Harrison Ford seems all set to become the latest actor to feature in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The veteran actor is expected to take over from William Hurt as the latest General Thunderbolt Ross.
Hurt had played the role for the first Hulk movie and reprised his role in many subsequent Marvel movies. However, the actor passed away in 2022 and recasting any role takes quite a bit of decision-making.
While Ford is one of the greatest actors ever to have graced the business, there could have been others that were better fitted for the role. Another major question about the character is whether Ross will turn into The Red Hulk as he did in the comics.
Ford had an interesting reply when he was asked about it. While the actor has been seen on the sets of Captain America 4, there has not been concrete confirmation of what is expected from him.
The Red Hulk plays a huge role in the Marvel comics and we asked Bard AI if Ford was the right man for the role.
Is Harrison Ford the right man to play Red Hulk?
Bard AI actually had a very detailed answer regarding Ford and the role. The AI tool brought up Ford’s iconic roles in other franchises such as Indiana Jones and Star Wars.
Ford also has played a big role in the Blade Runner franchise, and there are countless other quality movies that he has been a part of.
The AI tool also believed that Ford would be “able to bring” the comic character to life thanks to his physical presence and acting abilities.
The third point that the AI tool brought up is Ford’s charisma. There is no questioning that Ford does bring a certain charm to any character he takes up, and it would be no different if he became The Red Hulk in Captain America 4.
While Bard AI did suggest that there were other actors who could take up the role, it was quite certain that the Indiana Jones star would be the right candidate for this Red Hulk role.
Captain America 4 or Captain America: Brave New World stars Anthony Mackie as the titular character.
It also features Danny Ramirez, Tim Blake Nelson and Liv Tyler in the movie. Captain America: Brave New World releases on 26 July 2024.
