While Marvel has had no trouble incorporating unresolved content from previous films into more recent movies, the studio took its time bringing back threads from the 2008 film. incredible hulk.Hate appears now She-Hulk after a brief cameo Shang-Chi, and next year’s Captain America: Brave New World Going further, several characters will be brought back: Thaddeus Ross (Harrison Ford), his daughter Betty (Liv Tyler), and Tim Blake Nelson as Samuel Sterns, aka “The Leader.”
Most recently, Nelson appeared on Michael Rosenbaum’s show your heart podcast, in which he talks about returning to the character. Interestingly, he revealed that leaders will “do it as practically as possible without the digital stuff.” The Hulk villain has a rather large head, a side effect of being bombarded with gamma radiation that gave him super intelligence.Normally, that giant skull would probably be made with CG, but considering the criticism that several recent Marvel Cinematic Universe movies have received cunning CG——so that its In-house visual effects team The union was only formed last year—Marvel seems determined to make that big head effective. In fact, both Kevin Feige and producer Nate Moore are “100%” committed to making the character as practical as possible.
Hearing that Leader won’t be a visual eyesore sounds great, and reiterates how the film is more conservative than the more fantastical Marvel films.Earlier this month, the director Julius Ona emphasize brave new world would be quite down to earth and push Sam Wilson to his limits. Nielsen also touted the film as being “very grounded in reality” and praised Marvel and Ona for being as realistic as possible. For him, doing this with The Leader is something he’s “very happy to do” and he feels it will benefit the entire film. “Julius directed it brilliantly,” he said. “I am very happy [this movie]”.
