Hey Marvel Studios — still loving the multiverse chaos? Good. Because there’s one cosmic-level opportunity you’re completely missing:
Josh Brolin. As Thanos. In a comedy cameo. Again.
Yes, yes, the Mad Titan already had his moment with the Infinity Gauntlet. But picture this: a non-canon multiversal one-shot, where Thanos isn’t busy wiping out half the cosmos — he’s dealing with something far scarier: feelings. And maybe an annoyingly chatty red-suited mercenary who also wants to date his lady.
Let’s talk about comedy, meta humor, and the most toxic love triangle in the Marvel universe.
🎭 1. Josh Brolin Already Exists in This Cinematic Multiverse
Let’s recap: Brolin has already played Cable and Thanos. That’s two powerful, brooding, ultra-masculine, battle-scarred warriors… played by the same guy.
With the multiverse wide open, there is no excuse not to leverage this. It’s the perfect time to blur those timelines, bend reality, and throw fans a purple surprise when they least expect it.
💀 2. Let’s Talk About Lady Death
Remember her? The skeletal embodiment of mortality? The one that Thanos canonically wants to date?
In Marvel Comics, there’s an actual love triangle between:
- Thanos, the lovesick Titan willing to obliterate galaxies for her approval,
- Lady Death, who basically ghosts him,
- And a certain regenerating degenerate who actually gets her attention.
Yes — the Merc with a Mouth stole Lady Death’s heart. And if that isn’t the perfect setup for a spite-fueled comedy cameo by Brolin’s Thanos, what is?
💜 3. Thanos Is Ripe for Comedy
He’s got the look. He’s got the power. He’s got the… obsession with balance that low-key screams “therapy overdue.”
Now imagine this:
- Thanos at a group therapy session.
- Thanos crashing a date between Death and her new favorite antihero.
- Thanos trying to use the Soul Stone as a dating app.
Tell me this doesn’t write itself.
⏳ 4. The Multiverse Is the Ultimate Cheat Code
Canon is optional. Logic is optional. Audience buy-in? Already secured. With multiversal storytelling, any version of Thanos — tragic, comedic, romantic, even “Florida-retired” Thanos — is fair game.
So bring him back. Even just for a minute. Let him scowl, sulk, make a joke, and disappear into a portal muttering about heartbreak and chimichangas.
🔥 5. The Internet Would Explode
A surprise Josh Brolin-Thanos cameo in a meta Marvel comedy? With a Lady Death reference? And maybe a jab at Cable for good measure?
Guaranteed meme storm.
Fandom gold.
Social media chaos.
Which, ironically, is exactly what Thanos wanted.
🎤 Final Thought: Don’t Let This Be the One That Got Away
You’ve got the actor. You’ve got the canon. You’ve got the fans begging for it.
All that’s left is one snap (of the scriptwriter’s fingers) to make it real.
Do it for Thanos. Do it for Death.
Do it for the fans who deserve to see purple rage meet romantic rejection.
