ComicMix speculates on the evidence Captain America was hiding in a cut scene from the Hulk movie, and what it might mean for the future of Marvel Comics movies.

A while back, The Incredible Hulk director Louis Leterrier claimed that a scene was shot in which Bruce Banner travels in the arctic. In the scene, the filmmaker hid one heck of a red, white and blue easter egg: Captain America buried beneath the ice, shield and all.

If these references are to be taken as canon, then Hulk's snowy prologue takes place before the events of Iron Man, since Steve's shield is buried beneath the ice. That implies that Rogers' body was discovered at some point between the two films, possibly before Tony Stark is fully immersed as Iron Man. Keeping the two films' endings in mind, namely Tony's encounter with Nick Fury and his conversation with General Ross, it's possible that The Avengers are already in place by the time The Incredible Hulk concludes. Perhaps, then, the superhero team-up feature will take place soon after Hulk's ending with the Avengers pursuing the Jade Giant.
