Incarnation of Bruce Banner alias Hulk since “Avengers” in 2012, Mark Ruffalo revealed in a 2015 documentary that he had auditioned to play one of the (very) great villains of the Marvel universe…
Incarnation of Bruce Banner alias Hulk the angry since 2012 in Avengers, Mark Ruffalo has walked his silhouette in the marvelian landscape on many occasions; and it is not over, since it is also planned in the next series She-Hulk, devoted to the cousin of Bruce Banner, supposed to inherit his powers.
History to stay in this universe, the latter intervened in 2015 in a documentary entitled Doomed: The Untold Story of Roger Corman’s The Fantastic Four, broadcast on a digital platform. This is the film about the Fantastic 4, dated 1994 and which has never been released in theaters. Ruffalo thus reveals having passed an audition to play Dr. Doom; role that ultimately fell through at the hands of Joseph Culp.
No regrets having said that, since the film was not even intended for theatrical release anyway. The reason ? The film, produced by Roger Corman and Bernd Eichinger, was rushed for the sole reason that the latter did not want to lose the rights… Never officially released, the film has been circulating for some time in the form of pirated copies.
Below, the documentary in question, unfortunately reserved for the most English-speaking among you…
