American actress-singer Liv Tyler is making her return to Marvel Studios after fifteen years of starring in "The Incredible Hulk".
Tyler has joined the cast of "Captain America: New World Order", the fourth installment in the Captain America franchise.
She will reprise the role of scientist Betty Ross, the daughter of General Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, who was played by the late William Hurt in several movies and will now be portrayed by Harrison Ford in the new installment.
"Incredible Hulk" was released in the summer of 2008 as Marvel Studios’ second movie after "Iron Man" launched the MCU. It featured Edward Norton as Bruce Banner/The Hulk.
The actor famously exited the franchise and was replaced by Mark Ruffalo for "The Avengers" (2012).
Tyler’s Ross was not seen again, though, over the years, actors from that movie have appeared in other MCU projects. Hurt’s Ross had a role in "Captain America: Civil War" (2016) and Tim Roth, who played the villain Abomination, was a key part of the Disney+ series "She-Hulk". Tim Blake Nelson, another Incredible Hulk alum, is also returning for "New World Order".
The upcoming installment will also feature Carl Lumbly, back as original super-soldier Isaiah Bradley after playing him in "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier"; Danny Ramirez returning as Falcon and the Winter Soldier‘s Joaquin Torres; and MCU newcomer Shira Haas.
Anthony Mackie is toplining the feature as Sam Wilson, inhabiting the mantle of Captain America for the first time on the big screen.
"The Cloverfield Paradox" director Julius Onah is directing the project that is currently shooting in Atlanta.
"Winter Soldier" show creator Malcolm Spellman wrote the script alongside Dalan Musson.
"Captain America: New World Order" hits the cinemas on May 3, 2024.
