Eric Bana Hasn’t Heard of Red Hulk, Won’t Be Watching Captain America: Brave New World

Eric Bana may have starred in 2003’s Hulk , but these days he has no interest in the classic Marvel character.

During an interview with Men’s Journal to promote the recent release of his new film, Australian-set crime/thriller Force of Nature: The Dry 2 , Bana revealed he wasn’t aware Harrison Ford is playing a version of Hulk - called Red Hulk - in Captain America: Brave New World .

There’s nothing wrong with that, of course. But it probably means he won’t be reprising arguably his most iconic role in a Marvel film any time soon. Read our exchange with Bana below.

Men’s Journal:

You gave an incredible portrayal of the Hulk. How excited are you to see Harrison Ford play the Hulk in Captain America?

Eric Bana:

“I've not heard of that.”

Men’s Journal:

No? Harrison Ford's playing Red Hulk in Captain America.

Eric Bana:

“I don't even know what the Red Hulk is.”

Men’s Journal:

Oh, he's like a really angry version of the Hulk, if that could be a thing.

Eric Bana:

“I'm not a good comic book aficionado. I'm sorry.”

Men’s Journal:

Oh well, you did a very good job as the Hulk anyway.

Eric Bana:

“Thanks, mate.”
