Mark Ruffalo Would Like To See “Hulk vs Wolverine” In The MCU
With MCU films planned out far into the future, it would appear that top Marvel Executives are still trying to piece together the next phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and how it all will fit together. It has been rumored that the likes of Doctor Doom and Galactus will be making there presence known as the next “big bad’s” of the MCU.
With the recent Marvel/Fox merger, things have been shaken up a bit. The merger will allow Fox properties such as X-Men, Fantastic Four, Deadpool and others to appear along side the Avengers. More than likely, Marvel will take a page out of DC’s newly found formula and produce some “Stand-alone” films. One film in particular that would be interesting, is a live action, “Hulk vs Wolverine.” How this would work continuity wise is beyond me. Considering, the last time we saw “MCU Hulk,” he had sacrificed his arm and a lot of his strength to wield the infinity gauntlet and wish all of Thanos’s victims back to life. Nevertheless, it would appear that Mark Ruffalo would still love to see Hulk return. He recently shared a conversation he had with Marvel head, Kevin Feige.
He said: “Kevin Feige just asked me last week if I had any more ideas or stories for the Hulk, and I said yeah, I think there’s still some stories to tell. And he said, ‘Well why don’t you come in and tell me about them and we’ll see if we can find a place for you in the Marvel universe?’”
Ruffalo added: “Hulk vs. Wolverine, I’d like to see that. Hulk vs. Wolverine.”
We more than likely won’t see Hugh Jackman return to battle Hulk in the film, but it would still be fun to see two relatively indestructible characters battle it out on screen. What do you think, would you like to see Hulk return to battle Logan? Or would you rather see Hulk follow a different storyline.

Plot Summary:
Still reeling from the loss of Gamora, Peter Quill rallies his team to defend the universe and one of their own – a mission that could mean the end of the Guardians if not successful.
James Gunn’s DCU lineup has been revealed. Gunn says his new direction for the DCU will be an eight to ten year process of films and animation, that will all tie in together. Even using the same voice actors for animation in the live-action versions of the characters.
“One of our strategies is that we take our diamond characters — Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman– and we use that to help prop up other characters that people don’t know. Like what happened with the Guardians (of the Galaxy) in some way. Like taking teams like The Authority, which is I know is just as spectacular idea for a film that is completely different take on superheroes. Because it’s really connected to Superman. It’s about to use those well-known properties to help lead into lesser known properties.”
“We’re going to promise that everything from our first project forward is going to be unified. But we’ve gotten very lucky for the next four projects. I will say here that Flash is probably one of the greatest superhero movies ever made.”
Creature Commandos — will be an animated tv series: “Animation will lead into live action and back into animation. It’s a way to tell stories that are gigantic and huge without spending $50M an episode.” Says Gunn.
Waller — Will be an HBO Max Live-Action Series

Lanterns — HBO Max live action series. “Our vision for this is True Detective. It’s terrestrial-based, it’s got two of our favorite Green Lanterns –Hal Jordan and John
Stewart…it plays a really big role in the main story that we’re telling across our film and Television. This is a very important show for us.”
The Authority — “There’s great wildstorm characters that were popular for a long-time and we’re incorporating them into the DCU,”
Paradise Lost — HBO Max live action series. “It’s going to be a Games of Thrones-ish story about Themyscira, the home of the Amazons and the birthplace of Wonder Woman. This drama is really about the political intrigue behind the society of all women. How did that come about? What’s the beautiful truths and the ugly truths behind all of that and what’s the scheming like between all the power players in that society?” The series will take place before the birth of Diana
The Brave and the Bold — This story will be Gunn’s Batman outside of Matt Reeves story. “who is a little son of a bitch assassin, murderer who Batman takes on, who is Batman’s actual son that he doesn’t know exists for the first 8-10 years of his life….it’s a strange father and son story about the two of them and based on Grant Morrison’s run of the Batman.”
Booster Gold — HBO Max TV series is about a loser from the future, who uses future technology to come back to today, and pretend to be a superhero. “Imposter syndrome as a superhero,”
Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow “In our series we see the difference between Superman who was sent to Earth and raised by loving parents from the time he was an infant, versus Supergirl who was raised on a rock, a chip off Krypton, and watched everyone around her die and be killed in terrible ways for the first 14 years of her life, and then came to Earth when she was a young girl. She’s much more hardcore, she’s not exactly the Supergirl we’re use to seeing.”
Swamp Thing: — Will be a dark horror take on the character, that will tie in to the rest of the DCU
