By now you should already know that next year’s Captain America: Brave New World features Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson aka Captain America going up against a red version of The Hulk.

In the comics, Red Hulk is the hulked-out alter ego of Thaddeus E. “Thunderbolt” Ross, played in Brave New World by Harrison Ford, who replaces the late WIlliam Hurt in the role.
