As someone who thoroughly enjoyed Brolin’s performance as Cable, this news is both exciting and bittersweet.
Josh Brolin’s portrayal of Cable, the time-travelling mutant soldier, was a standout in Deadpool 2.

The actor also touched on the growing complexities of scheduling and the vast array of projects in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. “There’s so much going on in the Marvel world, and sometimes things just don’t align the way you hope,” he explained. “But who knows? The multiverse opens up endless possibilities.”
