A new report from Variety clarified Ruffalo's recent comments regarding his potential MCU return in Captain America: Brave New World.
According to the outlet's multiple sources, the actor is actually not part of the upcoming MCU film. He misspoken during the interview as he thought he was agreeing that it was one of the franchise's next films.
