With creators recently adding more and more characters to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law laying the foundation for any upcoming projects involving Hulk, Hulk’s cinematic future might just be around the corner. With the show’s certain surprise reveal in the final episode of season one, it’s exciting to see where the Hulk arc goes from here. This could open up the possibilities of introducing certain versions of the Hulk into the MCU, most particularly the fan-favorite storyline of World War Hulk.

Mark Ruffalo shared his thoughts on what Hulk’s future looks like and what he expects from his character. While talking to The Entertainment Weekly, Ruffalo expressed how excited he was for Hulk’s future in the MCU, hoping to see the evolution of the character, with or without him. He also referenced World War Hulk’s possibility on the big screens of the MCU.
“The cool thing about this world is that it could just be anything. Five years from now it could totally morph into anything, whatever’s pertinent at the time. I almost see him going back to ‘Berserker Hulk’ or ‘World War Hulk’. It could go anywhere. That’s the exciting part — I’ve played five different versions from beginning to now, and that’s kept it interesting for me and I hope interesting for other people.”
World War Hulk’s storyline involved an event in which The Illuminati banished Hulk from Earth. Upon his return to Earth from planet Sakaar, he swore revenge on The Illuminati. Now, seeing this plot on the big screens would be quite a treat for the fans. The day might not even be too far, especially since She-Hulk: Attorney at Law season finale introduced Hulk’s son, Skaar.

According to the comics, Skaar was the result of Hulk’s time on the planet Sakaar during the World War Hulk storyline. This could mean that World War Hulk in the MCU is most certainly possible.
In another scene, Jennifer Walters walks into the studios of Marvel, breaking the fourth wall and coming “face to face” with the AI Robot, KEVIN. She asks him to erase the “thrilling ending” where Hulk comes down from space, as it would take the attention away from her.
This hints that the particular Hulk storyline might be turned into a movie with KEVIN saying “see you on the big screen.” That certain movie could feature World War Hulk.
Not to forget that ironically, Age of Ultron and Thor: Ragnarok were both playing in the studio when Jennifer Walters walked in. Both of these movies are spanned over years that explain Skaar’s existence. We all know Marvel’s love for Easter eggs, after all. Since a whole lot of Hulk’s history has not been discussed in the MCU, it is exciting to see where the possible arc takes the viewers.
She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is streaming on Disney+.
