Bana also shared his initial reluctance to take on the Hulk role, admitting that he was eventually persuaded by the involvement of director Ang Lee.

He explained, “At first, I was like, ‘No way. It’s not my kind of bag. I don’t think this is me,’ and then we thought more and more about it, and I just, because also I didn’t have a script when I said yes, so I was like, ‘Well, what’s this gonna be like?’ So I really, really was putting all my chips in the Ang Lee basket on that film most definitely.”

The actor also noted that the Marvel Cinematic Universe had not been established at the time, so he didn’t expect to play the character for more than one movie.

“You didn’t go and do those films thinking you were gonna do more than one movie. That paradigm didn’t exist, so you’re right. It was very, very much driven by wanting to work with someone like Ang.”

Deadpool & Wolverine is set to hit theaters on July 26, 2024.
