Surprise Character to be in Thor: Ragnarok

[Growl]

This is really exciting. Ragnarok is going to have big implications on Marvel's CU, and this is a great way to up the scale and get butts in seats. Thor 3 is going to be storywise to Phase 3 what Winter Soldier was to Phase 2, and I love the possible brofection that could come with this two meeting up in deep space after watching our heroes grow distrustful of each other in Civil War. 

 

 

 

The last time we saw ol' Bruce Banner/Hulk, he was flying off into the sunset in a Quinjet, which supposedly crashed in the ocean somewhere with no sign of the man or beast to be seen. This left a big question mark as to when or where the Hulk would reappear in the MCU prior to the obvious inclusion in THE AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR films. Well, wonder no more, my friends.

Hot on the heels of NYCC, we’ve gotten word from our inside sources that THOR: RAGNAROK will see Chris Hemsworth’s Thor team up with none other than Mark Ruffalo’s HULK for the Odinson's third solo film, which finds the God of Thunder facing what amounts to the Norse Apocalypse. Only this time out he'll have some help from a fellow Avenger.

Mark Ruffalo joins Tom Hiddleston (also confirmed by our sources) and Jaimie Alexander in RAGNAROK, which we’ve also heard will involve a “distant planet” that is "not Asgard and not Earth." What does that mean? Certainly the theory will be made that this is where Marvel will work in the long-rumored Planet Hulk storyline, and although we can’t completely verify that, we can’t completely deny it either. I’ll leave it to you on how you want to place your bets, but I know where my money is going. Regardless, Ruffalo is on board. As to how much time he’ll spend as Hulk vs. Banner, we can’t say, only that he’s absolutely part of the supporting cast and will feature prominently.

Interesting. 

Just a side note. Hulk appears to be smarter after SW messed with his head. I would cite the main point as, he's flying a jet and has enough ability to cut off the tv monitor instead of just smashing it. The other is right before he is knocked out by Hulkbuster. He's looking around at the damage he's caused and he's remorseful.

That's all I got. Nothing from the dark web.

Can't be any worse than Thor 2. Planet hulk really needs to be a Marvel film or story line in a franchise at some point.

World War Hulk was amazing as the aftermath. I remember reading those books. A movie adaptation would have to be done right though.

This has been confirmed now.  I'm sure it will lead to a Planet Hulk movie.  Most people think that's really the only way to do a standalone Hulk movie right.

I thought i mentioned. I've not been drinking enough I guess. Universal is to receive proceeds for any solo Hulk movie

They just have the choice to distribute or not, they wouldn't get all the proceeds.   Marvel can still make the movie and Universal distributes and it wouldn't be a big deal for Marvel.  The big reason is because the past ones didn't do well and he's been a better supporting character.

I think it's conceivable you find elements of Planet Hulk in Ragnarok.

Thor is out exploring when he stumbles across Hulk on a distant planet, banished there by SHIELD or such, perhaps doing some gladiatorial fighting or the like, and then they team up to focus on the real threat of the film.
