Red Hulk’s entry created a stir

One of the most talked about moments of the film was the transformation of Thaddeus Ross into Red Hulk. This was the first time Red Hulk was shown in live-action. Advanced Motion Capture Technology was used to bring this character on screen. The VFX team recorded Harrison Ford’s facial expressions and transformed it into Red Hulk. Interestingly, it was not easy to prepare Ford for this character, as he had never given such a VFX-heavy performance before.

Difficulties faced during shooting

Although the final version of the film turned out to be quite spectacular, many challenges were faced in completing it. During production, re-shooting had to be done several times, which also increased the budget of the film. Marvel had earlier tried to keep the film in a light-hearted tone. But later it was given a more serious and emotional touch. According to reports, some scenes were re-shot even a few months before the release of the film, so that it could be made more impactful.

Ford and Mackie’s chemistry

Another special thing about this film was the tremendous on-screen chemistry of Harrison Ford and Anthony Mackie. The audience well liked their clash on screen, but their friendship on the set also remained in the headlines. Mackie told that working with Ford was no less than a dream for him. During the shooting, Ford was often in a funny mood and kept the atmosphere light on the set. Mackie said in an interview, “I have never seen Harrison Ford laugh so much before!”

A special journey for director Julius Onah

This project was very special for the director of this film, Julius Onah. Being a Nigerian-American director, directing a big film like Marvel was the biggest milestone in his career. He said in one of his interviews that he wanted to bring something new to the superhero genre through this film. According to him, this film is not just an action movie, but a story of struggle, leadership and sacrifice, which will touch the hearts of the audience.

Funny BTS moments from the shooting

There were some funny moments during the shooting of every big film, and Brave New World was no different. In one scene, Anthony Mackie had to do a stunt, but he was falling repeatedly. Due to which the whole team could not stop laughing. At the same time, Harrison Ford was having trouble understanding some of the terminology of Marvel’s comics, and he repeatedly asked “What is Multiverse?”. Apart from this, Captain America’s Steve Rogers shield was kept on the set, seeing which many crew members became emotional.
