These world famous Brazilian stairs – Escadaria Selaron – also appear in the movie. The football pitch that Banner is chased across, for example, is the Quadra de Esportes da Tavares Bastos, and the street that Thaddeus Ross drives his van down in pursuit of Bruce is the Rua Tavares Bastos. I’m not sure on the exact location of Banner’s home because the huts are all very similar, but you can pinpoint a few different scene locations. It’s much smaller and safer than Rocinha, which is why it was used to portray the favela in most of the action shots. Taveres Bastos is the second Favela to appear in the movie. All of the action was actually shot at a different favela. Even though this is where Bruce Banner lives in the movie, Rocinha was only used for aerial footage. The impressive opening shot is of a real life Favela – Rocinha – the largest favela in Brazil.
Unlike Iron man, The Incredible Hulk isn’t an origin story, so after a small recap about how Bruce Banner became the Hulk, we’re transported ‘5 years later’ to the city of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil where Banner is hiding out. EVERY FILMING LOCATION IN THE INCREDIBLE HULK Rocinha, Brazil If you fancy re-living The Incredible Hulk and standing in Banner’s footprints, then make sure to check out the locations below and plan your visit. Instead, the movie was almost entirely shot in Canada, with a few of the more exotic scenes taking place in Brazil. Set in three different locations Rio de Janeiro, Virginia and New York – filming never actually took place in the US. It also stars Liv Tyler as Betty Ross, William Hurt as Thaddeus Ross, and Tim Roth as Royal Marine Commando, Emil Blonsky. The film stars Edward Norton as Bruce Banner / Hulk – who played the character before Mark Ruffalo took over from The Avengers movie, onwards. To be honest, it’s probably the Marvel film I’m least familiar with, having only seen it a couple of times in the past 10 years, but that just meant I was even more excited to watch it. The Incredible Hulk was released in 2008 – shortly after Iron Man – making it the second movie to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and therefore the second movie in my Marvel Movie Marathon.
