Josh Brolin is open to reprising his role as Thanos in a future Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film.
The 56-year-old actor starred as 'The Mad Titan' in 2018's 'Avengers: Infinity War' and 'Avengers: Endgame' in 2019 and has now revealed he would consider playing the character again as long as it's for the right reasons – much like the upcoming sequel to his 2015 action-thriller 'Sicario'.
He told Collider: "I’m not kidding - there’s a thing with playing Thanos. It’s like, Oh, they’re gonna bring Thanos back.’ It’s like 'Sicario'; it has to be right.
"It’s like Ryan Reynolds and I talking about Taylor Swift and we should be talking about 'Deadpool 4'. But we go back and forth."
Josh – who worked with filmmakers Joe and Anthony Russo on 'Infinity War' and 'Endgame' – heaped praise on the directing duo and added that he "would do anything" the pair wanted him to do in a potential future Marvel movie.
He said: "Again, it’s what in his mind fits, what in my mind fits. Thanos has to fit if you’re going to bring him back. I would do anything that the Russos wanted me to do."
Currently, the Russos are working on 'Avengers: Doomsday' and 'Avengers: Secret Wars', which will see Robert Downey Jr. return to the franchise after first portraying Iron Man to play the villain Doctor Doom.
Joe recently promised 'Doomsday' would be worth the wait, and teased audiences could expect something "really explosive" when it comes to cinemas in 2026.
Speaking with GamesRadar+, the 'Captain America: Civil War' director said: "We're all very close. We had been working on another project before Marvel approached all of us – so we're working on another project with Robert – and there was a story that evolved through conversations that we got very excited about. Because it's always got to be the story."
