Josh Brolin Praises Zach Cregger's 'Weapons' as Fresh Content 🎬

Josh Brolin was looking for something he'd never done before. Talking with Collider's Steve Weintraub, he admits, "When I saw Barbarian, I was like, 'Yeah, I really liked it, but I don't know why.'" Something about Zach Cregger's 2022 horror lingered with the actor, and after consulting with his daughter, it was clear that this "young man" might be the answer to his content-overhaul fatigue. When he joined the filmmaker's sophomore feature, Weapons, he was proven correct.

In the movie, Brolin plays Archer Graff, a man outraged by the 17 Maybrook children who mysteriously went missing at 2:17 a.m. Even more peculiar is that all 17 kids belonged to the classroom of Justine Gandy (Julia Garner), and all of them seemingly left their homes and ran through the streets of their own accord. Weapons also stars Alden Ehrenreich (Ironheart), Benedict Wong (Doctor Strange), and Austin Abrams (Euphoria).

In this interview, Brolin also talks about how he had a similar reaction to Weapons as he did with No Country for Old Men, why it's the perfect cure for boredom, and challenging Cregger on set. He also shares updates for his dream director lineup coming up, with Rian Johnson's Wake Up Dead Man, Edgar Wright's The Running Man, Ridley Scott's The Dog Stars, and more.
