Complicated distribution rights issues with Universal Pictures means Disney can't make a Hulk movie, but if Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige want it to happen, you have to believe it could become a reality. Alas, Mark Ruffalo has now confirmed in an interview with Variety that there are no plans for the mighty Avenger to get his own solo flick.
He did, however, confirm that there have been talks about The Hulk appearing in Disney+'s She-Hulk.
"There's some talk of having Banner/Hulk show up in [the Disney Plus series] She-Hulk," Ruffalo revealed. "If we come up with something good, that would be really interesting. Right now that's about it. That's all there is on the table." Clearly, it will take more than a glorified cameo appearance to convince the actor this small screen role is worth his time.
Ruffalo went on to reflect on his time as the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Hulk, and admitted that it was The Avengers director Joss Whedon and star Robert Downey Jr. who talked him into the role.
"I did try to talk them out of casting me...I said, 'I don't know if I'm the right guy, I've never done anything like this.' Between Joss and Robert, they were pretty convincing that I could do it. I was scared. I was really scared. I'm still scared. The technological aspect of it makes it really hard to work that way. I struggle with it all the time. But my motto is make fear your friend."
"Just keep pushing yourself into those places where you feel scared or challenged," he adds.
