Spoilers Marvel Cinematic Universe spoiler-heavy speculation thread

[Christopher]

Mark Ruffalo's been meeting with Kevin Feige to discuss future MCU Hulk stories, and he'd like one of them to be Hulk vs Wolverine.

Come to think of it, that would be a nice, nostalgic way to introduce Wolverine to the MCU -- as someone sent to fight the Hulk, just like in his comics debut.

Although how to reconcile that with post-Endgame Hulk? He's not exactly in "smash" mode anymore, either mentally or physically.

Radiation damage from the gauntlet.

Radiation damage from the gauntlet.

Yeah, that's what I mean. The Gauntlet radiation was apparently beyond even the Hulk's regenerative ability, so Bruce's whole right arm is evidently damaged beyond repair. The impression I got from the end of the film was that his fighting days were over.

Sorry, I meant it could degrade his intelligence.

Real radiation just kills people, so it doesn't have to be logical what comic book radiation does, really.

He can be undergoing a treatment to fix his arm and it puts him into "savage Hulk" mode.

How intelligent was Hulk during their original confrontation?
If they are going to do more Hulk stories, they'll probably come up with some to get him back into SMASHing shape.

By that point, he was in his familiar childlike persona. Though IIRC, Wolverine's personality didn't yet bear much resemblance to the version we know.

 

[JD]

OK, there've been so many different versions of the Hulk over the years, I wasn't sure which one they were using at the time

Child like Hulk had a pretty long run, Most of the Silver Age thu the Bronze Age and beyond.

Wolverine's claws were part of his gloves before Chris Claremont worked on the character.

Well, they were intended to be, but they were never explicitly shown that way, so there was no inconsistency.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

Regardless of how they handle the fight (obviously neither of them have to be the same state of mind of the original comic), it would be a very nifty way of introducing Wolverine into the MCU considering that was his first appearance.

I haven’t seen a thread about this so if there is one, I must of missed it. Are they still doing a Scarlet Witch series for Disney+ and when is that going to be released. I like Elizabeth Olsen so seeing her own series is kinda cool.

WandaVision is currently filming ( How Vision will fit in is currently unknown, but he'll definitely be there). It is said to have a 50s sitcom vibe combined with Marvel spectacle. Randall Park will reprise Jimmy Woo from Ant-Man and the Wasp and Kat Dennings is reprising Darcy Lewis from the Thor movies. Rumor has the first of characters aquired from FOX appearing-- the witch Agatha Harkness.

It's actually the beginning of a trilogy, continuing in the Loki series and concluding in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and Wanda will be in that movie.

I was curious so I looked it up on Wikipedia. I was surprised there will only be 6 episodes but if it’s a trilogy that makes sense. I get this feeling the shows mighty cover the same time period so it does sync up with the movies.

Of course they don't have to be in the same state of mind, but what I'm saying is that Bruce's state of mind and body at the end of Endgame isn't all that conducive to getting into physical fights at all anymore. Although I suppose they could have an attempt to heal him go wrong and revert him to his old self, but that would be a backward step in his character development. (Unless it turns him into a Joe Fixit-style gray Hulk, maybe.)

I really don't see that at all. I mean I've never been a big FF fan so it wouldn't bother me, but I don't see how Thing should ever be played by someone who doesn't have a deep or gravelly voice at all and also is most famous for his upbeat, quirky man-Child characters.

Have you heard him in Tropic Thunder?

Youtube clips tell me he sounded pretty much the same as in the rest of his career.

I think the point is less about Black's voice and more about his acting range. There's no requirement that a character has to sound a certain way. Charles Xavier was a New York native in the comics, but they still cast an Englishman in the role. And if you insist on the Thing having a deep, gravelly voice, then it could be processed to sound deeper, like they did with Ruffalo's voice in Thor: Ragnarok.
