With its Valentine’s Day release fast approaching, a new international poster for Marvel Studios’ Captain America: Brave New World has arrived online, pitting Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson against Harrison Ford’s Red Hulk. Check it out below, along with comments from director Julius Onah as he discusses introducing the Red Hulk into the MCU…
“I’ve gotta tell you, when Red Hulk first became a possibility in this film, I just smiled,” director Julius Onah tells Fandango. “I was smiling like a kid. That was when I knew this was the idea and the right moment to put him out there in the world.”
“Having an actor like Harrison Ford play Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross knowing that he’s going to have scenes with Anthony Mackie…the Hulk character is such this expression of id but there’s something about, especially a rage Hulk, that is so relatable and exciting for the audience,” he continues. “There’s also a real thematic core when it comes to the expression of anger in this film and what it means for the conflict at the centre of this film.”
