Josh Brolin, who is playing the mad titan Thanos in the upcoming “Avengers: Infinity War” said the upcoming superhero mega pic will be like “The Godfather.”
In a recent interview with Collider, when asked how was it like to work with “Infinity War” directors the Russo Brothers, Brolin said, “Look, I got Joe Russo who’s constantly resourcing like ‘The Godfather’ and, ‘You have a gun to his fucking head.’ I’m like, ‘I love you so much.”
Brolin added, “The fact that you’re taking an ‘Avengers’ scenario and you’re turning it into a ‘Godfather’ thing for us to be able to kind of hang our hat on is great, and to emotionalize the whole thing.”

In terms of the massive undertaking to put every actor who ever starred in a Marvel movie into “Infinity War,” Brolin said, “This is a one-time deal. To put this many successful actors together is such a pain in the ass, but it’s been worth it.”
“We’re doing two movies. One back-to-back, and this is it for us. Then we’ll go off in another direction, but this is a very, very, very ambitious project that I think is going to pay off in a big way.”
“Avengers: Infinity War” opens May 4, 2018.
