Josh Brolin Unhappy With DEADPOOL 2 Performance; Hopes To Redeem Himself In X-FORCE

Josh Brolin was praised for his performance in Deadpool 2 but it doesn't sound as if the Avengers: Infinity War actor had the best of times playing the time-travelling mutant in the sequel based on remarks made during a recent interview. He doesn't elaborate on why but did explain that starring opposite Ryan Reynolds is what helped him to really embrace the character as shooting continued.

"[Then] it clicked," he explains. "I got to know [Reynolds] better. I trust him more. And we started this volley where it was like, ‘This is actually fun.'" Brolin went on to say that he wasn't actually happy with his performance and that he's anxious to redeem himself when he reprises the role in X-Force.


"I do like the way it turned out. But I thought I could have been better," he explains. "Thank God. Man. I literally want to redeem myself to myself. I want to do a better version of what I do." Whether or not he'll get the chance remains to be seen, especially as there's a slim chance that X-Force will never happen due to the impending Disney/Fox merger. For now, we'll all just have to wait and see...

I wasn't too keen on it either. Nothing against him though. He did a great job. Just wasn't my cup of tea.

Hoping he kills it in X-Force!
