Avengers: Secret Wars It won’t be released until mid-2027, but rumors about this film won’t be long in coming. Yesterday we told you that one of the latest leaks revealed that Marvel Studios is allegedly already in talks with Josh Brolin to return as Thanos. And now the actor himself has spoken about this.
Collider He had the opportunity to speak with the actor and openly consult with him regarding comments about his possible return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Thanos. Brolin didn’t shy away from the question and decided to take the train quarreling around the film, which will be directed by the Russo brothers and which will be a direct continuation Avengers: Judgment Day.
“I’m not kidding, there’s something about playing Thanos that’s like, ‘Oh, they’re bringing Thanos back.’ killerit needs to be done well. It’s like Ryan Reynolds and I talking about Taylor Swift when we should be talking about Deadpool 4. But we come and we go [con ello]. Again, this is what fits in your head and what fits in mine. If you’re going to bring Thanos back, he’s got to be the one to step up. “I would do whatever the Russians wanted me to do,” he explained.
It’s clear that Josh Brolin neither confirmed nor denied his participation in Avengers: The Secret Wars or any other MCU project. His words imply that his vision for the Thanos adaptation is to give the character a leading role, rather than just giving him a couple of minutes on screen with a cameo or an appearance that audiences forget about as soon as they leave the theater. However, his willingness to work with Anthony and Joe Russo again paves the way for his return to the Marvel Studios saga.
Josh Brolin is leaving the door open to return as Thanos. Avengers: Secret Wars
In addition to the rumors that exist about Avengers: Secret Warswhich of course should be taken with a grain of salt, fans are already coming up with some theories that could bring Thanos back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Although the Mad Titan was beheaded by Thor in the first minutes Avengers: Endgameand his version of the past was destroyed by Tony Stark’s snap, Death’s recent appearance in Agatha all together sparked rumors of the villain’s hypothetical return.
Let’s keep in mind that Thanos and Death have a pretty strong connection in the Marvel comics, and there are already rumors that the House of Ideas could take advantage of this to bring them together on the big screen. To this we must add that Avengers: Secret Wars will take several elements from crossover Secret Wars which was published between 1984 and 1986, as well as a mini-series of the same name released in 2015.
Although both publications featured Doctor Doom as one of the central figures, in 2015 Thanos also played a major role and starred in a head-to-head confrontation with God-Emperor Doom. Yeah Avengers: Secret Wars decides to explore this plot thread, perhaps there will be a new clash of titans with reunion of Robert Downey Jr. and Josh Brolin.
For now, this is all pure speculation. Collider indicates that Brolin refused to answer when asked if it was true that he was already in talks with Marvel Studios about his return, and that he was only coughing. Will there be a message between the lines? Or maybe the actor is trolling the press and the public? We shouldn’t be surprised if it was the latter. WITH Deadpool and Wolverine He did something similar when asked if he would return as Cable. At first he said “no”, and in the same answer he said “maybe” with a mischievous look. Lastly, his character was not part of the film.
Regarding Avengers: Secret Warsyou will have to arm yourself with patience. The film will be released in cinemas May 7, 2027; a little over a year later Avengers: Judgment Day (May 1, 2026).
