Actor: Josh Brolin

Josh Brolin was in The Goonies at seventeen and then spent two decades in work that went nowhere before No Country for Old Men, Milk and W in a single stretch reset his standing entirely.

Milk earned him a Best Supporting Actor nomination, playing Dan White as a man drowning in resentment he cannot articulate.

He then became Thanos across four Marvel films, an entirely motion-captured performance, and Cable in Deadpool 2 in the same year.

Sicario and Inherent Vice are the ones to seek out, and he is the son of James Brolin, which he has said helped him not at all.
