Josh Brolin: His Wild Childhood, ‘The Goonies’, and Trading Stocks to Survive Before ‘No Country for Old Men’

  • Summary

  • Josh Brolin (Dune, Avengers, Sicario) knows what it’s like to fall, rise, and live to tell the story.

    From his chaotic childhood on a horse ranch in California to teen stardom in 'The Goonies' to two decade without a big acting role, Josh pulls back the curtain on family, creativity, and a life driven by "insatiable curiosity".

    Plus: how he found other ways to support himself while waiting for the right role; a career-defining audition where directors praised the lighting but ignored him; and why he calls his 50's his "F It" decade.

    You can buy Josh's memoir 'From Under the Truck' here.
