Mark Ruffalo Talks Possibly Returning As 'The Hulk' In CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR

It's been rumored that Captain America: Civil War will have a Hulk, albeit with a different identity, but Mark Ruffalo has finally discussed whether or not his Green Goliath will be showing up. Check it out!

In addition to William Hurt's unexpected return as General Thaddeus Ross, it was a cryptic tweet by Mark Ruffalo last month that has fueled speculation that the Avengers star will be Hulking out amid the superhero battle in Captain America: Civil War. There has since been rumors that a different Hulk will be making an appearance given Age of Ultron left Bruce Banner's current whereabouts up in the air (literally), but Ruffalo finally addressed the possibility while promoting his latest indie film.

“I don’t know! I heard a rumor about that the other day,” said Mark Ruffalo when The Daily Beast asked flat-out if his Jade Giant will return in Captain America: Civil War. “I haven’t seen a script, nobody’s told me, and I don’t have dates. But I can only hope so! I was talking to Robert Downey the other day, and he said, ‘Ruffalo! I heard you’re coming out here,’ and I said, ‘OK! I’ll be there,’” If anyone can get Mark Ruffalo in Civil War, it's Robert Downey Jr. However, it's hard to imagine there being enough room for the Incredible Hulk to return in the 2016 Marvel threequel.

Anyhow, Mark Ruffalo later talked about the joys of being a part of Marvel Studios and  its global reach. “I like the challenge of it,” Mark Ruffalo explained. “I like the cultural significance of it, as an art project. It’s crossing into all kinds of cultures, and belief systems, and ideologies. It’s hitting a lot of boxes, and really specialized boxes, too. And ultimately, the messaging of it is pretty good! It has a decency about it. I always feel like this is our modern mythology, in a way. We’ve been doing this since the time we could draw on cave walls. This is our version of it now, but we’re still working out the same stuff—violence, brotherhood, and more.” What do you think?


Directed by Anthony & Joe Russo from a screenplay by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely, Captain America: Civil War picks up where Avengers: Age of Ultron left off, as Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain. Starring Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Paul Bettany, Jeremy Renner, Don Cheadle, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd, Chadwick Boseman, Emily VanCamp, Daniel Brühl, Frank Grillo, William Hurt, and Martin Freeman, Captain America: Civil War is set for release on May 6, 2016.

He doesn't need to be in it, but it would be nice to have more Hulk since we won't be getting a solo film with Mark. At least anytime soon.

By this point they could certainly have Hulk show up and save the day, or ruin the day, or just help in some form, and then just run away afterwards. He could show up and disappear, without having to see Banner necessarily. He can still kind of be a hero in the shadows, so to speak.

He crashed in the ocean and died from a broken heart because he had to leave Black Widow behind.

actually we don't need to see Hulk in Civil War. Banner pushed to the edge would be even better.

I want them to explore the narrative between Hulk and Banner more, because I don't think we know how much control Banner really has over the Hulk, he can change into the Hulk at will but his problem is that he can't calm himself down

I think it would be cool to explore what's going on in Banner's head when he's the Hulk, they've touch on this a lot in the comics, it would be cool if they could figure out a way to incorporate that into the movies

If I remember correctly Hulk didn't really play into Civil War, so it will be neat to see what part he plays in it.

Cameo would be nice, wouldn't be fair in a fight if Thor isn't involved though

I hope if he is in it they make it a surprise. Very few surprises in movies now a days.

@dethpillow

Totally, horror and philosophy, I like that, a lot. It's true too, and that whole Hulk/Banner dynamic is awesome. I think that's where the real story hides, they just need to find a way to tap into it in the movies.

It's such a cool concept too, like if you imagine yourself, the angriest you've ever been, full throttle, no brakes, adrenaline to the max and then you have to try and concentrate on a conversation or something, or concentrate on morals, it's craziness.

the registration act probably gives Ross permission to hunt him again. So they can keep him in a special prison like Abomination, until they need him or something.

And, yes!! Rick Jones

I think they could still add Rock Jones as a character if they wanted, I hope they do that
