2025 Topps Marvel Studios Chrome
Marvel Studios' Captain America: Brave New World (2025) featured the big-screen debut of the Red Hulk! The character had been first introduced in the Hulk (Vol. 2) # 1 back in 2008 by creators Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuiness, with the big mystery of his true identity being kept secret for about 2 years, then finally revealed in issue 22!

The beautiful irony, of course, was that none other than General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross, the guy who'd been endessly pursuing the Hulk for years and years, had in fact, become a Hulk himself! While the always-wonderful Sam Elliot had first played General Ross in the 2003 Hulk movie, it was the late, great William Hurt who came to embody the role for the longest time within the MCU, starting with 2008's Incredible Hulk film, all the way to 2021's Black Widow.Β (Cont.)
After his untimely passing, Harrison Ford was re-cast in the role, just in time to have the silver screen introduction of the Red Hulk's visage modeled after him, and I gotta say I thought he looked amazing! I do wish we'd gotten to see more of him in the movie, but the action sequences we did get were fun and I can't wait to see where he'll pop up next!
