Hulk Movie Rumors Laid To Rest

Some rumors have been circulating through the fanboy bubble suggesting there’s going to be a stand alone Hulk Movie. As much as I would love to see this happen — it’s been confirmed by Marvel, Marvel’s golden boy Joss Whedon and the current Hulk, Mark Ruffalo — there will be no Hulk Movie.

Ruffalo stated on his own twitter account there are no plans for such a project. The actor also added he won’t even think about the raging monster until The Avengers 2.

The conjured up rumors  speculated the prospective Hulk film would follow the Planet Hulk story, already made into an animation series, where the earth strongest heroes trick Hulk and send him to destroy a distant planet without hurting any humans. On that planet, the Hulk is not alone and is captured to fight as a gladiator until he finds a way to return back to earth to enact his revenge.

Even though Whedon probably signed a non-disclosure agreement, preventing him from talking about the project, in a interview with IGN, the director couldn’t help but respond to the rumors saying, “Well, I’m not really supposed to comment, but no, that’s nonsense.”

Whedon went on to say that there’s already a story in place for the Avengers 2 and it isn’t all about the Hulk.

So, there you have it. That pretty much seals the deal right there. No stand-alone Hulk movie. Now I would like to ask the movie gods why they would make another Thor movie instead of one for the Hulk… SMH!!!

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
