Bio

Being a son of actor James Brolin, Josh Brolin was doomed to Hollywood success as he definitely inherited his dad’s talent. He rose to prominence after starring in The Young Riders television series in 1989-1992 and in 2003, he had the lead part in Mister Sterling series.

Brolin made a big screen debut in 1985 movie The Goonies. Though, he is most famed worldwide due to his parts in No Country for Old Men, W., Milk, Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps, Gangster Squad, Oldboy, Inherent Vice, Sicario plus Everest. Additionally, he portrayed Thanos in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy and Avengers films.

Moreover, Josh is a screenwriter and director. He dealt with the production of The People Speak film. In 2010, he made a directorial debut with short film X.

Being the winner of Critics’ Choice, MTV Movie and TV plus SAG awards, Brolin was also a nominee for Oscar in 2009.

Apart from acting, Josh was also interested in stock trading in his 20s and earned much money. He was even a co-founder of a website dedicated to this topic. Moreover, in his spare time, Brolin loves racing cars and surfing.

In 1988, Josh Brolin got hitched to actress Alice Adair. They welcomed two children together, daughter Eden and son Trevor, but got divorced in 1994. In 2004, Josh tied knots with Diane Lane but their marriage was dissolved in 2013. Since 2016, the celebrity has been married to Kathryn Boyd. In 2018, their daughter Westlyn drew her first breath.

A curious fact: in youth, Josh wanted to become a chef. And actually, he is pretty good at cooking. Thus, while filming Labor Day in 2013, he and other members of the cast created their own chili recipe called Convict Chilli in honor of Brolin’s character. By the way, the recipe is available online.
