Josh Brolin plays a key role in two very big comic book movies coming out in the next few months. The actor will first battle Earth's Mightiest as Thanos in Marvel's Avengers: Infinity War in April. He will then bring the time-traveling mutant Cable to life in Fox's Deadpool 2. Both movies have tremendous buzz surrounding them, and at SXSW this weekend, Brolin was asked his thoughts on them.

"They're both really good," Brolin told Flickering Myth at the weekend event. "That's what I know."

"I couldn't say anything about them before. But I've seen 30 minutes of [Avengers] Infinity War and I thought it was amazing," he said of the Marvel Studios blockbuster.

As for the highly anticipated Deadpool sequel, he offered, "I know is going to be very fun and funny, and fresh, because it's very different than the first Deadpool."

While we've seen Thanos appear in previous Marvel movies, Infinity War will be the first time we really see the destruction he's capable of. Cable, meanwhile, will be making his first big screen appearance in Deadpool 2. Asked what makes his characters different from other Marvel characters, Brolin teased:  "It's very different. That's all you need to know. It's very, very different."

Check out Brolin's comments in the video below, and get ready to see him invade Earth as Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War on April 27. You can see him bring Cable to life in Deadpool 2 on May 18.



A new behind the scenes video for Avengers: Infinity War is set to premiere on Monday courtesy of Entertainment Tonight. It will hopefully be followed by another trailer for the film that hopefully doesn't spoil too much of Thanos's destruction. Brolin's Cable was recently introduced to us in a fairly lengthy Deadpool 2 trailer back in February.

It could be deadpool is a lame duck without its original writer. I can see that happening as many fans didn’t like its teaser trailer where deadpool is laying on and eating the food of the guy that just died.

@Battabing - can you explain? I'm one of those weird people who actually liked every alien movie released, including 3 and resurrection. What was the flaws in alien 3? Is it killing of key characters in the very beginning? Wonder what it translates to in Deadpool
Maybe he doesn't mean literally
