“I like to see what they are up against and the way they negotiate and work their way through it,” he continued. “They enjoy it more. We were more uptight and it had to be about acting… like, you didn’t sell out, you didn’t sell out. But now it’s like, ‘We can be artists in many different arenas, so let’s do it and let’s enjoy it.’”

“But they also get caught up in you ‘have to have a franchise’ or ‘have to have a superhero.’ But I keep saying, ‘Don’t! Don’t! They’ll die,’” Brad said.

While brad had a small cameo in Deadpool 2, he has never starred in a superhero movie and the only franchise he’s been in is the Ocean’s Eleven series.

That being said, Brad does have a major sequel in the works right now!
