Josh Brolin / Deadpool 2
Josh Brolin went all out for his role as Cable in Deadpool 2, and the makeup team had their work cut out for them. The makeup designer Bill Corso said it was even more complicated than Deadpool’s look. They had to create a biomechanical body look that made it seem like Brolin was morphing into the character. Unlike the Terminator, Cable was infected with a disease that turned his skin into metal, so they had to make it look like he was constantly mutating.
It sounds like a tough job, but the final result was worth it! Josh Brolin’s transformation into Cable was a testament to the intricate artistry and creativity of the makeup team. The challenge of depicting Cable’s unique appearance, complete with the constant mutation, demonstrated their dedication to bringing this complex character to life on the big screen.
