Shang-Chi VFX Team Hints at Where Bruce Banner Is During Credits Scene

Shang-Chi and the Legends of the Ten Rings' VFX team teases where Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) is during the movie's post-credits scene.

Weta VFX, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings' VFX team, hints at where Bruce Banner is during the film's post-credits scene. Although it primarily had a contained narrative, the Destin Cretton still needed to establish its connection to the bigger MCU. This was primarily achieved with the appearances of familiar faces, including Mark Ruffalo's Banner, who looked significantly different compared to the last time he was on screen.

After his humiliating defeat from his one-on-one fight with Thanos (Josh Brolin) at the start of Avengers: Infinity War, the Hulk refused to come out for the rest of the film. So five years after the snap in Avengers: Endgame, fans were surprised to see Smart Hulk — a version of the character who is physically capable as the green-rage monster but with Banner's consciousness. The film didn't delve into the process of achieving the hybrid persona, but it did seem like a permanent state for the hero. But when he appeared during Shang-Chi and the Legend of Ten Rings' post-credits scene, he's back in his human form.

This posed several questions for viewers as Wong (Benedict Wong) officially brings in Shang-Chi (Simu Liu) and Katy (Akwafina) into the Avengers' world with a meeting with Captain Marvel (Brie Larson) and Banner. While the first three were seemingly all together in the Sanctum Sanctorum, the latter two joined them via hologram, the same ones the Avengers used in Avengers: Endgame. While speaking with Variety, Weta VFX supervisor Sean Walker broke down the process of creating the scene, revealing how they achieved it. Apparently, Carol Danvers' suit was all CGI, but more interestingly, Banner was in his laboratory during the discussion.(Store: https://hipmodes.com/)

She-Hulk Will Provide More Answers

Because Avengers: Endgame didn’t go into depth about how Banner was able to combine his two egos to create Smart Hulk; it’s still a mystery heading into MCU Phase 4. And the appearance of Banner in Shang-Chi and the Legends of the Ten Rings just added to the confusion; as it didn’t appear that Banner could simply switch between forms.

It’s likely that the upcoming Marvel Studios’ Disney+ series She-Hulk will throw some light on this. Walker’s claim that Banner is in his lab is backed up by the show’s first official look; which shows him and his cousin, Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany), in his own facility.

Assuming that Hulk is operating out of his own laboratory, the remaining heroes are generally dispersed and doing their own thing. Banner could have easily taken over the Avengers facility upstate; (assuming it had previously been restored); and manned it like Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) did after Thanos’ snap in Avengers: Infinity War. However, because he relies on his own resources, there is no system in place for the next generation of Avengers.
