Brave New World' premiere, Harrison Ford spoke to Deadline about stepping into the MCU role originated by William Hurt.

Hurt got to know each other over the years. "But I knew his work, and his work is fantastic. To have the opportunity to step into the shoes of a character that he helped to create was not a barrier to me.

Brave New World sees Harrison Ford replace the late William Hurt as Thaddeus Ross, the newly elected President of the United States. Now, Marvel fans are discussing other MCU recasts on Reddit, including Mark Ruffalo replacing Edward Norton as Bruce Banner and Don Cheadle taking over from Terrance Howard as James "Rhodey" Rhodes.
