Josh Brolin Casting - Anyone else bothered he is also Cable?


I'm confused - Thanos is an epic, epic villian! I absolutely LOVED Infinity War. I'm abit dismayed though that he is also starring as Cable in the upcoming Dead Pool movie.

Does this bother anyone else?

Pump the hate breaks Thanos.

No.

NEXT!!

It doesn't exactly bother me, but I do wish they had cast Ron Perlman as Cable instead.

reply

Yes! I know what you mean. I off course love me some Josh Brolin- he is amazing! But an EPIC 10 year build up and he is Supervillan and Hero?

reply

Bingo!

Thanos was 95% CGI anyway, and Ron's voice would have made him a lot better imo.

reply

thats not James Brolin, it is Josh Brolin

reply

Nope.

Thanos and Cable don't look the same to me, even if the same actor is portraying both. One is Titan and one is Earth mutant.
It shouldn't be that big of a conflict.

Josh Brolin was also both Jonah Hex and Dwight from Sin City 2. If we include the remake of Oldboy, he has played five comic characters.

Chris Evans has played four comic characters.

Samuel L Jackson has played two.

Scarlett Johansen has played three (oddly enough, two of those characters appeared alongside Sam Jackson).

The list goes on.
