“Dune: Part Two” Star Josh Brolin Is An Accomplished Writer And Poet

[@jennalonsdale3629]

I would legitimately listen to Josh Brolin describe movie plots for hours

Josh Brolin and Jeff Bridges: the stars of gruffness and down to earth

[@rickymartin4457]

I love the fact that Josh Brolin in real life loves poetry just as much as Gurney Haleck in Dune, like, what the hell? Haha

[@antoniodominguezjr4734]

Is liking poetry uncommon or surprising ever?

[@rickymartin4457]

@@antoniodominguezjr4734 I'd say yes. Depending on which people you surround yourself with, you may think it's normal, sure.

[@LindaC616]

​@rickymartin4457 yes, but actors have time to read and theater actors probably have more respect for poetry than TV or film actors

[@rickymartin4457]

@@LindaC616 That's fair. Though don't forget, I don't know in Brolin's case, but a lot of film actors do have a theater background

[@LindaC616]

@rickymartin4457 sure, people like Brolin. But if you look at a gazillion others (Depp, Lohan, Pratt, Hemsworth, Swank) most of them aren't heavily involved in theater. Shakespeare is poetry, after all

Josh Brolin has aged like a fine wine, better and better as the years go on. He is not only a brilliant actor, but an incredibly charming and extremely funny guy. He is also unimaginably intelligent, well read and well spoken. I have watched inteviews of this guy and he will give the most thoughtful and thought provoking response to one question and the next have you rolling on the floor with laughter. Such a materclass of sharp wit and rugged relatability. Absolutely love this guy.

❤...."Don't shirk off the responsibility of your Art." God bless you, Stephen. James wasn't upset for Stephen saying that, these two men have an easy and extraodinary rapport. I really enjoy every visit he makes to the show because he is right down to earth, his sense of humour is fabulous. James is well grounded, as is Stephen; the genuine friendship and warmth they share is beautiful. I'd pay to go watch James and Stephen carry on for 90 minutes....somewhere that serves cocktails😊

[@Malevolent__1]

I absolutely LOVE Josh and Stephen together!! Josh is one of the realest dudes ever!

[@paulhellewell9468]

To be a fly on the wall when these two are away from the cameras. You all know just how much they care for each other but they come at it completely their own way. The fact that they went to high five then shake all at the same time but in the end it all came together. Watch them again, it's so cool to be uncool.

[@RazgrizAce67]

I am sooooo excited for this movie! I love Dune so much and so happy that it is being put to film in such an amazing way.

[@payasamariposa]

This interview brought me back to the days of Johnny Carson and Burt Reynolds and their hilarious and mischievous repartee. Yes, I’m that old, but I began watching them as a kid and thanks to the magic of KZbin, I have the chance to watch them again. Actually, I’m just a few months older than Colbert. I was laughing out loud during this display of shenanigans by Stephen and Josh. Well done. 😂❤

[@kmac2765]

You’re right thanks for reminding me, I wouldn’t have thought of that here’s to the good old days :)

[@PippisMom]

Whipping cream war.

[@DNTXPCTMCH]

Thank you both for your emotional intelligence. Thank you for sharing your friendships.😂😂❤

James Brolin, Capricorn One. Son Josh, I cannot think of any bad Television or Cinematic roles by this gentleman. Brilliant Actor, ranwith his Father's legacy and took it to incredible heights 🙏🏽🙏🏼🙏🏽

[@alexcruzpr]

I just fell in love with Mr Brolin

[@CosmicNomad]

This song was my favorite in Dune2, it’s kinda the love theme of Dune2. This guitar cover is beautiful as well!! Bravo!

[@dianewilliams1125]

I couldn't imagine anyone but Sir Patrick Stewart being Gurney,but Josh did it! Ive been a Dune lover since the 70s! ❤❤❤

[@Japan_of_Green_Gables]

I say this with the utmost respect... this might be the only time I've heard someone speak positively of the 80's Dune movie. That said, it's hard not to speak positively of Patrick Stewart. Incredible actor.

[@dianewilliams1125]

@@Japan_of_Green_Gables I agree! I was nervous about who was going to play Duncan. In the 80s movie is was the worst actor ever! He looked nothing as he was described in the books. No shock of goat black hair,no height,no muscles, nothing! I know Herbert was being an advisor but he must have been asleep on that one. Jason is a better choice! Looking forward to seeing him as a ghola!

If I were Denis.. I'd put that synopsis on the DVD box.

"DUNE 2 release is less than TWO WEEKS!!! Robot Lady and Wonka fall in love. Then Elvis tries to fuck it all up while his bad dad floats in a pool of pond scum. The WWE dude from Gardians gets super pissed while Midsomer hottie puts the eyes on Wonka Obi Wan just after his Mom gets caught taking LSD in a sandy bathroom. Chigurh still doesnt like the guy from The Goonies. I mean who doesn't want to see all that on IMAX??? The pandemic as we knew it is over. Strikes have come and gone. Fuck it. It's time to commune again and experience that amazing feeling of when the lights go down, you have your hand deep in your Popcorn worm, and DUNE 2 consumes you."

Sadly, Josh was physically abusive in his marriage to Diane Lane. 😢

[@MyNameIsRow01]

having already seen the movie, that description is very accurate

[@jprsfragoso]

Oh, he's an accomplished writer alright... specially a poet. Also, Timothée Chalamet would like a word

[@blakberi]

Nerd alert: I always thought Josh would have been my Duncan Idaho (because of what comes next for that character) rather than Gurney Halleck, but I am still glad he is part of this film series. Not seen Part 2 as of writing this (tomorrow)

[@DeathlyTired]

Saying a Haiku is '5, 7, 5' is like saying you make a TV show by hiring some cameras.

Could you elaborate?

Yes you are _terribly_ sophisticated.

The pandemic's not over, we're in the largest wave since Omicron. Just because the president says it's over doesn't make it true.

Lol there is no more pandemic, even here in Canada. They stopped giving out vaccines and the people who made the masks and shots are suing the government for loss of funds.
