Liv Tyler Joins Captain America: New World Order, Reprising Role From 2008s The In
Liv Tyler is returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, 16 years after her last appearance.
The actor will appear in 2024’s “Captain America: New World Order,” reprising her role from 2008’s “The Incredible Hulk” as scientist Betty Ross, the daughter of General Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross. That role was originated by the late William Hurt, who reappeared several times for Marvel Studios, starting with 2016’s “Captain America: Civil War,” in which Ross had become Secretary of State.
Harrison Ford is stepping into the role of Thaddeus Ross for “New World Order,” in which the character has become President of the United States.
