According to Mark Ruffalo, a solo Hulk film might be the most contradictory move that Marvel Studios could make for the character.
In a recent interview for Avengers: Age of Ultron, the Hulk actor revealed that the Green Goliath never actually wants to be around. Causing millions of dollars in property damage will do that. So, putting a spotlight on him for more than two hours wouldn't really work with the character's true desires.
“It’s a particularly hard character to make a movie about because he doesn’t want to be there, generally. It’s hard to make a movie about a guy who doesn’t want to be there,” Ruffalo said. “And he doesn’t want to do the very thing that you want him to do. So it gets a little frustrating as an audience, and there’s only so much of that.”
But Ruffalo doesn’t think that Hulk’s story shouldn’t be told. Moving beyond Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ruffalo suggested where he’d like the next chapter in Bruce Banner’s saga to head, citing the inner conflicts between Hulk and Banner.
“I think there’s a whole relationship with Banner and Hulk that needs to be discovered. Hulk is as afraid of Banner as Banner is afraid of Hulk. It’s in the comics. But films haven’t really been able to get inside of Hulk’s head,” Ruffalo told Entertainment Weekly. “The technology wasn’t available to make it nuanced enough to do that, and now it is. Both of these guys—or, obviously, the same guy—have got to come to peace somehow with each other. And I think that confrontation is building along the lines of this film.”
