This better not be rushed.
I would rather they didn't touch on Planet Hulk at all, honestly. Leave the door open for a full movie on that story at some point later.
My understanding is they can't do a solo planet hulk movie due to the fact Universal has the rights to all solo Hulk movies. Hulk can only appear now in MCU as part of another movie.
"The Defenders: World War Hulk" as a sequel. Bam, problem solved. I mean, they use MSG as a Battle Arena, why not have characters like Luke Cage, Iron Fist and DD be forced to fight to save the city. Depending on how they end Thor, you can pull a few connecting threads to give Hulk and Warbound a reason to return to Earth.
Gimme some god damn Beta Ray Bill and I'll be happy
Anyone know how long Universal has Hulk movie rights?
Universal has film rights for solo hulk movies, which is why Marvel can use him in ensemble movies like avengers and such
He blew his chance.
Iirc that movie is considered cannon with the MCU
It absolutely is. Comes right after IM2. RDJ is even in it after the credits talking to Ross (who was also in civil war) about the avengers.
And I know Norton blew his chance lol. My question is how did Marvel do a solo movie if they are only allowed to do ensemble ones, like Drai said a few posts up.
Because Universal had the rights at the time and Marvel had zero clout because Iron Man was their only property.

It is true that Universal still holds the distribution rights to any future Hulk movies, but the character rights and licenses firmly belong to Marvel after Universal didn’t act on a sequel to Ang Lee’s 2003 Hulk. What that means is that Universal has “the right of first refusal,” to future Hulk films. For example, if Marvel decides they want to make The Incredible Hulk 2, or make rumors about Planet Hulk or World War Hulk come true, Universal has first crack at deciding whether or not they want to distribute. If they refuse, that doesn’t mean the film won’t move forward, it just means another studio will distribute instead.
