Josh Brolin on “Weapons”, “Dunes 3” raises, and why he hates modern marketing

Josh Brolin had this type of profession most actors You can only dream. He did everything, where he worked with all the largest directors, writers and producers in Each type, from Western To science fiction and Back againsometimes Both at the same time. And when you talk to him, you feel this experience. That gravity. That experience. It is incredibly great, very impressive, slightly frustrated.

IO9 spoke to Broolin recently About his last movie, armsand It opens on August 8. It was written and directed by Zach Craigger, it is a story of how the city interacts when the entire semester disappears from children at night. Proline is Archer, the father of one of the boys, who makes his personal mission to know what happened. It was a role that Pedro Pascal was first attached, but he had to leak from him. Proline is not usually represented in the second option, so we talked about whether he has any hesitation in this role as well as what Cregger, which he reminds of other filmmaking legends.

From there, we touched on the marketing of the film, and its ideas about spoilers, as well as its participation (or its absence) with Dennis Felinov Sandin dunes: Part Three. It is true about Gooonies 2, cancellation External rangeAnd more. check it out.

GERMAIN LUSIER, IO9: Press notes for arms He said that you did not decide immediately, but you continued to return to it. What was the movie that made you finally decided to do this?

Josh Brolin: No, I think I am skeptical anyway. I mean, there are very few things in the past twenty years, such as (The Coen Brothers) or Denis, where it was, “Hey, do you want to do Sand dunes? We will send you the text program. “It was like,” Yes “before I read it. It was really taken in the design. Get out and Singer And all this kind of things, and mix it. And I think it is a timing. I don’t think they are all playing each other. Oh, we got this copies and all of that. But I believe that Zach is a unique and emotional man who uses the type of terror in his favor in many ways. Using his drawing comedy, and merged it in one way or another. It is a unique voice in a very tired type, or apparently tired.

IO9: I mentioned some of the great directors with whom I worked with. Although this is the second advantage of Zach, is there anything about it that makes you think that it can eventually reach this Coen and Denis Villeneuve brothers?

Proline: I mean, it reminds me of companies that it embraces absurdity. This idea embraces how we get our own way. How kind, because there is no better word, “stupid” sometimes, which makes it more difficult than it should be. This has nothing to do with children who disappear and all of this. But you have the character Julia (Garner), who is addicted to alcohol. You have the Eden (Ehrenreich) character, who will come out with this married woman. you know what i mean? It is like what we do to make chaos from our lives for what? I feel that we live a full life when we do the exact opposite. Then he takes this huge topic to what is the thing that you appreciate more, and what if it was taken away from you? Will you already rely on the self? Or you will have to work through all this chaos in order to reach a place of value yourself. Then if you recover this value, you suddenly treat it differently from what it was before. And I think this is what happens with Archer. He is a man in the end.

IO9: I have made a lot of movies, especially recently and this movie is not an exception, as you cannot really talk about many spoilers before the release. So I am curious, what are your feelings about this kind of fear of spoilers who have become very continuous in the past decade? Do you think knowing things in advance about the movie will destroy the experience?

Proline: I do. I think it is completely destroying your experience. This is a new thing. If you look back in some of the 1970s promoting the 1990s, it has created a mystery. The whole thing with public relations is that he pulled you and gave you hints about what it should have been. Then there were some, such as, saturation. It was almost like insecurity. It is like, “We don’t know what to do now, so we will show you the entire movie, and what is going on around it. We will destroy all spoilers, all this kind of things, then we expect you to see the movie.” meaningless. For this reason I love these trailers. It is not only the first trailer. There was humor, then there was a trailer, and then they started resorting to various invitations. It is great because taking a look at what happened. People embrace that. The views are a ton. And everyone talks about the movie like his own personality. It is a great type.

IO9: Yes, it’s. This actually leads me to another question. As a person who was working for a long time, do you enjoy, or have you enjoyed before, after marketing and public relations for a movie? After completing this, it explodes and made something else, then this entire team comes. Do you want to monitor and find yourself amazed at how to sell the films you are sold?

Proline: Yes, unfortunately I really enjoy it. I enjoy the commercial side of anything. People like, “Oh, work is not creative, and you are in creative work. You act, write, or you draw, and all of that.” I do not agree. I think the best businessmen I have seen and experience are the most creative people. The people who did not finish the college are usually. you know what i mean? It is just my experience. People who just said, “I don’t get what I need from this, and I will go to myself.” People are very excited. Self -motivation. So, I love this aspect of it. It is interesting. Social, it’s interesting. It is like reading the Malcolm Gladwell book.

IO9: I love it. Well, I have three unavoidable weapons questions. The first is Dennis just started Third sand dunes. Gurne is a large part of Third sand dunes. Can you say if you are in Third dunes, And if so, are you excited to return?

Proline: (Silence) No. Someone shakes their heads. no. I am not in Fourth dunes.

IO9: Well. Understand.

Proline: No, I don’t know. I mean … no, this is not true.

IO9: (Laughs)

Proline: I think it exists. I mean, if you are fulfilled, I am not there.

IO9: This is true. You are currently in Los Angeles. ((Note: This interview was on July 21.))

Proline: And if you check, I read I am in Third sand dunes. The fingers crossed.

IO9: Well, we hope you are. Warner Brothers officially has someone who writes Gooonies 2 The scenario for the first time. Looking at how this film became the beloved, if it succeeds and your personality is in it, would you have any fear that returns to that?

Proline: I would like.

IO9: Why is that?

Proline: Because I love Storms, (But) I have passed 41 years. Let it lie. I mean, no, I love the idea, but I don’t know. If they make one of them with different children, it will become a different thing, and I think it disturbs the original. I think people are enthusiastic, and the people who were in the original movie, feel excited about the ability to work with this group again because it was a great experience. Do I think it should be done? I don’t know, man. I just like it to stand as it does.

IO9: Last other thanarms The thing is that I am working on the science fiction site and we were really great External range Fans. Were you well with how it ended, leaving a lot of things open, or did you want to have more time with her?

Proline: I was angry when that happened. I did not agree because this offer has become better. If you look at it again, from a commercial feeling, and you look at it was like a 78 % approval classification at 92 %, and we do so with a budget less than this type of things, it makes sense to try to try and explore more. I love it was a big swing. I would like to get two seasons of it. I think there are great actors who have now (to great things). Look at what Luis Pullman does, see what IMOGEN POOTS does. I think it was stupid not to stick to some of these actors, but you make your decisions and continue, and hope for the best later. So we are good.

IO9: Yes, this is great. arms It allows us to see scenes from multiple views. I just spoke to Zach, and told me He was shot all of them at the same time. How does acting change at all in this scenario? Obviously, you are doing a lot of things, but is there a difference when you know that many of taking the same thing enter into the movie?

Proline: You are the first person to request it. Everything is written differently … So say we are doing the same, it’s not just once written, it is written twice, and I thought it would use one before. Just make a different angle on it, but he did not. So he wanted to be shot as it was written, which I appreciate. Surprise me! Because you go, “Oh, you did so already” and then wants to do it again, which I appreciate. But yes, he wants a different perspective as a different moment, I love it that it is a different performance and not just a different taking.

IO9: My last thing is, in the past two years, I have become a prolific author, from Sand dunes Poems to your notes. Do you have more writing in your future?

Proline: now. Now, yes. We will not work … I mean, we are lucky enough to work five jobs this year from June to June, then I will take the rest of the year and just write.

IO9: But not in the desert, though.

Proline: Not in the desert.
