Making his debut as Agent K alongside Will Smith in Men In Black, Josh Brolin had a peculiar time off the screen with the actor.

“It’s like going to an&#8230;” &#8211; How Josh Brolin Described His Experience of Working With Will Smith on &#8216;Men in Black 3&#8217;

Men in Black is undoubtedly one of the most popular film series in Hollywood
today. Premiered back in 1997, the action comedy movie took the world by storm
and became massively popular among the audience. Not only did the Men in Black
franchise give us one of the best action films, but it also introduced some
incredible acting duos as well. One such iconic chemistry was between Will Smith
and Josh Brolin. And previously, Brolin had a peculiar way of describing his
experience of working with Smith.

Fans are no strangers to the fact that good chemistry between actors is a
prerequisite for a successful film. Many of you might not know, but Brolin
landed himself in the role of Tommy Lee Jones in a strange manner. Rather than
auditioning for the role, the actor once did a Tommy Lee Jones impression while
hanging out with director Barry Sonnenfeld. The actor managed to impress the
directors who later cast him as Agent K in the 2012 film Men In Black 3. Brolin
easily managed to gel in with the cast on the screens. However, the actor was
rather surprised by Smith’s behavior off-set.



As reported by the Independent, Josh Brolin in an interview opened up
[https://www.independent.ie/style/celebrity/brolins-drunk-lee-jones-impression/26858207.html]
about his experience of working alongside I Am Legend actor. The actor revealed,
“We’re waiting for rehearsal, try this voice and talk about it, whatever. He’s
like ‘M.I.B.!’ But at the same time, it’s just funny. It’s like going to an
insane asylum.”

Elsewhere, Brolin even recalled his first interaction with Smith on the set. The
actor revealed how the King Richard actor asked whether he did not like Smith,
to which Brolin replied that he did not have to like him. Interestingly, Brolin
added that he had not met the Men In Black star before saying yes to the movie.


WHY JOSH BROLIN DID NOT WANT TO CONTINUE WITH MEN IN BLACK?

Men In Black was one of the most successful films when it first premiered. Not
only was the film was one of Smith’s most profitable outings as an actor, but it
also had a huge box collection. However, soon after he joined the film, Josh
Brolin wanted to quit the film.



The actor previously revealed how he had a tough time initially while starting
out as Agent K. Brolin briefly felt that he could not do justice to the
character. However, it was natural for the American star to feel the pressure
owing to the standards the other actors set. Strange as it sounds, Smith once
put his life in danger to perform a stunt in one of the films

Furthermore, he even felt the pressure of matching the standards Tommy Lee Jones
set. However, the actor stuck to it and the rest is history.
