All those Marvel fans who love Hulk and want to see a standalone Mark Ruffalo version movie have reasons to rejoice. Thor: Ragnarok will be the first of a three-part story arc for the green goliath that will start with Thor: Ragnarok and end with the fourth Avengers film.
Making a solo film of the Green Goliath is a tricky issue considering that Universal technically owns the character. Hence The Marvel team has come up with a smart workaround. The studio has set a massive plan for Hulk this time. In a recent interview with Cinemablend, Ruffalo revealed the plan that he along with Kevin Feige had etched together.
“So basically, Kevin [Feige] pulled me aside before this, and said, ‘If you were gonna do a… if we were going to do a standalone Hulk movie, what would it be?’ And I said, ‘I think it should be this, this, this, and this and this, and ends up like this.’ And he’s like, ‘I love that. Why don’t we do that in the next three movies, starting with Thor 3 and then we go into Avengers 3 and 4.’ And I was like, ‘That sounds great!’ And so we are at the beginning of this arc,” said Ruffalo.
The big green guy’s appearance in Thor: Ragnarok trailer caught the attention of the audience as many observed that the character has been given some scene-stealing moments and also the opportunity to talk.
Audiences will get to see the character of Hulk being built in Thor: Ragnarok. The story will introduce a completely new narrative for the development of Hulk’s character development, and there’s a big reason why he finally speaks more than one or two words this time around:
Ruffalo revealed the reason for Hulk speaking up in Thor: Ragnarok. “Hulk speaking is the start to separating of these two individuals, these identities in this split-identity person, and where that’s going to end up going. So it was really interesting to me. He’s like a baby! He’s like a five-year-old or six-year-old. So he has the same syntax, he has the same world view, and so it was fun. It’s like Chris [Hemsworth] — we all got to reinvent our characters in this,” added Mark Ruffalo.
Thor: Ragnarok, directed by Taika Waititi, will release in theaters on November 3, 2017. The star cast of the film includes Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Cate Blanchett as Hela, Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/the Hulk, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Idris Elba as Heimdall, Karl Urban as Skurge, Jeff Goldblum as Grandmaster, Tessa Thompson as Valkyrie and Anthony Hopkins as Odin.
