Bullet Train on TF1: pause at 1 hour and 44 minutes, only Deadpool fans understood this reference

Broadcast tonight on TF1, the action film “Bullet Train” by David Leitch contains a small cameo that will not have failed to make “Deadpool” fans smile.

Tonight, TF1 is broadcasting the action film Bullet Train for the first time. Directed in 2022 by David Leitch, this explosive and fast-paced entertainment (almost entirely set on the world’s fastest train) follows the misadventures of Coccinelle, a terribly unlucky assassin who was contacted at the last minute to carry out a new contract, his colleague Carver being bedridden by gastroenteritis.

At 1 hour, 44 minutes and 17 seconds…

Starring notably by Brad Pitt, but also by Joey King, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Michael Shannon, Bullet Train is one of those feature films that we recommend you (re)discover armed with a magnifying glass and your index finger ready to press the “pause” button on your remote control.

Equipped with several easter eggs (like many works of pop culture), the feature film offers us three nice cameos: an appearance by Channing Tatum as a train passenger, another by director David Leitch, and finally, the most remarkable of all…


Columbia Pictures

… Ryan Reynolds appears!

Indeed, if you press pause at 1 hour, 44 minutes and 17 seconds, in the scene where Michael Shannon explains his plan to Brad Pitt, you can see that the so-called Carver – that is to say the agent that Beetle was forced to replace and whom the villain of the film seeks revenge on at all costs – is played by none other than… Ryan Reynolds.

When you know that one of David Leitch’s previous feature films was Deadpool 2 (starring the same Ryan Reynolds) and that Brad Pitt made a memorable little cameo – he played, for a second, an invisible man getting electrocuted – you understand a little better what happened.


20th century Fox

Ryan Reynolds’ cameo at the end of Bullet Train is nothing more than a little payback from the actor. According to David Leitch on Entertainment Weekly’s microphone in 2022the actor who plays Deadpool had agreed to play the game on one condition: that his cameo be the same length as Brad Pitt’s.

Have you spotted any other nods in Bullet Train?
