Age of Ultron Sets Up New Ground For Hulk/Banner Relationship


At the Begin Again press junket, actor Mark Ruffalo spoke with Indiewire about returning to play Bruce Banner/Hulk, where he would like to take the character, and more.

"If we could find a story that's compelling enough to hold people's interest for the two hours -- that is essential," he reiterated. "It's a tough nut to crack and I see it as a tough nut to crack. I think it's tougher than the other superheroes because you have a guy who essentially doesn't want to be there doing the thing that you want him to do more than anything. So it can be frustrating as an audience member. It could become a little mirthless. I think that Joss [Whedon] is trying to set it up enough so that we can strike out new ground on that relationship. With the new technology there's a lot to do in Hulk-land that we haven't done yet that is really exciting. So you could have a balance of the two. And I've been finding this relationship between Banner and the Hulk and Hulk and Banner is equally compelling -- it's been explored in the comics, but never in the movies. It's always been Banner's relationship to this sort of lump, this unknowable very two-dimensional thing. But there's also something really interesting about Hulk's relationship with Banner. The only thing that scares Hulk is Banner. It's not some bigger, scarier, huger thing -- it's this frail man. And it terrifies him and it angers him. It's such an interesting relationship that no one has cracked. I feel like that would be an interesting place for us to go. That might hold people's attention."

Opening on May 1st, 2015, Avengers: Age of Ultron stars Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner, James Spader, Thomas Kretschmann, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, Cobie Smulders, Paul Bettany, Samuel L. Jackson, and Josh Brolin (rumored to play Thanos).
