The reason Josh Brolin almost quit Ridley Scott’s new movie
- Josh Brolin initially wanted to quit Ridley Scott‘s upcoming film, The Dog Stars, after being unnerved by Scott’s unconventional, unrehearsed directing style during filming in Italy.
- Brolin called his agent to express his desire to leave the project, but was advised to rest for a day.
- His perspective shifted after Scott showed him footage of a dynamic scene he had filmed with co-star Jacob Elordi, which helped him understand the director’s approach.
- Brolin ultimately embraced the process, describing it as “stratospherically creative and dangerous,” and found it one of his most creatively satisfying projects.
- The Dog Stars, an apocalyptic drama about the aftermath of a deadly flu virus, is adapted from a 2012 novel by Peter Heller and is scheduled for release on August 28.
