Marvel<\/a> fans may not have to wait too much longer to see Thanos<\/a><\/strong> return to the MCU<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Josh Brolin<\/a> played Thanos in the MCU for several years, with the character serving as the main antagonist in 2018\u2019s Avengers: Infinity War and 2019\u2019s Avengers: Endgame<\/a>. Thanos died at the end of Avengers: Endgame; however, thanks to the rules of the multiverse, many fans have suspected he could return in some capacity in future projects. Brolin has, for example, returned to voice the character in a handful of What If\u2026? episodes.<\/p>\n

What did Josh Brolin say about Thanos returning to the MCU?<\/p>\n

Speaking with Entertainment Tonight<\/a>, Brolin addressed a potential MCU return for Thanos.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf Joe Russo comes to me \u2014which he may have. I don\u2019t know. And has an idea, then I might acquiesce,\u201d Brolin said. \u201cProbably pretty quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n

At this time, there\u2019s been no confirmation that Brolin will return as Thanos in a future Marvel Studios<\/a> project. Having said that, Joe and Anthony Russo are now directing two new Avengers movies, Avengers: Doomsday<\/a> and Avengers: Secret Wars<\/a>. While Robert Downey Jr.\u2019s Doctor Doom will be the villain in those movies, many are expecting an iconic moment from the Secret Wars comic involving Doom and Thanos could be part of one of those forthcoming movies.<\/p>\n

Avengers: Doomsday is currently slated to be released on December 18, 2026, while Avengers: Secret Wars follows on December 17, 2027. Spider-Man 4, also known as Spider-Man: Brand New Day, will be released before both of those movies on July 31, 2026.<\/p>\n

Brolin, meanwhile, is now starring in Edgar Wright\u2019s remake of The Running Man, which arrives in United States theaters this coming weekend. He\u2019ll also soon be reprising his role as Gurney Halleck in Denis Villeneuve\u2019s third Dune movie, Dune: Part Three, which is expected to arrive in December 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Marvel fans may not have to wait too much longer to see Thanos return to the MCU.
