In an interview with BBC Radio 1, Anthony Mackie was talking about the extremely bloated roster of superheroes slated to appear in Captain America: Civil War. Among the list of names he offhandedly mentions is one that isn’t exactly confirmed yet: Mark Ruffalo.
Said Mackie (emphasis mine):
Having seen the movie, it’s Marvel’s best movie thus far. And I’m being honest, if a Marvel movie sucks, a movie in the Marvel universe, I’ll tell you it sucked… Winter Soldier and Iron Man 1 are probably Marvel’s two best movies. I feel like [Civil War] beats both of those movies. It’s really, really good.
Because it’s more of an acting movie than an action movie, I feel like the story is very concise and interesting, and you get to see Robert Downey Jr and Chris Evans and Scarlett Johannson and Mark Ruffalo and everybody just do really, really good acting. And then there’s action in it. The great thing about being in a Marvel movie? They have really good actors. I mean, Don Cheadle is in the Marvel Universe! I think it might be the first superhero movie that might be up for Best Picture.
You’ll remember that Ruffalo has been spotted in Berlin (where Civil War is filming), poppin’ bottles in the club with the rest of the cast. But you might also remember back in September when Ruffalo himself said that his character was removed from Civil War. All this constant back and forth is starting to wear on my emotions, guys. Which is it, really?! Can we expect the jolly green giant to make an appearance or not?
