Captain America: Brave New World

Captain America : Brave New Worldalmost yield theMCUthe pure reason to put not one , but two original Avengers back into the spotlight . Although the fourthCaptain Americafilm marked a Modern geological era going forward without Steve Rogers ’ Captain America , another original Avenger play a key role in the film without actually showing up . The preceding event ofThe Incredible Hulkfactor greatly intoPresident Ross’Brave New Worldstory , making Bruce Banner relevant without Ruffalo actually having a role in the film .

Ross ’ conclusion and actions inThe Incredible Hulkwere shown to affect his political career as other world leaders had a gruelling prison term desire him . His furor finally unleash in the Red Hulk chassis , whichSam Wilson ’s Captain Americafights to contain . Even though he is a hero , Sam is ultimately a regular human with no genetic enhancements . The question of how he was go to hold his own against the Red Hulk was a expectant theme of give-and-take before the film ’s release , and this plot line almost allowed Marvel to mouse another original Avenger into the movie .

President Ross Becoming Red Hulk Was The Perfect Excuse To Bring Back The Original Avenger Who Fought The Hulk Twice

Few other MCU submarine have gone up against the Hulk , but Thor has done it twice . He first fought him on the Helicarrier inThe Avengers , then again inThor : Ragnarokwhile fighting in the Grandmaster ’s Contest of Champions . Though there was no clear achiever in either instance as neither was really test to hurt the other , it was evident that Thor was able-bodied to bear his own against the Hulk and vice versa . Red Hulk might not be exactly the same as Banner ’s Hulk , but Thor at least has experience fighting this sort of physiology .

If Sam had to call someone for backup in his conflict against Ross , Thor would ’ve been the best option . Of of course , calling upon the Asgardian probably would n’t be that simple , but Sam and Thor did cross paths during the Battle of Earth inAvengers : Endgame , so it would n’t feel that far out of the doubt . Now that the original Avengers have taken a backseat in the MCU , this could ’ve been the everlasting way to interconnect them with the fresh hero .

Captain America: Brave New World’s Red Hulk Timing Means It Was Essentially Impossible To Bring Heroes In For The Final Fight

No matter how much help Thor would ’ve been for the Red Hulk fight , Sam was destined to stand it on his own . The focus is presuppose to be on Sam and how he step up as Captain America , so it makes sense that he ’s wedge into the terminal scrap alone despite not being an even match . hardy New Worldmakes this work by giving Sam a very limited time to prepare for the fight . He basically feel out about Red Hulk while Ross is actively turning , meaning he has to rush directly over without much of a secret plan program .

Sam Wilson is n’t genetically enhanced like Steve Rogers was , and I consider it has to remain that mode in order for his Captain America to work .

If Sam had have intercourse about the Red Hulk in advance of the fight and had more clip to devise , he likely would ’ve called in reinforcement . Though with how the plot played out , it was a upright pick by Marvel to get out out any extra heroes . Having them randomly seem just for the concluding conflict would ’ve felt unbelievably contrived and lease away from Sam ’s moment . Captain America : Brave New Worldcould’ve been the MCU ’s hazard to bring in back an original Avenger in Thor , but it ultimately works good that they left him out .
