at ongoing editing and concerns about viewer reception.
