Don’t hold your breath for a Hulk solo movie. According to Mark Ruffalo, who plays the big green guy in the MCU, Marvel boss Kevin Feige has ruled out Bruce Banner ever getting his own movie.
“Kevin [asked me] ‘What would you like to do?’ He said, ‘What would you do if you had a standalone Hulk movie?'” Ruffalo said at theSanta Barbara International Film Festival. “And I said, ‘Well, I’d like to take him from this raging maniac to kind of this integrated character.’ And he said, ‘Okay, we’ll do that over the course of four movies. We’ll never give you a standalone Hulk, let’s just get that – I don’t mean to burst your bubble… but that’s not happening. So, we’ll do it over four movies, how’s that sound?'”
As for whether that’s still the case Ruffalo replied: “As far as I know. I could talk more about it but I’ve been told not to.”
Ruffalo was last seen as Hulk inShe-Hulk, which revealed he has a son namedSkaar. When we’ll next see the duo is a mystery for now (though Ruffalo said at the festival that he’ll be appearing in Captain America 4,Variety’s sources indicate he misspoke).
There has been a Hulk solo movie in the MCU already, of course:The Incredible Hulkreleased back in 2008. That film, though, starred Edward Norton as Bruce Banner.
