Of course, Marvel fans have recently been celebrating Harrison Ford joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Ford will be taking over the role of General ā€œThunderboltā€ Ross, who was previously played by the late William Hurt. The actor passed away earlier this year. Many assumed Ford wouldnā€™t be interested in joining the MCU; however, to Ford, the answer as to why he would is simple.

ā€œHey, look, Iā€™ve done a lot of things. I now want to do some of the things I havenā€™t done,ā€ Ford said.

One might assume those ā€œthings he hasnā€™t doneā€ include motion capture, as the character does eventually become the Red Hulk. Our host, Mike DeAngelo, asked if Ford was going to be putting on the grey motion capture suit for such things. Ever the professional, Ford simply smiled and replied with a ā€œzipped-lipsā€ sign. Can we call that a confirmation, Mr. Ford?

-What made you want to take the Marvel role [as Thunderbolt Ross, previously played by the late William Hurt]?

I donā€™t know. I canā€™t explain myself to myself, I just work here. (Laughs.) I thought, ā€œEverybody else seems to be having a great time.ā€ I watch all these terrific actors having a good time [in Marvel movies]. I like doing something different to what Iā€™ve ever done and pleasing people with it. So Iā€™ll try a piece of that.

Is it only meant to be short term?
Rumor is he becomes Red Hulk. Seems to me from then on Ford only needs to do voice over work unless another actor does the Hulk voice.
