The MCU already has Hulk, She-Hulk, and an upcoming Red Hulk in Captain America: Brave New World, but it looks like Marvel is ready to introduce another Hulk to the franchise—and they’re borrowing a familiar face from the Ghostbusters sequels.
According to Daniel RPK, Logan Kim—who plays Podcast in Ghostbusters—has been cast as Amadeus Cho a.k.a. Brawn a.k.a. The Totally Awesome Hulk.

No details have been revealed as to where the series wants to introduce Amadeus Cho, but if I were to make a guess, it’s possible that they would want him to be a member of the Young Avengers. Then again, that group’s Hulk in the comics is Teddy Altman a.k.a. Hulkling, who is in a romantic relationship with Billy Kaplan/Wiccan, and is actually a Skrull/Kree hybrid—which explains why he’s green and strong.
If anything, Marvel is known to mix things up a bit, and it’s possible that they would just want a newer Hulk character to fill in that role for Young Avengers. Then again, Hulkling and Wiccan have been a couple for so long in the comics that there are sure to be fans upset if they don’t introduce Teddy and replace him with Amadeus.
Going back to the character of Amadeus, he’s considered to be one of the smartest people in the Marvel universe, and much like She-Hulk, he retains his personality and temperament when he’s Hulk/Brawn. With newer characters like Kamala Khan making the jump to live-action, Amadeus is sure to be a fun addition to the MCU. Let’s just hope we don’t have to wait too long before he shows up.
My fingers are still crossed for a Gwenpool introduction soon. How about an animated series?
