Josh Brolin confirms he will return for Dune 2 with a funny story about IMDb. Brolin is known for his performances in Milk, Inherent Vice, No Country for Old Men, and as Thanos in the MCU.

Dune, based on the novel by Frank Herbert, follows Paul Atreides (Timothee Chalamet) and his family after they are thrust into a war for the deadly and highly coveted planet Arrakis. Brolin plays Gurney Halleck, the weapons master of House Atreides and a mentor to Paul, who was last seen in the first Dune taking on a legion of invading Harkonnen soldiers, leaving his fate unknown. Dune 2is highly anticipated after the first film grossed over $400 million at the box office and won six Oscars.
