The MCU has been alive and kicking for more than a decade now. It kicked off with Iron Man and slowly picked up a collection of superheroes over ten years of multiplex dominating movies. Then they all came together to close out the Infinity Saga in Endgame. Along the way, nearly every major character was featured in their own movie, or collection of movies, culminating in Black Widow’s long-awaited, pandemic-delayed solo flick.

There was one core member of the crew who never got his own movie: The Hulk. But that may be about to change.

On Thursday, a website called The GWW broke the rumor that Marvel is developing a movie version of the celebrated World War Hulk storyline, featuring the big green guy. The article states that one of the reasons the Hulk hasn’t had his own movie – unless you count Ed Norton’s outing, which is technically a part of the MCU mythology (hence the Abomination appearing in Shang-Chi, and William Hurt’s General Ross continuing to feature in Avengers movies) but has otherwise been largely disregarded – is that Universal held the rights. Apparently, according to a 2020 rumor, Disney has them now.

The World War Hulk movie is rumored to be coming together at the end of this year and is meant to build off of the events, and the expanded Hulk-based universe, of the forthcoming Disney+, show She-Hulk, starring Tatyana Maslany. Mark Ruffalo will supposedly appear in the show, which will focus on She-Hulk’s exploits as a lawyer.

How the show leads into the space-based WWH storyline is yet to be seen – largely because we haven’t seen the show yet! – but odds are even if this rumor is true, Kevin Feige and Marvel will have to find a new take on the source material to make it fit within the existing MCU framework. The original storyline features characters that don’t yet exist on-screen.

And that’s only if the rumors are true. If they are, surely we’ll hear something soon. Especially since Mark Ruffalo is known to have loose lips!

For years, Quentin Tarantino has said he was going to direct ten films and then hang it up and move on to other things. After writing and directing 2019’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood he has devoted his time to writing books (including a novelization of the movie), converting Once Upon a Time… into a play, and conducting interviews where he again suggested that his tenth film could be his last. Could that film be Kill Bill 3?

If number 10 is to be the end of his storied filmmaking career, capping it with the third installment – or second, if you count Kill Bill 1 and 2 as one film – would make some sense. QT has often suggested a follow-up where Vivica Fox’s character’s daughter sought her own revenge on Uma Thermon’s character, bringing The Bride’s own revenge story full circle. Recently, when receiving a lifetime achievement award at the Rome Film Festival, a reporter asked him if that could still be his 10th movie answered: “Why not?”

“But first I want to make a comedy,” he continued, mentioning his desire to direct a comedy-Western.

“It’s not like my next movie. It’s a piece of something else that I’m thinking about doing — and I’m not going to describe what it is,” Tarantino said. “But part of this thing, there is supposed to be a Spaghetti Western in it.”

“I’m looking forward to shooting that [thing] because it’s going to be really fun. Because I want to shoot it in the Spaghetti Western style where everybody’s speaking a different language. The Mexican Bandido is an Italian; the hero is an American; the bad sheriff is a German; the Mexican saloon girl is Israeli. And everybody is speaking a different language. And you [the actors] just know: OK, when he’s finished talking then I can talk,” Tarantino laughed while describing the project.

While Tarantino’s movies certainly have humor in them – “I shot Marvin in the face!” – few would describe them as full blown comedies. Whether the director can pull off what sounds like an ambitious, and odd, comedic Spaghetti western will have to be seen to be believed. But he hasn’t had many misfires yet.
