As incredible as he is, The Hulk almost perished duringAvengers: Infinity War, asMark Ruffalorecently revealed during his press tour for the upcomingAvengers: Endgame.
Ruffalo, 51, toldYahoo!that while Bruce Banner made it out of the 2018 blockbuster film alive, a second ending was shot, and it didn’t involve the original Avenger surviving.
The scene, which had Banner disintegrating into dust, was ultimately left out of the film, but Ruffalo did not know which fate his character would ultimately face until he actually watched the film.

“I didn’t know until I saw the movie,” he toldYahoo!. “For one take, I did disappear, and then the other one I didn’t.”
While Banner’s fate may potentially not be as lucky inEndgame, he survived the bloodbath ofInfinity Waralongside his fellow original six Avengers, although Ruffalo wasn’t so sure he would make it out alive.

“I was pretty sure it was gonna be me,” Ruffalo continued. “It’s likeSurvivor. It’s like, who’s gonna get kicked off the island? And I probably should’ve. … It’s likeProject Runwayfor leakers.”
Avengersdirectors Joe and Anthony Russo have previously taken measures to avoid spoilers and leaks, so the decision to film a fake scene is unsurprising. In fact, Spider-Man himselfTom Hollandwasn’t even given a script forAvengers: Endgamedue to his history of sharing spoilers.
