Fans of Marvel films have been wondering for awhile if Mark Ruffalo's Bruce Banner/Hulk would make an appearance in Captain America: Civil War. We've heard rumors about his involvement, but now it seems like we have a definite answer on whether or not he will be joining in the action with the other Avengers in Civil War. During an interview with BadTaste.it, the actor reveals that he was originally supposed to be in the movie, but then he was removed. He explains why in the quote below. This is a rough translation of what he said thanks to Google translate. You'll get the gist of what he's saying, though.

"Because it's still missing is not known where. I thought that I would be in the film, but in the end evidently believe that reveal what happened Hulk is something too big, and Marvel wants to use this information later. My character had been inserted in the script, but then it was taken away. Who knows, maybe Hulk will never return. However, they want to keep the revelation of what happened a secret, because it is something really big."

All I can hope for is that Marvel eventually moves forward with plans to make that Planet Hulk film that we all want. If he doesn't show up in Civil War, the next time that we see The Hulk probably won't be until Avengers: Infinity War, so we've got a long way to go, unless he shows up in Doctor Strange, Black Panther or Captain Marvel, which I highly doubt.

Captain America: Civil War is scheduled to hit theaters on May 6th, 2016. What do you think happened to Hulk after Avengers: Age of Ultron? What's this big secret? You can read some possible details on where Marvel might take his story here.

Collider: I think the reason why the Marvel movies are so good — especially Winter Soldier — is that Winter Soldier’s a ‘70s political thriller that happens to star Captain America. And what I’m curious about is what kind of take is Civil War in terms of … because it’s obviously going to be a reboot and reinvention. Do you know what I mean?
<HR>Stan: Yeah, I’m sitting here and I’m listening to you and I’m thinking, “Do I want to fire some shots at DC right now, at Zack Snyder?” I read some of those comments where he said something about Batman and Superman, I can’t remember where I read that, somewhere… Something about, “It’s not going to be your flavor-of-the-week Ant-Man.” And I was like, “Oh thanks, Zack. That’s great. Way to do something original.” But I would say we’re still making something very original in our own way. I mean, the Russos are coming in and taking something people are used to and they’re shaping it up and changing it in a very different way. They’re not trying to mimic a better Christopher Nolan movie or something like that.”
