Avengers: Age of Ultron left Bruce Banner's future very much up in the air so there was understandably a lot of excitement when we learned that the Planet Hulk storyline would be very loosely adapted in Thor: Ragnarok. Now, the Green Goliath is making the leap from this movie to Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4 for what's been described as a three movie arc for the iconic Marvel Comics hero.
However, what comes after that? We don't know but it's hard not to hope that whatever Phase 4 looks like includes a solo outing for the fan-favourite character. Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has now weighed in on that and still seems uncertain that it will ever happen. He is, however, excited to see that there's so much interest surrounding The Hulk so perhaps that will change in the near future.
"I think that back and forth continues, and I don’t know if it will ever happen. But I will tell you, it makes me very, very happy going from a world, ten years ago, when people were questioning the viability of Hulk in a standalone film, to getting asked every other interview, ‘When will there be another standalone Hulk?'" It seems the answer to that question is one we'll have to wait for.
With the rights to a solo Hulk franchise tied up at Universal, making the movie happen is clear complicated but Disney may end up spending the money to get those back as the character's popularity rises. What do you guys think? Let us know your thoughts on this news down below.
