A brand new piece of concept art from Avengers: Endgame shows Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk with a damaged arm.
Now that Avengers: Endgame is out on home video, we’re starting to get a barrage of concept art that shows off how differently the film could have gone. The latest piece from Avengers: Endgame shows off an alternate look for Mark Ruffalo’s Smart Hulk. In Endgame, we saw Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk assume the form of Smart Hulk, the true amalgamation of Hulk and Bruce Banner. Despite being one of the strongest members on the Avengers, Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk isn’t immune to damage, which is exactly what this alternate concept art from Endgame tries to show.
In Avengers: Endgame, Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk is the one who uses the snap to bring those who have fallen back to life. By virtue of harnessing such energy, it would make sense for Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk to inherit some sort of pain or damage to his arm. In this brand new piece of concept art by Ryan Meinerding, Marvel Studios’ Head of Visual Development, we see Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk wearing a cast that shows how he’s been damaged from the snap. In the other piece of art, we see char take a hold of Hulk’s arm, similarly to how it was with Thanos. You can check out the concept art from Avengers: Endgame below. Be sure to swipe right to see all the artwork.

The concept art really shows how the smallest of details in a film like Avengers: Endgame make all the difference for the final product. Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk wasn’t seen with the cast until the ending of the film but knowing that at some point it was there makes the film all the more rewatchable as you have concept art to compare it. The Avengers: Endgame finale is a treasure trove filled with Easter eggs and callbacks, with many still being found to this day! And as the vaults of Marvel begin to loosen, we’ll be getting way more concept art to keep our hearts filled until the next generation of the Marvel Cinematic Universe begins.
