Chris Evans apologized to Josh Brolin's dad, James Brolin, for defeating Thanos in Avengers: Endgame. It has been more than three years since the Infinity Saga culminated and while the Marvel Cinematic Universe moves forward with Phase 4, the 2019 Joe and Anthony Russo-directed Endgame remains a favorite for fans to revisit. The film features a lot of iconic moments for Earth's Mightiest Heroes and, of course, the fall of the Mad Titan Thanos after an epic battle.

In the animated project, he faces off against Zurg, voiced by James Brolin, and the pair had a very interesting first encounter as they talked about Josh Brolin's Thanos.
