In Deadpool 2, Vanisher is a comedic character who remains invisible throughout most of the film. The audience only gets a glimpse of him when he meets his demise during the disastrous parachuting scene. It's then revealed that Vanisher is played by none other than Brad Pitt. His appearance is a brief but memorable cameo that adds a humorous twist to the chaotic sequence. Vanisher is a member of Deadpool’s X-Force team, which is quickly and hilariously wiped out in their first mission.

In the comics, Vanisher is a more developed character. His real name is Telford Porter, and he first appeared in X-Men #2 in 1963. Vanisher is a mutant with the ability to teleport instantly across vast distances, which he uses for criminal activities. Over the years, Vanisher has been both a villain and, at times, a reluctant ally to various superhero teams. He has crossed paths with the X-Men, X-Force, and other mutants, often playing the role of a self-serving opportunist. His character in the comics is more serious and less comedic than the version in Deadpool 2, where his role is played for laughs.

Brad Pitt's cameo in Deadpool 2 is one of the film's most surprising moments. He plays Vanisher, a member of Deadpool’s X-Force team who is invisible throughout most of the movie. Vanisher’s presence is mostly implied until he accidentally parachutes into power lines during the team's disastrous mission. At that moment, Pitt’s face briefly appears, revealing that the invisible character was played by him all along.

Pitt agreed to this cameo as a favor to David Leitch, the director of Deadpool 2, who had worked as his stunt double in movies like Fight Club and Troy. Pitt's conditions for the cameo were minimal—he only asked for the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) minimum payment of $956 and a cup of coffee. This lighthearted approach made the cameo both surprising and fun for the audience.

In return, Ryan Reynolds made a cameo in the 2022 action-comedy Bullet Train, which starred Brad Pitt and was also directed by David Leitch. In the film, Reynolds plays a character named Carver, an assassin whose absence allows Pitt’s character, Ladybug, to take over a job on the bullet train. Reynolds’ appearance is brief but humorous, and it serves as a playful nod to their professional friendship. This cameo was seen as a lighthearted exchange, with Reynolds returning the favor after Pitt's cameo in Deadpool 2.

Brad Pitt said he'd do it for FREE if it wasn't for Union rules

[spencerwells]

"OH NO VANISHER!"
-Pool, Dead

[JoshuaFoster-oicp]

He also is credited with Keith, an invisible imaginary friend in the movie IF.

[wolfproduction]

He probably only did 1 day shoot, 956 dollars for 1 day filming is still a good salary for an actor considering some movies take months to make

[chadjones]

956 dollars for one second is the equivalent of making 3.4 million dollars an hour

[RobertSmith-ikvd]
