Even now, any Marvel fan sees the figure of Thanos and starts to tremble. It’s likely that not even Doctor Doom can cause the same devastation that Avengers: Infinity War left us with, when all the heroes we’d learned to love fell one by one. Josh Brolin did a spectacular job as the Mad Titan, but it wasn’t the first time he’d dropped by a Marvel movie.
Now this is Thanos
In 2018, the same year as Infinity War, the actor played Cable in Deadpool 2, winning everyone over (and repeating the dynamic of the fabulous Cable and Deadpool comic, by the way). However, of course, even with an infinite multiverse, it’s possible that one of the two may never return, and the actor has decided to let him go.
“Thanos is a very, very interesting role, and I had a great time doing it. You know what I’m saying? Very much. Joe Russo, Anthony Russo, those guys are in a league of their own”, he said. I’m sure you can’t guess which of the two roles he’s willing to walk away from.
“I’m glad Deadpool 2 existed, and that Cable only appeared in that movie. It’s a good memory”. Put another way: Ryan Reynolds, you’re not fooling me into showing up in one of yours again… but maybe Thanos, somehow, might just be able to snap his fingers again, right?
