In early February an epic rumor surrounding the potential future of Mark Ruffalo’s role in Marvel Studios’ franchise led us to believe that after The Avengers 2 in 2015, the Hulk character would get a chance to smash solo once again. The scoop detailed a plan involved The Avengers 2 teeing up a Planet Hulk movie that would in turn factor into the story of The Avengers 3, taking advantage of Ruffalo’s six-picture contract.
The rumors seemed plausible considering the fan support for Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner in The Avengers and the promising words from Marvel Studios President of Production Kevin Feige, who said the Planet Hulk (and World War Hulk) storylines were certainly of interest. However, there’s been nothing but denials and contradictions to this report since.
