Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner/The Hulk is notably absent from the cast of Avengers: Doomsday, despite being an original Avenger. Although he will appear in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, where he may face challenges, Ruffalo confirmed he won’t be part of Doomsday without compelling material for the character. Alongside him, Tom Holland’s Spider-Man is also expected to be missing from the film, raising concerns about both characters’ futures. Avengers: Doomsday releases on December 18, 2026, followed by Avengers: Secret Wars on December 17, 2027.
