An actor who effortlessly taps into the heart of his empathic characters, Josh Brolin continues to challenge himself in a wide range of roles. Brolin is currently set to be seen in Brolin also stars in director Karen Moncreiff's ensemble thriller "The Dead Girl," opposite Toni Collette, Brittany Murphy, and James Franco. The Lakeshore production intertwines the lives of a group of people who don't realize they are involved in a scandalous murder investigation. Brolin also recently finished filming "No Country for Old Men," a feature from the Coen Brothers based upon the celebrated novel by Cormac McCarthy. Javier Bardem and Tommy Lee Jones round out the cast of McCarthy's western thriller.
Prior to his forthcoming roles, Brolin established himself as an actor willing to take on decidedly diverse roles in big budget blockbusters and smaller independent films. In 2005, Brolin starred alongside Jessica Alba and Scott Caan in director John Stockwell's "Into the Blue.” The film centers on a group of divers who find themselves in trouble with a drug lord (Brolin) after they come upon the illicit cargo of a sunken airplane. Brolin made his feature film debut starring in the action-comedy "Goonies," directed by Richard Donner for producer Steven Spielberg, and has since appeared in several successful films including: Paul Verhoven's blockbuster hit "Hollow Man," with Kevin Bacon, and Jim Stern's controversial film, "All The Rage," which made its debut at the 1999 Toronto Film Festival, featuring an all-star cast including Gary Sinise, Joan Allen, Giovanni Ribisi, and Anna Paquin; Fox Searchlight's "Best Laid Plans" opposite Reese Witherspoon and Alessandro Nivola, produced by Mike Newell. Brolin received critical acclaim and audience recognition in David O. Russell's "Flirting with Disaster," portraying a bisexual federal agent, torn between a love from the past and the reality of a current relationship. "Flirting with Disaster" featured an outstanding ensemble cast including Ben Stiller, Patricia Arquette, Tea Leoni, Mary Tyler Moore, George Segal, Alan Alda, Lily Tomlin and Richard Jenkins. Additional film credits include Victor Nunez's "Coastlines," which premiered at the 2002 Sundance Film Festival, opposite Timothy Olyphant; Scott Silver's "Mod Squad," opposite Claire Danes; Ole Bornedal's psychological thriller "Nightwatch," with Nick Nolte, Patricia Arquette, and Ewan McGregor; as well as Guillermo Del Toro's science-fiction thriller "Mimic," opposite Mira Sorvino, Jeremy Northam, and Charles Dutton. An accomplished stage actor, Brolin spent five years with Anthony Zerbe at the Reflections Festival at the GeVa Theatre in Rochester, New York. While there, he performed in and directed several of the festival's plays, including "Pitz and Joe," "Life in the Trees," "Forgiving Typhoid Mary," "Oh, The Innocents," "Peep Hole," and "Ellen Universe Joins the Band," "Lincoln Park Zoo" and "Hard Hearts.” Brolin also starred opposite Elias Koteas in the acclaimed Broadway production of Sam Shepard's "True West.”
In 2004, Brolin starred in the award-winning Off-Broadway play "The Exonerated," based on the true stories of a half-dozen former death row inmates. Directed by Bob Balaban, the play features a rotating ensemble cast and Brolin returned in 2006 for encore performances. Additional stage credits include "Skin of the Teeth," "The Crucible" and "A Streetcar Named Desire" at the Kennedy Memorial Theatre; "A Midsummer Night's Dream" at the Lebrero Theatre; and "Dark of the Moon" at the Ann Capa Ensemble Theatre. For television, Brolin made his mark as a series regular in the popular ABC series "The Young Riders," as well as "Private Eye" for NBC and "Winnetka Road" for CBS. Brolin also received critical acclaim in the TNT's epic miniseries "Into the West." "Into the West" follows stories from the American West in the 19th century as told from the perspective of two families, one of white settlers and one of Native Americans.
The epic treatment also stars Beau Bridges, Gary Busey and Jessica Capshaw. Prior to "Into the West," Brolin starred in the title role of NBC's political drama, "Mr. Sterling." The show followed the efforts of an idealistic young politician as he attempted to both learn and work within an often corrupt system. He also appeared in the CBS movie-of-the-week "Prison of Children” and in the Showtime original film "Gang In Blue" with Mario Van Peebles, J.T. Walsh and Stephen Lang. Brolin co-starred opposite Mary Steenburgen, Gretchen Mol and Bonnie Bedelia in CBS's "Picnic.” Directed by Ivan Passer, the drama is based on William Inge's Pulitzer Prize-winning play, where a handsome drifter comes into a small Kansas town, bringing emotional turmoil to all he encounters.
