Did Anthony Mackie Just Accidentally Confirm That An OG Avenger Will Appear In Captain America: Brave New World?

As a longtime Marvel fan with over two decades of comic book reading and movie-watching under my belt, I must say that the recent comments by Anthony Mackie about The Hulk’s potential appearance in “Captain America: Brave New World” has me both excited and skeptical.


1. The first sneak peek for “Captain America: Brave New World” has shed light on several mysteries and supported many speculations about the upcoming Marvel film. However, it’s probable that there are still plenty of surprises in store. It’s plausible that Anthony Mackie may have accidentally exposed one of these major plot twists, similar to Tom Holland. Some intriguing remarks suggest that characters from “The Incredible Hulk” movie, including Hulk himself, might be included in the cast for “Captain America: Brave New World.”

In a chat with Entertainment Weekly (shared on Twitter), Anthony Mackie was questioned about how The Hulk fits into the storyline of Brave New World, given the numerous supporting characters from The Incredible Hulk movie are now appearing in the latest Captain America film. Mackie clarified that the storyline from the Hulk movie doesn’t directly apply to the new film, but he hinted that Hulk might make an appearance in the movie. Take a listen to what Mackie said and make your own interpretation.

1. It’s not entirely unexpected that Mackie’s comments indicate The Incredible Hulk might appear in “Captain America: Brave New World.” This is because we know actors like Liv Tyler and Tom Blake Nelson, who were last seen in the MCU during “The Incredible Hulk,” will return for an upcoming MCU film. Having Betty Ross without Bruce Banner would feel a bit unusual.

1. It’s unclear if Anthony Mackie is hinting at the physical appearance of Hulk or just his relevance to the plot. Since we know Red Hulk will appear in “Brave New World”, it’s likely the character will be mentioned even if he doesn’t appear physically. The Hulk concept will still play a role in the story, and Mackie might have been speaking about something else when interrupted by Harrison Ford, causing some confusion.

In the context of “Brave New World”, the reappearance of the Hulk – last portrayed by Mark Ruffalo within the Marvel Cinematic Universe during the “She-Hulk: Attorney At Law” series – would undeniably create a significant impact. The series also introduced Hulk’s son, a detail that could potentially influence the character’s role in future storylines.

The upcoming movie “Captain America: Brave New World” is yet to reveal its release date, but if Hulk is set to reappear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), an official announcement may not be far behind. Though no news was shared during the recent SDCC Marvel event, Marvel still has a chance to update us at the Disney Studios presentation scheduled for the next two weeks. We might learn more there.
