Liv Tyler Reprises Role for New Film Captain America: New World Order
Liv Tyler is back in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Armageddon actress is set to be reprising her role as scientist Betty Ross.
Liv Tyler is slated to appear in the upcoming film Captain America: New World Order after a fifteen-year absence. Tyler’s first appearance in the MCU began in The Incredible Hulk (2008). Betty Ross is the daughter of General Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, a role that originated with the late William Hurt in several films. Harrison Ford will now take over the role in the latest installment.
The Incredible Hulk was Marvel Studios’ second feature, released in the summer of 2008. The film featured Edward Norton as Bruce Banner/The Hulk. The actor infamously exited the franchise and was replaced by Mark Ruffalo for The Avengers (2012).
Liv Tyler played a great Betty Ross. I’d love to see her make a comeback in She-Hulk or the next Hulk project. It’s weird that she was never mentioned by Ross in a throwaway line just to acknowledge her. The Russos even confirmed she was snapped during Infinity War. pic.twitter.com/4zYDLTqBEK

Jackson, Emily Vancamp, Danny Ramirez, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Carl Lumbly, and Tim Blake Nelson. The ensemble will also feature Shira Haas (Unorthodox) and Xosha Roquemore (The Mindy Project). The film is slated for a May 2024 release.
Julius Onah (Luce) is directing the film from a script by Malcolm Spellman and Dalan Musson. Kevin Feige and Nate Moore are producing it.
