Josh Brolin who played Thanos says he only agreed to play Thanos because Thanos is the only Titan who can take on all the avengers alone.
Thanos actor Josh Brolin says he only agreed to play Thanos because the Titan takes on all of the Superheroes in Avenger: Infinity War and Endgame. Brolin made his first appearance in Guardians of the Galaxy and returned in the mid-credits scene for Avengers: Age of Ultron. He was then essentially the lead in Avengers: Infinity War, lending depth and emotion to the villain as he successfully hunts down the Infinity Stones as Thanos Is The Only Titan.
Brolin fought many epic battles in Avenger: Infinity War first he encountered Iron Man, Dr. Strange, Spider-Man, and most of the Guardians of the Galaxy on Titan, then he arrives in Wakanda and takes on the rest of the Avengers. There he plays his masterstroke, he kills Vision, defeats Scarlett Witch and Thor, and wipes half of all life in the universe out of existence. Brolin again returns in Avenger Endgame as Thanos. We find that Thanos Is The Only Titan who fights all the assembled Avengers in one of the most largest and tremendous battles ever at the Movie Climax.
Thanos Is The Only Titan, Revealed Josh
Now, Josh revealed that he wouldn’t have taken the role if the Titan had been facing just one of the Avengers, Thanos Is The Only Titan. While having an Interview with legendary cinematographer Roger Deakins and his wife, James, on their podcast Team Deakins, Brolin said that when he signed to play the role of Thanos, he was given a character Bibel so that he can prepare for the role, that Bibel revealed that the Thanos would be taking on all of The Avengers in the Infinity War saga. He also revealed that first he was just signed for a Cameo role that didn’t even pay very well.
Brolin’s comments reveal that not only was the plan to have Thanos take on all The Avengers baked into the character from early on but also that Marvel Studios clearly wasn’t sure they’d follow through on those plans from the beginning. By only signing him on for his first appearance in Guardians of the Galaxy, Marvel was likely giving themselves an out in case the Infinity War sage didn’t play out the way they wanted it to. Clearly, though, it did and Brolin was brought back for further appearances.
This statement that Thanos Is The Only Titan, by Brolin revealed an interesting fact that he is not keen to play a stock villain in some small superhero movie, he wanted some complex and Strong villain to make his Super Villian debut. And his planned turned to be really successful as Thanos now is the greatest villain of all time.
