Harrison Ford is set to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), making a surprise appearance in Captain America: New World Order. The 80-year-old actor will play Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, a character previously portrayed by William Hurt in the MCU.
Hurt’s death in March 2022 left the role of Ross vacant, and Marvel Studios has been searching for a replacement ever since. Ford is said to have been at the top of their list from the beginning, and he has finally agreed to sign on for the role.
Ross is a complex and controversial character in the MCU. A decorated military general, he is also a staunch anti-superhero advocate. This has put him at odds with Captain America and the other Avengers on numerous occasions. However, he has also been a reluctant ally to them when the world has been threatened.
Ford’s casting is a major coup for Marvel Studios. He is one of the most iconic actors in Hollywood history, and his presence in the MCU is sure to generate a lot of excitement among fans. It also suggests that Marvel Studios is looking to bring in more veteran actors to play its older characters, a trend that began with Anthony Hopkins as Odin in the Thor films.
Captain America: New World Order is scheduled to be released in theaters on May 3, 2024.
