Update May 20: Turns out we missed a cameo, but in all fairness to us this that was sort of the point.
CAMEO IN DEADPOOL 1 MOVIE
So the movie opens with a figurine of Wolverine’s death scene from last year’s Logan and closes with a moment in which new-Deadpool pays a visit to old-Deadpool and Origins-era Wolvie. Due to the fact that Ryan Reynolds first played a disappointing (and occasionally mouthless) incarnation of “the merc with the mouth” in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, this Deadpool’s got a little bit of a beef with the clawed dude. Okay, so the greatest showman didn’t really come back from the dead in Deadpool 2, but his image appears quite a bit.
CAMEO IN DEADPOOL 1 FULL
Full disclosure: There may have been more mutants in the shot, but it goes by so fast that it’s hard to catch them all. The camera reveals Nicholas Hoult‘s Beast closing the door to another room where Evan Peters‘s Quicksilver and James McAvoy’s Professor X are having a meeting and looking slightly perturbed. When all of sudden, there’s a quick cutaway shot to see who he’s bothering. He’s roaming the halls using a pilfered wheelchair and blabbering on. In the movie, Wade is dragged back to the mansion for rehabilitation by his steely Russian pal Colossus. Turns out: They are all right there, just ignoring this nonsense. But Deadpool 2 has solved the mystery of where Professor X and the rest of the gang are.
In the first movie he quips, “It’s almost like the studio couldn’t afford another X-Man.” It’s assumed they are off saving the world from total destruction or something. One of the persistent Deadpool questions is: So where are the rest of the X-Men? Whenever Wade visits the X-Mansion, the more famous mutants seem to be missing. James McAvoy and the current X-Men cast deign to show up, very briefly. Is it coincidence that his demise is caused by a cable? Probably not. He’s a fan, and we love him, and I think he would’ve made an amazing Cable.” Apparently, enough of a fan to lend his image for a goof. Last year, director David Leitch told : “We had a great meeting with Brad, he was incredibly interested in the property.
At one point, there was talk swirling that Pitt was going to play Deadpool antagonist Cable, a part which ultimately went to Josh Brolin. In true Deadpool form, it’s a joke about a joke: The non-corporeal Vanisher was funny enough that he’s actually one of the most recognizable actors in the world is just icing on the cake.įor the true obsessives, there’s also a little bit of inside baseball to the casting. The shot of Brad Pitt’s beautiful face lasts barely a moment. There’s no mistaking it: It’s Benjamin Button himself. And when Vanisher lands on and gets electrocuted by a telephone wire, he flickers onscreen for a second. Almost every member of the X-Force is killed in some graphic way. (Ha ha.) That is, until things go horribly wrong.ĭeadpool plans a heist that involves jumping out of a helicopter during high winds. Among them is Vanisher, a mutant whose special power is invisibility. Here’s the deal: Deadpool assembles a squad he calls the X-Force to go and rescue wayward teen Russell Collins. Seriously, though, you need to pay attention or you’ll miss him. For literally a second, possibly less, the actual Brad Pitt appears on the screen. Onto the cameos.īlink, and you might miss Brad Pitt (!!!). If you want to save the surprises for the theater, read no further. Along the way some very, very familiar faces pop up. He finds the will to fight again when called upon to deal with a troublesome mutant kid from New Zealand (Julian Dennison of the excellent Hunt for the Widlerpeople). In Deadpool 2, we catch up with cancer-patient-turned-unkillable-reluctant-hero Wade Wilson, who’s dealing with the death of his girlfriend Vanessa (Morena Baccarin)-which in Wade’s case involves peeing on himself on a barstool and blowing himself up. (Does his body get cut in half? Yes, indeed it does.)ĭeadpool‘s schtick means for the most part a whole lot of jabs at Marvel movies and Ryan Reynolds‘s career choices, but in some cases it also takes the form of wild celebrity cameos-including a doozy of one involving one of the biggest stars on the planet. Though, to be honest, that wouldn’t be the worst bodily harm inflicted on the indestructible anti-superhero in the movie. Spoilers ahead, though they’re really just of the fun, harmless variety.ĭeadpool, that self-referential asshole, winks at the audience so much in his new sequel, out this weekend, that you think his eyes might fall out.
