Mark Ruffalo Teases A More "Complex" Arc For Banner/Hulk In AVENGERS: AOU

Many felt that Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner/Hulk was the standout of Joss Whedon's first Avengers, and the actor has said in the past that we can expect more from him in the sequel. Now while talking to Total Film, Ruffalo expands on that, and also talks about "embracing" the mo-cap work.

Mark Ruffalo has already hinted that we'll be seeing a bit more of him in Joss Whedon's Avengers: Age Of Ultron, and now he elaborates during an interview with Total Film magazine. The actor says Bruce Banner will have a bigger, more complex role -- might he be referring to that rumored love interest? Or perhaps that this time The Hulk will serve as a temporary antagonist to the rest of the team, as evidenced by the concept art below.


"[My role's] even bigger than last time, and it's more complex and it has more layers and a bit more arc.  Not only that, but it seems that the motion capture process is becoming a whole lot more agreeable second time around. "I'm really tripping on the technology of this motion-capture stuff… now I just completely embrace it and see it as this other exciting place we can go as performers."

Whatever form this larger role will take, I think most of us will agree that more Hulk can only be a good thing. It's also great to hear that Ruffalo is getting more used to the motion-capture technology which brings the Green Goliath to life. What do you guys think we'll see from Banner/Hulk in the Avengers sequel?

The Banner/Stark bromance was a defining moment in the first movie. I wanna see them have more great scenes together.

Hulk needs a movie or at least, appear in someone else's. Marvel should work out a deal w/ Sony to have Spidey appear in an Avengers movie and have Hulk appear in a Spidey movie.

They're definitely going to be the main keys in taking down Ultron.

Hulk was the standout, Bruce Banner was not. Still feel Hulk did nothing "incredible" in which a lot claim. His role in the character was akin to almost everyone else; enjoyable.

My favorite part of the movie isn't even Hulk, it's how (A-bit) subtle Joss put on the emphasis of Avenging something or someone. But of course now everytime I watch the movie the emotion and depth of them finally becoming a team is cheapened since Coulson is brought back to life.

Do you guys think we're ever going to see the Banner that's mostly depicted in the comics and etc. the one that always struggles to keep in the Hulk and has physiological problems or is this MCU Banner already set and has the Hulk under control for good

Mark Ruffalo is a good actor, but not in Avengers...he f.ucking sleepwalks through that movie. So hopefully in the second one we'll see some acting.
