Captain America cameo in ‘Incredible Hulk’

“The Marvel universe is set to implode Friday, with a slew of crossover cameos and throwback references in The Incredible Hulk.

Not only will Robert Downey, Jr. reprise his role as billionaire Tony Stark with a lengthy cameo in the film, but further whetting the Avengers-appetite is an appearance by Captain America.

And it’s likely to be more substantial than the measly millisecond glimpse of a shield (barely) seen in Iron Man. In a recent interview with G4’s Attack of the Show, Incredible Hulk director Louis Leterrier hinted at the superhero’s cameo, saying:

“As a filmmaker and as a fan, I like to go see movies and watch them several times, †¦ and every time I see it, discover little things in the background. Did you know that in Iron Man, Captain America’s shield can be found somewhere? Well in Hulk you might see Captain America Himself!”” – Wired Mag

So there is a chance Captain America actually shows up in the movie! That’s insane, we will know tonight for sure.
