President of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige has put all the rumors to rest in a recent interview, he said, “There are no plans for Planet Hulk anytime soon.”
“I think what’s cool about the Planet Hulk story is it’s all Hulk, Feige told IGN at advance screening of Guardians of the Galaxy.
He’s a gladiator, he’s fighting all these creatures on another world. Yes, some of those creatures show up in [Guardians of the Galaxy], which makes people think, ‘Oh, maybe it could exist.’
And maybe it could exist, someday. I don’t think that’s the first place we would go though for the very reason that you stated, which is, if we were ever able to do a standalone Hulk movie, 60 percent of the fun would be seeing Mark Ruffalo leading a Marvel movie — and that’s what we would do if we ever went down that road.”
After the first Avengers, Iron Man had his own movie, Thor had his own movie, Captain America had his own movie, and Widow and Fury were in The Winter Soldier.
So it was really about, frankly, saving somebody so that the only place you could get Hulk between Avengers movies is the next Avengers movie, so [director Joss Whedon] could continue to play with that in [Avengers: Age of Ultron]. Where we go after that, we’ll see,” he concluded.
Guardians of the Galaxy will hit theaters on August 1, 2014 in 3D and IMAX, followed by Avengers: Age Of Ultron for May 1, 2015 release.
