8 Actors Who Were Sadly Wasted In DC Movies

Josh Brolin is about to get his due in a superhero movie in the upcoming Avengers: Infinity War two-parter, in which he plays big bad the Mad Titan Thanos. After several cameo appearances in previous films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he will finally get to show us what he can do beneath the heavy CGI.

Let’s just hope it turns out better than the last comic book film role Brolin played with his face obscured. The actor was a perfect fit for the titular western anti-hero in 2010’s Jonah Hex – unfortunately, he was stuck in a terrible movie. If the film had been better, Brolin no doubt would have shined in the lead role. As it was, though, the actor had to take one for the team and ended up being lumbered with carrying this dead weight of a comic book adaptation.
