Over the course of the last ten years, Ruffalo has gone on to appear in Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), Thor: Ragnarok (2017), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), and Avengers: Endgame (2019). He is currently reprising his MCU role in Disney+ Original series, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, alongside star Tatiana Maslany (Jennifer Walters/She-Hulk).
In addition to Maslany and Ruffalo, the comedy-driven legal show also stars familiar faces like Wong (Benedict Wong) and Emil Blonsky/Abomination (Tim Roth). Marvel Studios newcomers include Nikki Ramos (Ginger Gonzaga), Mallory Brook (Renée Elise Goldsberry), and social media influencer Titania (Jameela Jamil).
Recently, Ruffalo addressed his Marvel future in a Variety interview, discussing whether or not he intends to retire from Kevin Feige’s MCU soon with Phase 5 and Phase 6 looming:
“I mean, I’ll probably do it as long as they’ll have me, if people are interested, and I can bring something that’s interesting to me to it, and interesting to the fans. But I have no idea. I mean, you know, when you look at the comics, there’s some pretty grizzled, old versions of him. I’m like, OK, the 67-year-old Hulk, that would be interesting — if all of us are still here making movies and there’s a world that allows for us to do that anymore. With what we’re living in and heading towards, the future feels more precarious than any other time. So I don’t want to get too far ahead of myself. But I hope I’m still around to do it.”
The star also went on to say that he is “always surprised that I’m still here. I mean, me and Ed Norton joke that the Hulk is like our generation’s Hamlet — we’re all going to get a shot at it. I keep waiting for the next version of it.” Furthermore, the Spotlight actor recently indicated that a new solo Hulk movie could be in the works.
