Josh Brolin says he’s just as shocked as anyone to find out he was listed as part of the cast for ‘Deadpool & Wolverine.’
Brolin recently talked about his upcoming projects on a podcast called Bingeworthy TV. The topic shifted to his role as Cable and the upcoming ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ movie. Brolin was surprised to hear that his name actually appears on the film’s IMDb page, but it seems he won’t be in it:
“Am I? Yes! I so wanted to be in that movie. … [Marvel] is a more complex labyrinth than ‘Outer Range’ will ever be, my friend. And I will never know where that went or what that is or what I’m involved with or what I’m not involved with — the MCU being involved now. Cable was a lot of fun. I really liked doing that role. That was a lot of fun.”
Brolin also spoke about his role in ‘Outer Range.’ It’s a TV show blending Western and Sci-Fi elements and is available on Prime Video.
Brolin Remains a Fan of the Franchise
The actor seems disappointed about not being part of the new ‘Deadpool’ movie, but he has no hard feelings. He praised Hugh Jackman and said his performance in ‘Logan’ was quite remarkable:
“Hugh [Jackman], I’m absolutely in love with. I know Ryan [Reynolds] now, and I’ve met Hugh a couple of times, and I think when he did ‘Logan’ — forget it! I mean, Scott Frank, who wrote it, is a good friend of mine and I just think the coming together of [these characters] is just fantastic. And Hugh, I don’t know how old Hugh is now — is he 56, 57? I mean, seriously, the dude doesn’t age. So, yeah. I’m a big fan of his.”
‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ is set to hit theaters on July 26, and the second season for ‘Outer Range’ will premiere on May 16 on Prime Video.
