New Jonah Hex Photo With Josh Brolin
By Krystal Clark
An official photo has been released for the DC Comics based film, Jonah Hex. It stars Josh Brolin as the title character who’s a gunslinger in the Old West. The film’s directed by Jimmy Hayward and will also feature Megan Fox and Michael Fassbender. Over at Omelete they’ve posted the new image that gives us a nice silhouette of Mr. Hex.
Check out the full photo below…
The biggest characteristic of Jonah Hex is his face. It’s unique in a very unconventional way, because half of it looks like it’s been melted off. Even though various paparazzi shots have popped up online showing Brolin in full make up on set, Warner Bros has been hiding it throughout their promotion. In the teaser poster for the film his disfigured side is slightly exposed but you don’t see the bottom half of his face at all.
In this latest image, we get to see his mouth with that uncomfortable pull of skin that would make anyone’s stomach curl. Brolin’s head is titled down so you can’t see his eyes, which plays against the look of the first poster. It seems like they only want to show certain parts of his face at a time, so perhaps down the line they’ll do a full reveal.
Here’s the poster…

What do you think of new photo?

I like how they're teasing it. It's a major part of his character, why he's not the same Confederate soldier before his disfigurement and why he's a man of his own principles after. His disfigurement sometimes plays in some stories where it makes him difficult to trust or to be grateful to, and even for readers his countenance is a little off putting, so it's like teasing the Superman or Spider-Man logo.

Interesting that Brolin isn't wearing a CGI-patch. Or maybe he just takes it off between takes.
