Captain America: The Winter Soldier’s Frank Grillo says Crossbones could take on The Hulk

December 19, 2014 by Gary Collinson

During a profile over at Entertainment Weekly, Captain America: The Winter Soldier star Frank Grillo has been speaking about his role as the villain Brock Rumlow, a.k.a. Crossbones, stating that the HYDRA sleeper agent could take on any superhero, including the Green Goliath!

“He is not good and not bad, Crossbones,” says Grillo, who is expected to return for Captain America: Civil War. “He’s just a guy who’s defending his ideology, and he’s a badass. He has no super powers. He’s a mercenary. Here’s the deal about Crossbones. The Hulk is just a big thug who comes at you. He comes out swinging. Crossbones is much smarter than that. Plus, he’s got weapons. The Hulk has no weapons. He’s an idiot. And he’s green. Crossbones doesn’t lose to people who are green. I’ll fight any of those guys. Any of them.”

Who knows, maybe we’ll get to see the two characters going at it during Civil War, depending of course on The Hulk’s fate in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Still, something tells me it wouldn’t be much of a fight…
