Where will The Volatile Avenger head next in the Marvel Cinematic Universe...?We've already had it confirmed by Marvel Studios that their 'Phase Two' series of Avengers standalone/ensemble movies will consist of Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Guardians Of The Galaxy, Ant-Man and of course The Avengers 2, but even with this revelation always came one key question- where's the Hulk? Mark Ruffalo's brilliant rendition of the character certainly offered more scope for expansion, yet we've heard nothing of a standalone threequel for the green brute. The studio's executive producer Kevin Feige has started to provide answers, speculating on where the Hulk could develop into the future...
- ON A STANDALONE MOVIE- "Do I think Hulk can carry a movie and be as entertaining as he was in Avengers Assemble? I do believe that, I do believe he absolutely could. We certainly are not even going to attempt that until [after] Avengers 2, so there's a lot of time to think about it."
- ON THE POTENTIAL STORYLINE- "I don't think there's a lot that we couldn't do someday, as the cinematic universe continues to grow and expand and get as big as the comic book universe. Planet Hulk is a cool story. World War Hulk is a cool story."
- ON THE RISKS- "I think there's pitfalls of continuity-overload, and mythology getting so dense that it almost collapses in on itself. It happens every few decades or so in the comics. Apart from that, I'd say everything is on the table."
For now, then, don't expect a new Hulk flick until at least 2016, but at least we know Mark Ruffalo will return as the character in The Avengers 2 in 2015. The imminent 'Phase Two' films are Iron Man 3- out in May 2013- and Thor: The Dark World, out November 2013.
