If you've seen Deadpool 2 you'll know that the sequel features a very brief appearance from a certain Hollywood A-Lister, and now we now how star Ryan Reynolds managed to swing it. SPOILERS follow...

However, star Ryan Reynolds was still able to get the Inglorious Basterds actor on board for a (very) brief cameo as The Vanisher, who is killed off along with most of his X-Force teammates in one of the movie's funniest sequences.
So, how did Reynolds and co. convince Pitt to appear? All it too was a cup of coffee!
"Brad made a joke to Ryan, he said, 'I'll do it for scale but you gotta throw in a cup of Starbucks.' A very specific cup of coffee, I can't remember which one it was", co-writer Rhett Reese revealed during an interview with ComicBook. "And he goes, 'And you gotta serve it to me yourself.'"
We're not sure if there's any footage of Reynolds bringing Pitt his beverage, but we're willing to bet someone filmed it!
