10 Actors Who Just Disappeared From Movies

10. Jon Bernthal - Baby Driver

Jon Bernthal was given major prominence in the marketing for Edgar Wright's Baby Driver, so what a surprise it was when he straight-up ducked out of the movie at the mere 12-minute mark.

Bernthal's thug Griff only sticks around for the dizzying introductory heist sequence, after which he exits the elevator with the crew and tells them, "If you don't see me again, it's 'cuz I'm dead." And like that, he's gone.

While this is clearly parodying a very similar line spoken in Wright's Shaun of the Dead ("Next time I see him, he's dead"), it's also highly plausible that Griff was in fact foreshadowing his own demise.

Many fans have since come to believe that he was killed off by a member of the heist crew, most likely the psychotic Buddy (Jon Hamm).

Either way, despite getting high billing among the cast, he's out of the movie before it's even really gotten started.
