Perhaps most exciting of all, though, is that the team at Marvel have the basic story of the film laid out and are moving forward. While it’s certainly exciting to see how excited Brolin is to do the film, maybe even more exciting is just how positive he is about the story. I was blown away, and had goose pimples pretty much 50% of the time that I was listening to what was going on, and pretty amazed that I’m going to be involved in it. And it’s really fun what they’ve chosen to do with the story. Basically, my character against everybody. It all comes down … these stories … these Avengers stories all come down to this conclusion, and that’s our involvement. Then the other side of it is really how much it means to people. But don’t forget about Thanos - that’s coming out,” which is amazing, which is really cool. “By the way, he’s got “Hail, Caesar!” coming out. If there’s any blurb of publicity at all for me, it includes Thanos in some way or another. This is the opposite.įirst of all, from a publicity point of view, or an interest, I’ve gotten more publicity playing Thanos, even though I haven’t done it yet, than all other movies combined. Or this is a great experience,” and you kind of know that it’s not. “Yeah, I sat at a table and I listened to the story from beginning to end, which was … you know, sometimes you go around and you go, “Oh, it’s a great movie. Here is what he told Moviefone regarding the film, In case you’ve forgotten, Brolin is the actor bringing Thanos to life in the MCU. After kicking off his career by playing Brand in 1985's The Goonies, the Oscar-nominated actor has gone on to nab memorable roles in Men in Black III (pictured below), No Country For Old Men, Inherent Vice, Old Boy, and Sicario.Apparently, Josh Brolin has sat down with the writers and producers over at Marvel for a story overview on Marvel’s gigantic, over-arching end-all movie event - Avengers: Infinity War. Marvel's track record with villains hasn't always been on the money (Ultron, we're looking at you), but Infinity War gives Thanos a solid backstory and relatively believable reason for wanting to destroy half of the universe, despite the craziness of the idea.įor those of you wondering why Brolin's voice sounds familiar, it's because you've watched him in countless films over the years. Fortunately not even that chin can distract from Brolin's fantastic performance, which brings depth, sadness, and even a little bit of empathy to the character. But seriously, guys - what is happening on his chin? Are those skin folds? Individual chin muscles? And why does he bear a startling resemblance to Bruce Willis? While Brolin continues to look better with age, his CGI counterpart cannot say the same. The intergalactic villain, voiced by Josh Brolin - who is also taking on the role of Cable in the Deadpool sequel, interestingly enough - made his first impression in the team-up movie's epic trailers thanks to his pale purple skin and one very questionable goatee.Īvengers: Infinity War marks the most screen time ever for Thanos, who we've only gotten minor glimpses of in the past in 2012's The Avengers and in 2014's Guardians of the Galaxy (he's Gamora and Nebula's dad, remember?). We all knew Thanos was going to be Avengers: Infinity War's big bad, but we weren't expecting his, um, interesting new makeover.
