-Hulk series still being developed for next year

Is this separate from the Eath's Mightiest Heroes-esque cartoon series or is this what they're referring to? I haven't been following.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Yay about Punisher. I say they heavily retool the Hulk series to not be about Bruce Banner, because a) you just know another Banner film is gonna happen, and b) the stuff in the comics about other Hulks is pretty neat.

 

[JdFoX187]

Jessica Jones sounded like it could be decent. I'm not so sure a Hulk TV series could work. Glad to hear the Punisher series got passed up. That was such a fucking terrible idea.

 

[Nesotenso]

Glad Punisher got the axe. The premise sounded terrible.

It's a live action series, developed by Guillermo del Toro.

You're not a fan of a neutered procedural with Frank Castle being a cop that investigates crimes and then "punishes" them at the end of the episode?

Iris Elba is confirmed for Thor 2.

[Good Job Bob]

Why would he hope for something that's impossible. He's already booked for this year, Marvel are busy too. It doesn't matter what it sounded like, because there's facts that show he wasn't talking about Ant-Man.

From /Film:

That sounds like he hopes to shoot Ant-Man this year. But how can that be, given the announced September shoot date for The World’s End? In a brief email exchange we put the question to Wright: what film was he talking about, specifically, in that quote on the podcast? He said,

So as not to jinx things, I am going to remain spectacularly vague on this. Let’s just say I hope to shoot some Antman & World’s End this year.

Oh wow. That's very surprising to see. OK, I'll shut up now.

 

[The Anti-Monitor]

Can't believe I'm actually looking forward to an Ant-Man movie. Given the director it is highly possible to be the best solo movie since Iron Man.

Hmmm.. good job bob, good job.

I think it has more promise than any other new character introduction simply due to the fact that they KNOW how much they need to 'sell' it. Maybe even more than Thor's costumes and Asgard lore.

I hope they nail it, if not simply for A2's sake. Can't wait to see how they use Pym and off Lang will even make an appearance.

I really don't get their TV deals, has there been even a single TV appearance involving the MCU? Hell, I can't remember any recent Marvel TV shows at all, actually.

Unless we're talking about cartoons, :lol.

Not yet.

These shows wouldn't necessarily have been connected to the MCU, though. Jessica Jones would have been, whereas Hulk will be in its own continuity.

James Badge Dale joins IRON MAN 3 cast

whoa

 

[Hawkian]

Who the fuck is Coldblood?

 

[Tobor]

Who the fuck is Coldblood?

Not part of Extremis, that's for sure. Maybe it's just the name Savin, and unrelated?

Never mind, maybe he was part of it? I read a different article that said he wasn't.

 

[crimsonspider89]

I think we may have our Hank Pym....

Seriously. That guy could pull off Hank like no one else.

 

[Deleted member 13876]

Hmm. From Eric Savin's wiki.

While still a Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Army at Camp Killian, Eric Savin was put in charge of Project: Ultra-Tech. There he met the love of his life, Lieutenant Gina Dyson. While on patrol, Savin stepped onto a freshly planted mine which blew him into pieces. He was dead for 2.3 minutes. Gina immediately performed cybernetic surgery on him.

For the movie they could very easily refit that to: Gets blown up. Maya Hansen saves him using experimental Extremis tech. Goes insane from proceduren establishing the danger of Extremis by having it corrupt a good man. Done.

They might blend this dude in with Mallon.

 

[Dram]

Seems like a character that hasn't been used in awhile.

That's what I was thinking too.

He definitely, definitely wasn't part of Extremis. My instincts tell me he has had nothing to do with Iron Man before.
edit: Oh, he gets fucked up in Civil War...

Why I see it, Mandarin recruits this guy who is an Iraq vet fucked up by a landmine. Juices him with the prototype extremis and he gets a madon for Stark because Stark built weapons.

Sounds plausible. Writing one of these movies must be interesting with such a large back catalog to pull from.

"You guys have a character that gets blown up and put back together?"

"Sure, here's a list."

I love that they aren't afraid to go balls deep into the catalog.

 

[noah111]

So what is the possibility of Ant-Man easter eggs in IM3, or even a direct mention by name (ala Thor 1)? I fully expect some kind of tie-in or easter egg with CA2, though (since it'll have been announced by then for sure).

 

[soul creator]

Will Green or Black Arrow and Hawkman be in Avengers 2?

 

[nomis]

Will Green or Black Arrow and Hawkman be in Avengers 2?

Did they ever even call him Hawkeye? Skarsgard called him "the Hawk" in the opening scene, I wouldn't be surprised if the average moviegoer walked out uncertain what he was actually called.

 

[noah111]

Natasha called out 'Hawkeye' once when in battle. It's like their code names since their agents.

In the back of my head, I was thinking the guy playing Galaga would be (present day) Antman lol.

This is Marvel's official timeline for the MCU:

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

Here's a neat thing someone on reddit noticed in Iron Man 2

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Angie Harmon wants to play She Hulk in a movie.

And she’d be fine wearing She-Hulk’s skimpy costume? ”I would rock that like there is no tomorrow. I would kill that outfit. I’d put these 36Cs on display. Boom!” she said. “And what about her libido? That’s my favorite part. She-Hulk, bed! She-Hulk, screw! Can you imagine?

It is actually a pretty neat fit.

 

[Good Job Bob]

Could work, she'd have to bulk up big time though obviously.

 

[The Anti-Monitor]

Don't give me hope for something that will never happen, Shulkie is too awesome for the big screen.

 

[PhoncipleBone]

Could work, she'd have to bulk up big time though obviously.

She would. She is already very fit, just get a good regimen to get her bulked up and paint her green.

 

[crimsonspider89]

No, they need to keep her the same size and use foam muscle type effects for when she goes She Hulk. Since you know she is a lawyer when not hulked out.

 

[KevinCow]

Isn't She-Hulk supposed to be like 7 feet tall though?

I feel like She-Hulk would have to be CGI like Hulk if they ever did her. She'd look weird next to Hulk if they just painted a real chick green.

 

[The Anti-Monitor]

Well of course she'd have to be CG. What were you guys suggesting, to have a real life person painted green? Then what, literally the only difference when she's normal is the color?

 

[Clayton Bigsby]

Well of course she'd have to be CG. What were you guys suggesting, to have a real life person painted green? Then what, literally the only difference when she's normal is the color?

That is what Harmon was suggesting. Seems she is kinda clueless about the character.

 

[crimsonspider89]

CG would have to be done on par of Avatar which would be hard. Truth speaking. Since She Hulk TALKS a lot.

But could be done. Honestly, if CG style they need to use a smaller build actress to play Jen pre transformation.

 

[Good Job Bob]

Well of course she'd have to be CG. What were you guys suggesting, to have a real life person painted green? Then what, literally the only difference when she's normal is the color?

Yes?

They can use the same method to make her seem weak and scrawny like they did Steve in Capt America whenever she turns normal.

CGI She-Hulk wouldn't work.

 

[The Anti-Monitor]

Yes?

They can use the same method to make her seem weak and scrawny like they did Steve in Capt America whenever she turns normal.

CGI She-Hulk wouldn't work.

To me, it seems weird people think it'd be easier to have this girl bulk up considerably, and then alter her anyways so she seems 7 feet and green, than just have her play Jennifer Walters and do the whole She-Hulk in CGI except maybe her face.

But oh well. She-Hulk is never happening anyways.

 

[crimsonspider89]

I would rather they use a foam type bodysuit. Fake muscles and if needed fake bust.

Just seems like it would work better.
