**London, UK** – Director Julius Onah has expressed immense excitement over Harrison Ford’s portrayal of Red Hulk in the upcoming Marvel film, *Captain America: Brave New World*. Onah described his initial reaction to seeing Ford as the rage-filled Hulk as “surreal, incredible, and exciting,” emphasizing that the casting felt instinctively right.
The director highlighted that the Red Hulk’s inclusion isn’t merely a spectacle; it’s deeply connected to the film’s themes. Onah explained that the character’s rage is both relatable and thematically crucial to the central conflict. He stated that the decision to feature Red Hulk was driven by both a childlike enthusiasm for the character and a directorial understanding of its narrative significance.
The film will see Ford’s Red Hulk, President Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross (recast following the death of William Hurt), clashing with Anthony Mackie’s Captain America. This highly anticipated matchup has been showcased in recent trailers. Ford himself previously commented on the role, playfully suggesting the Red Hulk’s appearance wasn’t too far from his everyday look, according to his wife. *Captain America: Brave New World* is part of Marvel’s Phase 5.
