Mark Ruffalo to reprise his role as Bruce Banner bringing Hulk to Spider-Man: Brand New Day: Reports
Mark Ruffalo is set to return as Bruce Banner in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, according to exclusive reports from Nexus Point News. The actor's yet to be confirmed return, marks his tenth appearance in a mainline Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) project. While the details of his character's role in the upcoming film remain under wraps, it's confirmed that Ruffalo will play a significant part, far beyond a mere cameo. It's still unclear whether Banner will transform into his green alter ego, the Hulk, or remain in his Professor Hulk form, but his role will likely provide mentorship to Spider-Man's Peter Parker. Ruffalo's last portrayal of Banner was in the Disney+ series She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, where his character was involved in a storyline that saw his cousin, Jennifer Walters, transform into She-Hulk after being exposed to his blood. Banner, still in his Professor Hulk persona, helped Walters control her powers, and later appeared with his son Skaar in the series finale. Spider-Man: Brand New Day will be the fourth film in the MCU's Spider-Man series, directed by Destin Daniel Cretton (Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings), with a script by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers. Tom Holland will reprise his role as Spider-Man, with Zendaya and Jacob Batalon returning in supporting roles. Michael Mando is also reportedly in talks to return as Mac Gargan. The film, set to be released on July 31, 2026, will begin filming in late July in London, with production expected to wrap in the Fall. Spider-Man: Brand New Day is part of Phase 6 of the MCU and will follow Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
