Brutus was a man well-respected in Rome for his integrity and honour. His presence added credibility to the conspirators' cause. There was also the fact that his ancestor had in ancient times been one of the earliest tribunes, a staunch supporter of the liberty of the people and a fierce opponent of tyrants. Brutus's presence also gave their cause a kind of historical legitimacy.
basically the Romans loved brutus. so Cassius figured that if brutus was involved then the people would look at his death as something nobly done
Cassius knows that Brutus is a well-respected and influential man. The conspirators want as many powerful men on their side as they can get so that they can convince the public that they killed Caesar for good reasons. Also, Brutus is Caesar's closest friend, so Caesar would never suspect him of betrayal. Caesar is wary of Cassius, and might suspect that he would plot against him, but he trusts Brutus.
He needs Brutus because Brutus is publicly respected and highly thought of. If Brutus takes part in the killing, others will believe it is the right thing to do, and will respect the rest of the conspirators along with Brutus.
Cassius and Brutus were brothers-in-law, and were presumed to be close friends. Cassius trusted Brutus and wanted to let him in because he was close to Julius Caesar and could help guide their blades to him without suspicion.
It was not that Brutus was necessary for the conspiracy, even though, along with his brother-in-law Gaius Cassius Longinus, he was its leader. It was Julius Caesar giving the impression that he wanted to become a king which was necessary. It was this which persuaded the conspirators, including Brutus, to plot against Caesar. This would have ended the Roman Republic. Moreover, the republicans equated a king with tyranny.

It's a play. Not a book. Dummy.

Brutus & Cassius (Mainly)
yes Cassius forged letter and threw them in Brutus' house knowing that Brutus cares about the people and will join them. (this will bring the favor of Brutus and as Cassius believes the people) who will believe that Caesar's death was needed. The crowd is really dumb since they believe anyone who sounds convincing
Cassius!
Cassius and Brutus were the two co-leaders of the conspiracy against Caesar.

Marcus Brutus...was an idealist, supported one of Caesar's enemies at one time, feared Caesar's ambition, married to Portia. Caius Cassius...thin, quick-tempered, held a grudge against Caesar, Brutus' brother-in-law.
In Shakespeare's play, Cassius is sounding Brutus out to see if he is sympathetic to the plot against Caesar.
