Mark Ruffalo Confirms Hulk For Captain America: Brave New World

Hulk vs Red Hulk?

Ruffalo was asked if he had any inputs into the scripts and explained that he told Kevin Feige he wanted to take the Hulk from a “raging maniac” to an “integrated character.” So Feige told him they can do that throughout the course of four movies.

Regarding a Hulk solo movie, Ruffalo again said it’s not happening and that he was told not to talk about it.

For Captain America: Brave New World, it was remarked to Ruffalo that he has that next which he confirmed.

“Yeah,” said Ruffalo.

When asked if he was allowed to talk about that, he replied to laughter, “Yeah, it’s going to be great
 They literally have a drone that follows me around. My phone right now is recording all of this.”

You can watch the footage below.

Update: Oddly enough, Variety is stating Ruffalo is wrong:

Alas, according to multiple sources, Ruffalo is not actually going to be in “Brave New World.” Instead, he misspoke, thinking he was agreeing that “Brave New World” is one of Marvel’s next films, not that he was going to be in it.
