Peter Dinklage and Josh Brolin to Play Brothers in Upcoming Comedy
By Hannah Wigandt
Peter Dinklage is trading in the serious part of Tyrion Lannister for something way more comedic in new movie Brothers, co-starring Josh Brolin.
The movie, just picked up by Legendary Entertainment, will be written by Etan Cohen, known for penning scripts for Tropic Thunder (2008) and Get Hard (2015).

Both Brolin and Dinklage are producing the movie, with Brolin through his company Brolin Productions and Dinklage through his company Estuary Films.
Not much is known about the comedy, just that the pair will be brothers. The film is rumored to pay homage to Twins, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito.
Both actors have major productions coming out in April. Brolin will be reprising his role as Thanos in Marvel's Avengers Endgame, and Dinklage will be sending his character Tyrion off in the last season of Game of Thrones.
