Anthony Mackie may have just let slip that a fellow Avenger will appear alongside him in Captain America: Brave New World.

While recapping whether the story of 2008’s The Incredible Hulk matters in Captain America: Brave New World to a bemused Harrison Ford for Entertainment Weekly, Anthony Mackie says "when he shows up," seemingly referring to Mark Ruffalo’s character, who the Captain America actor describes as "the other Hulk" opposite Ford’s Red Hulk.

Of course, Ruffalo – and Mackie, for that matter – may have misspoke. Following Ruffalo’s slip, Variety even reported that Hulk wouldn’t be in Captain America: Brave New World.

But a cast that features several legacy characters from The Incredible Hulk (Tim Blake Nelson’s The Leader and Liv Tyler’s Betty Ross alongside Harrison Ford’s ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross) feels like it’s all heading towards a Hulk reveal.
