The Incredible Hulk
Though there ’s still half a year left beforeCaptain America : Civil Warkicks off Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe , aid is already being shift to another big event in the MCU . In 2017,Thor : Ragnarokwill see Thor Odinson leaving Midgard as danger bulk large in the other realm .
While seeing Thor and his brother Loki back in military action is exciting , the most interesting face of the film is that Mark Ruffalo ’s Hulkwill play an important roleinRagnarok . Thus far , Ruffalo ’s Hulk has been kept in a supporting role , only appearing in the twoAvengersfilms . The character was an instant fan - favorite , butcomplications with distributionand ( more significantly ) thedifficulty of accommodate the Hulk as a standalone characterhave prevented any plans for a next solo film .
Unfortunately , despite his expanded role inThor 3 , another Hulk solo film remains unlikely . Ruffalo’scontract is for six moving-picture show , and though Marvel reduce the character fromCivil Warto " save him , " it does n’t appear the studio apartment is deliver him for his own risky venture or the often rumoredPlanet Hulkmovie .
Speaking withUSA Today , Ruffalo confirmed his character is n’t any closer to a standalone film today than he was three years ago .
" Actually , it feels even further away . It ’s not Marvel ’s property , it ’s Universal ’s belongings . I do n’t know . It seems really problematic . I ’ve been around long enough to be o.k. with it . There ’s only so much that ’s in my exponent and I ’m not going to agonise over what is not in my index … I ’d love to do it , it ’d be really fun . There ’s a lot still to do with the eccentric . I always attempt to conceive about different places we could go with him . "
Universal does n’t own the character rights to the Hulk , but the studio apartment still holds the dispersion rights if Marvel were make another standalone film . Paramount distributed around half of the MCU films andSony will be distributingthe upcomingSpider - Manfilm , so the dispersion deal is likely not the boastful element against a solo Hulk film .
Ruffalo late stated that he hopes to seeDr . Bruce Banner and the Hulk separate at some pointin the MCU . The actor is pushing for the storyline and dilate on his abstract thought during the audience .
" I ’m angling for it . I do n’t have intercourse if it ’ll happen now , but at some point I ’d like to see it materialise . When I was doing ' Age of Ultron ' - doing the Scarlet Witch loony toons trip scenes - it really took me a farsighted time to figure out what the Hulk would be afraid of . And then I realized , it was Banner . That human relationship is what we ’re all so into , but we ’ve never seen them in the same prospect together … I always imagined that that could be somewhat exciting if we could draw it off . "
" I do n’t know what the story is yet , but it ’ll be [ Loki ] and Thor , and then I ’ll be in there here and there . But I do n’t recognize any of the detail yet … Chris [ Hemsworth ] and I have a really good time together , we boob off and play around when Tom Hiddleston is around . So it ’ll be a luck of funny back - and - forth … It ’ll have that sort of antagonistic ' Odd Couple'-thing go bad on . "
Though many desire to finally see thePlanet Hulkstory accommodate for the MCU , it may be too earlyfor that particular tarradiddle . That plot line is antagonistic , with members of the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. involved in jettison the Hulk away from Earth . WhileCivil Warwill see the first extensive conflict between the Hero of the MCU , it ’s too soon to have them betraying their friend so completely . Putting the character intoRagnarokis a safe move , allowing the expansion of the character while turn his relationship with the Avengers ' other heavy hitter .
