BREAKING! NEW HULK CAST IN MCU!
Marvel fans, hold onto your seats, because the Hulk is getting a fresh face in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)! After years of Mark Ruffalo's impressive portrayal of Bruce Banner, rumors have it that
Logan Kim, best known for his roles in and , has been cast to play Amadeus Cho, a new iteration of the Hulk. But don't expect this to be just another green, smashing giant—Amadeus Cho brings a whole new twist to the Hulk we've come to know and love.
For over a decade, Ruffalo's Hulk has been a mainstay in the MCU, from his humorous and destructive outbursts in to his eventual transformation into the calmer, "Smart Hulk" in . But now, as the MCU continues to expand and evolve, it seems like it’s time for the torch (or rather, the gamma rays) to be passed to a new Hulk:
Amadeus Cho.
Cho is a beloved character in Marvel Comics, a young genius whose intellect rivals that of Tony Stark and Reed Richards. In the comics, Cho eventually gains the ability to transform into a Hulk himself. But unlike Bruce Banner, Cho’s Hulk is different—he maintains much more control over his actions, making him a more strategic and deliberate hero. This shift offers a refreshing take on the character, one that Marvel seems eager to explore, especially in a future storyline.
Logan Kim, at just 16 years old, has already garnered attention for his performances in , where he brought a delightful blend of humor and tech-savviness to the role of Podcast. Now, stepping into the shoes of Amadeus Cho, Kim is set to show a more serious, action-packed side of his acting range. While some fans are excited about Kim’s casting, others have expressed doubts, comparing him to the formidable performances of Ruffalo and earlier Hulk actors like Edward Norton.
"He's perfect for the role. Young, fresh, and ready to bring something new to the table," one fan tweeted after hearing the news. But not everyone is convinced, with another fan noting, "He’s great in , but this is a whole different ball game. Hope he can handle it!". It’s clear that Kim has some big (literally and figuratively) shoes to fill, but this role could catapult him into superhero stardom.
Rumors are swirling about a potential storyline, and if they’re true, it could be the perfect vehicle to introduce Amadeus Cho as the new Hulk.
For those unfamiliar, is a popular comic book arc that follows Hulk after he’s banished from Earth, only to return angrier and more powerful than ever, declaring war on the planet. If this storyline is adapted, it will likely feature Cho’s Hulk battling both inner and outer conflicts, dealing with the massive responsibility of his newfound powers.
However, the MCU isn’t known for staying too close to its comic roots, so expect some changes if does make it to the big screen. With Kim’s youthful energy and Cho’s distinct personality, this could mark a significant departure from the more somber tone of Ruffalo's Hulk.
Marvel fans are divided. On one hand, some are thrilled about the casting, seeing it as a bold move to breathe new life into a character that has been overshadowed by other heroes in recent films. On the other hand, others worry that introducing a new Hulk could diminish the emotional depth and complexity that Ruffalo brought to the role. The key question on everyone’s mind seems to be: Will Kim’s Cho live up to the legacy of previous Hulks, or will this be a Hulk that smashes expectations in an entirely different way?
