Mark Ruffalo stepped in for the role of Hulk, aka Bruce Banner, in the MCU after Edward Norton’s stand-alone movie in 2008, The Incredible Hulk. The fans saw Mark’s Banner for the first time in The Avengers, and since then, he has appeared in several Marvel projects; while fans await his MCU return, he has shed some light on it. He was asked about Marvel’s upcoming film, Captain America: Brave New World, and his answer left the netizens in a frenzy.
Mark has appeared in the Avengers movies, including Thor: Ragnarok, and he was also seen in She-Hulk: Attorney At Law. The actor is infamous for unintentionally giving out spoilers like Tom Holland. He once accidentally live-streamed Thor: Ragnarok during its premiere on social media. The actor also reportedly spoiled Avengers: Endgame’s ending, too. He is a mess while keeping Marvel’s secrets, but people adore him, and he is a great actor. Scroll below for more.
Mark Ruffalo recently attended the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, where during the Q&A session, he was asked by the moderator whether he would appear in the next Marvel feature coming out in 2025, referring to Captain America: Brave New World. Ruffalo nodded his head affirmatively and said, ‘Yeah.’ The interviewer asked “Are you allowed to talk about that?” He responded, “Yeah,” and “It’s going to be great!” It excited the netizens that Mark would reprise his role as Hulk in the Anthony Mackie-led movie.
Netizens got excited about it, as one fan wrote on X, “We’re finally getting that hulk vs red hulk fight huh.”
Another quoted, “LETS GOOOOO MARK RUFFALO THE GOAT.”
One fan quipped, “Hopefully him and red hulk have a dope a*s fighting scene.”
Followed by, “Good! It made no sense to have General Ross and Betty Ross return without Bruce.”
And, “OG Hulk vs Red Hulk. We will be seated.”
Captain America: Brave New World will feature Thaddeus Ross, who transforms into Red Hulk in the comic books. Fans started hoping they would finally see Hulk vs Red Hulk in it. Harrison Ford will be seen in the role of President Ross. Now, Variety’s sources have revealed that Mark will not appear as Hulk in Captain America: Brave New World, and he misunderstood the question. He thought he agreed that it was one of the MCU’s upcoming films, not that he would be in it.
Mark Ruffalo also revealed speaking to Kevin Feige about a stand-alone Hulk movie but got turned down by him. He pitched an arc where Bruce Banner and Hulk goes from being at war to co-existing as one. He proposed this idea when Marvel’s boss asked, “What would you do if you had a stand-alone Hulk movie?”
He added, “I said, ‘I’d like to take him from this raging maniac to this integrated character.’” The actor continued, “And he said, ‘OK, we’ll do that over the course of four movies. We’ll never give you a stand-alone ‘Hulk.’” He said, “I don’t mean to burst anyone’s bubble, but that’s not happening.”
On the professional front, Mark Ruffalo was last seen in ‘Poor Things‘ and has been nominated for the Oscars for his performance.
