With Deadpool & Wolverine set to bridge the gap between the Fox X-Men movies and the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), the film is expected to reintroduce a TON of characters.
As the list of cameos continues to grow, fans are understandably excited to see the characters that have defined the superhero genre for the last two decades return.
Interestingly, despite the fact that he was a main character in Deadpool 2, one character who will not be returning for the franchise’s MCU debut is Josh Brolin’s Cable.

Brolin is, of course, no stranger to the MCU, having portrayed Thanos in both Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.
Brolin Confirms He Will Not Return For ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’
Despite what IMDB might say, Brolin has confirmed that he will not be appearing in Deadpool & Wolverine.
During a recent interview on The Playlist’s Bingeworth podcast about his series Outer Range, Brolin once again confirmed he will not be reprising his role as Cable, despite how much he wanted to.

“[Marvel] is a more complex labyrinth than ‘Outer Range’ will ever be, my friend,” he said.
“And I will never know where that went or what that is or what I’m involved with or what I’m not involved with —the MCU being involved now. Cable was a lot of fun. I really liked doing that role. That was a lot of fun.”
Why Omit Cable?
At this time, it is unclear if Marvel shied away from having Brolin return as Cable because of his previous appearance as Thanos or if it was simply a story decision.

Either way, with so many actors confirmed to be returning for Deadpool & Wolverine, it is both surprising and disappointing to hear that we will not see Cable.
