Whedon thinks Hulk is a tricky character...
Geek Chocolate reports that director and writer Joss Whedon shared his thoughts on the possibility of another Marvel Studios solo-movie for The Hulk.
During the Glasgow Film Festival on Sunday, Whedon reportedly stated: "Hulk is a tricky son of a bitch. He's the Claudio of superheroes. Because the problem is it's a very popular character, but it's not a superhero. Half of it's a superhero, half of it's a werewolf. And you can't structure it like a superhero movie, you can't light it like a superhero movie. How do you develop that? It would be extremely difficult. The one thing you would have in your favor would be Mark Ruffalo. But right now I don't know if they have plans to do that or not, because he works so well as part of a greater whole, but by himself, it's tough. I don't envy the guys who went before."
Recent reports by Latino Review claiming Marvel Studios was planning a Planet Hulk spinoff movie as well as a third Avengers movie that would adapt the plot of World War Hulk were inaccurate and untrue according to Ain't It Cool News.
The Hulk will likely next appear in The Avengers 2 slated for May 1, 2015.
