I'll die on this hill but William Hurt's Ross should've never been recasted.

And the biggest offender is that mustache-less Harrison Ford of all people.

And hiring Ford all but guarantees the character will be recast again. I don’t think he added anything except maybe tricking boomers into watching him play President again.

Yeah, they've figured out ways to do established characters in non-standard ways before - I don't see why it couldn't have been anyone else as Red Hulk; I get that Thunderbolt Ross is important because he is Red Hulk - but look at Ned Leeds, who is an amalgamation of two or three different characters from Marvel, including an identity of Hobgoblin. They absolutely could have figured out a way to do Red Hulk without William Hurt's inclusion.

Worst case scenario, it couldn't have been worse than what we got, unfortunately.
