    So let me get this straight, Harrison Ford who is a 1000 years old is going to be Hulk? What?

    What’s next? 50 year old Cate Blanchett playing a 20 year old Lilith from Borderlands? Oh wait…

      He’s replacing the late William Hurt. Red Hulk is always Thaddeus Ross, who’s older. Like, complain about something useful

        I didn’t know William Hurt had died. I’m now relived that Disney aren’t just being assholes about casting and sad to know why they recast Ross.

      I think he’s signed a deal. I have no evidence and this is a compete guess, but I think he’s agreed to let them use AI for his voice so that once he’s passed away they can keep using Red Hulk (in Hulk form at least) and his family can cash cheques.

    So the guy without superpowers but a shield and wings is fighting a Hulk? Cool. Cool cool cool cool.

    Funny enough, notorious penny pincher and all around asshole Ike Perlmutter demanded that Cap should fight the Hulk in Civil War because Mark Ruffalo was a lot cheaper than RDJ.

      Capetian America vs Iron Man makes so much more sense as a character conflict instead of just HULK SMASH.

      In the show Captain Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Falcon gets that new uniform. Before that he got the shield in the end of Avengers Endgame, becoming the new Captain America. I still think it should’ve been Bucky

        Everyone thinks it should have been Bucky. I fucking love Anthony Mackie but he just doesn’t feel right in that role to me.

          Bucky does not make sense to be cap. Even in the comics THE legacy cap is Falcon. And Falcons mentality in the MCU fits so much more with Steve’s ideology, Bucky does not

          I don’t. I love Bucky, but I don’t like him as the image that CA represents. Sam is so much better to me as that idealistic icon.

            Yeah.

            • Agent Coulson looks up to Captain America.
            • Bucky looks up to Captain America.
            • Black Window looks up to Captain America.
            • Captain America looks up to Sam Wilson.

            The next Captain America was always going to be Sam Wilson in the comics, and the MCU has followed closely enough that it would have been really weird to depart.

      Steve handed Falcon the shield at the end of Endgame. He spends a mini series with Bucky struggling with Cap’s legacy and if it’s right for him (or anyone) to take his place.
