Before he joins up with the rest of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes for The Avengers: Age of Ultron, Mark Ruffalo is at the Sundance Film Festival where he’s promoting his latest film Infinitely Polar Bear, but that didn’t stop the actor from giving a few thoughts on the script for the upcoming Avengers sequel, as well as teasing more “great stuff” from his character.
“I would say that it’s better, it’s cooler, it’s more awesomer [than The Avengers],” Ruffalo tells MTV News. “It’s a little bit darker, but also really has Joss Whedon’s incredibly, witty and sly sense of humor. [Bruce Banner] gets to do such great stuff.”
Meanwhile, Ruffalo has also given fans of the Green Goliath hope of a solo Hulk movie, stating that, “I’m in The Avengers, but if you took my screentime it would come to about ten minutes, along with the 12 other people I’m sharing the screen with, so my input’s kind of limited on that. But if we get to a standalone Hulk movie, I’ll have a much better chance to do that. I’m just learning now how to find my voice and bring it into the studio world.”
The Avengers: Age of Ultron will open on May 1st 2015 with Ruffalo joined by Marvel veterans Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man), Chris Evans (Captain America), Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye), Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow), Don Cheadle (War Machine), Samuel L. Jackson (Nick Fury) and Cobie Smulders (Maria Hill) and franchise newcomers Elizabeth Olsen (Martha Marcy May Marlene) as Scarlet Witch, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kick-Ass 2) as Quicksilver, Thomas Kretschmann (Dracula) as Baron Strucker, and James Spader (The Blacklist) as Ultron.
