Donald Glover isn't holding back against Marvel TV in his latest Twitter post that leaked his "finale" script for the canceled Deadpool animated series on FX.

The adult action-comedy show was recently announced to be shelved, with Glover, his brother Stephen, and FX all stepping away from the project before it even began production.

While it was FX who first issued the statement and cited "creative differences" as the reason for the falling out, Glover is speaking up now and he's definitely not holding back.

Donald Glover Talks On Twitter

"For the record: I wasn't too busy to work on Deadpool," the Atlanta creator first wrote in a since-deleted tweet, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The multi-talented Atlanta creator chose to make a statement by posting screenshots of a full episode script that he calls the "Finale."

Of course, it's unlikely to be the actual one he penned for the FX series, since the ultra-meta script showed the protagonist Deadpool/Wade Wilson wondering morosely about the show's cancellation.

Tasked to follow around Sudan, the last northern male white rhino in the planet, Glover's Deadpool is given a lot of opportunity to muse aloud to himself in the ultra-meta script. He eventually pours his heart out to Sudan in a one-sided conversation about the cancellation of the animated series.

"You know, I'm not mad about this whole 'cancelled' thing," Deadpool tells the rhino in the script, adding that it's probably not be the right time for a white man that's violent and gun-loving to be ranting on television.

"Other than the president!" he quips, then tells the stoic rhino that the joke would have gotten applause at the Last Week Tonight show. "I mean, I get it. Maybe they just wanna sell toys. And this style of comedy isn't it. It's more 'ha-ha but I'm mad.' I get that."

The wisecracking superhero wonders if racism was a factor, adding that the writers and references tended to be "pretty black." He goes on to talk about a goat yoga episode and a Taylor Swift episode, adding that another episode had him talking about Marvel selling toys to 7-year-old boys and 50-year-old pedophiles.

The script transitions smoothly into a monologue that feels like an outpouring of disappointment from Glover, saying that he just wants to know the real story behind the cancellation.

"It just feels like everyone wants something different, but no one wants [sic] to do anything different to get it," Deadpool laments. "Doesn't Marvel have enough feel-good minority shows everyone supports but doesn't watch? I think our show woulda been funny. I just wanted a place to be honest."

Marvel Stays Mum

While both FX and Glover have now issued their remarks on the cancellation, Marvel TV has not released a statement.

The Marvel takedown is quite a bold move on Glover's part, especially considering he has appeared in one of the recent MCU films, Spider-Man: Homecoming.
