Harrison Ford Didn't Initially Know That He Was Red Hulk

Harrison Ford recently revealed that he wasn't aware that he would be Red Hulk in Captain America: Brave New World.

Later this month, Marvel Studios is dropping the next chapter of the MCU with Captain America: Brave New World, and we're extremely excited to see Red Hulk make his live-action debut. Which, according to the actor playing the role, wasn't something he even realized upon joining the film.

When speaking to The Wall Street Journal, Harrison Ford revealed that he hadn't actually seen a complete script when he initially signed on to Captain America: Brave New World. Discussing his state of mind on that, he reveals, "Why not [sign on]? I saw enough [Marvel movies] to see actors that I admired having a good time." However, because he didn't look over any script details, the actor admits that he didn't even realize his character would be making a Red Hulk transition until the film was further into production. Ford then tells the outlet, "I didn't really know that at the end, I would turn into the Red Hulk. Well, it's like life; you only get so far in the kit until the last page of the instructions is missing."

At the time of the reveal, many assumed that was the primary reason that Ford agreed in the first place, but clearly, it was just the actor's blind faith in Marvel that worked in his favor!
