This marks the first time an actor has played the same character in a Marvel film's reboot of the series on screen as they did in a previous series (although Lou Ferrigno played the Hulk in The Incredible Hulk (1977), he only provided Hulk's voice in the MCU).

Whether this was intentional misdirection or a change of plans has not been reported.
