William Hurt To Be “New Version” Of General Ross In Civil War

One of the more surprising moves that Marvel has announced was William Hurt reprising his role as General Ross from The Incredible Hulk. I’m sure you all remember that post credits scene also. Well, Hurt sat down with IGN to talk about how his role as General Ross will be different this time around:

“I loved playing Ross the first time because I was able to try and create an ego as big as the monster he was chasing. And one that was as warped too,” Hurt told IGN while promoting his new show Humans. “It’s a more modernized style. And what they’ve done is they’ve taken a character who was the Ross from the older film and made a new version. This is a much newer Ross. A much different Ross. And I liked that a lot. I haven’t had a lot of time to understand it, but I’m doing the best I can. And they haven’t fired me yet.”

Does this mean we’ll be seeing Red Hulk? I guess we’ll have to wait to find out.

In the film,

Political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability when the actions of the Avengers lead to collateral damage. The new status quo deeply divides members of the team. Captain America (Chris Evans) believes superheroes should remain free to defend humanity without government interference. Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) sharply disagrees and supports oversight. As the debate escalates into an all-out feud, Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) must pick a side.
