Avengers: Endgame - Mysteries Answered

12. What's The Deal With Hulk?

One of Infinity War's biggest surprises was the Hulk, or perhaps more specifically, the lack of the Hulk. After being beaten by Thanos in the opening, Bruce Banner was unable to summon his alter ego for the rest of the film, which left fans wondering whether or not Banner would end up transforming again and get over his defeat in Endgame.

This is another mystery that was answered relatively quickly, as one of the first scenes after the five-year time jump shows the Hulk back in the picture, only this time with the personality of Banner. Blending the brains with brawn, the scientist is now in his Professor Hulk form, finally at ease with his two warring sides.

Professor Hulk had been leaked via concept art months prior to the film's release, but his sudden appearance in the film - especially after being absent in the trailers - was a huge surprise.
