the Abomination, appearing in the second episode ofShe-Hulk: Attorney at Law, that debate can finally end.
“I think it’s really funny.
“I actually joked with Ed about this.
I was like, ‘It’s like our generation’s Hamlet.
Everyone’s going to get a shot at it.’
And there’ll probably be another couple before it’s all over.
People will be like, ‘Remember when the Hulk used to look like Mark Ruffalo?
Now it looks like Timothee Chalamet.’
“The cool thing about this world is that it could just be anything,” he says.
“Five years from now it could totally morph into anything, whatever’s pertinent at the time.
I almost see him going back to ‘Berserker Hulk’ or ‘World War Hulk’.
It could go anywhere.
And I do feel like I’m actually passing the torch on, in a strange way.”
It clicks and it’s fun.
I adore her and she’s fantastic.”
Maslany tells EW that finding that magical chemistry with Ruffalo was just “innate” and immediate.
“You couldn’t get a flow going as much and now I could justplay it.
“But the cool thing is it never got to a place where we were shut down.
Regardless of how many episodes Bruce does make an appearance in moving forward, Ruffalo enjoyed every single moment.
“‘How does he live his life when he is not being a superhero?’
It was really fun and funny.
We got to do it withRagnarok, but we really got to dig in on it here.”
I think there’s a lot more to say about it.”
