‘Captain America: Brave New World’ Ending and Post-Credits Scene Allegedly Lay Groundwork for Major ‘World War Hulks’ Project
Speculation surrounding a potential ‘World War Hulk’ movie has lingered for years without any clear outcomes. Recently, Mark Ruffalo disclosed that Marvel Studios never planned to develop a solo film for him, primarily due to intricate rights complications resulting from a prolonged conflict with Universal.
However, the inability to produce a standalone Hulk movie does not preclude the character from evolving within other MCU projects.
Daniel Richtman, a prominent industry insider, recently asserted that the ending and post-credits scenes of ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ are paving the way for ‘World War Hulks’ while also tying into the broader Multiverse Saga.
It seems that connections to both ‘World War Hulks’ and the Multiverse were introduced during extensive reshoots, as the original version of the film did not resonate well with test audiences.
So, what evidence supports this theory? Currently, we only have rumors to rely on since nothing has been officially confirmed. Recently, the entire plot of ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ reportedly leaked online, revealing a surprising character addition: Amadeus Cho, portrayed by Logan Kim.
Amadeus Cho would mark the MCU’s fourth Hulk, joining Bruce Banner, She-Hulk, and Thaddeus Ross’s Red Hulk. Additionally, the film touches on the topic of adamantium, with various world superpowers competing for its potential benefits.
Several months ago, we explored an intriguing theory proposed by Alex Perez from Cosmic Circus.
According to Alex Perez, Marvel Studios has been laying the groundwork for a so-called “World War” storyline. This narrative has been gradually established across various projects, including ‘Spider-Man: Far From Home,’ ‘WandaVision,’ ‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,’ ‘Black Widow,’ ‘Eternals,’ ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home,’ ‘Ms. Marvel,’ ‘She-Hulk: Attorney At Law,’ ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,’ and ‘Secret Invasion.’
The storyline, which has been simmering in the background, centers around global concerns regarding the rising number of superheroes following the events of ‘Endgame.’ With no active Avengers to rely on, nations are scrambling to develop their own superhuman soldiers or teams to protect themselves from emerging threats.
Tensions are evident in France’s covert attempts to acquire vibranium from Wakanda, the United States’ secretive operations, and the Department of Damage Control’s handling of superhuman incidents.
The story is set to reach its climax in projects like ‘Captain America: Brave New World,’ where countries aggressively pursue their superhuman agendas, ultimately leading to the creation of their own Hulks across the globe.
Marvel Studios appears to be setting the stage for a World War Hulks storyline, where Bruce Banner confronts his deepest fears as governments manufacture their own Hulks. This conflict could lead to the return of the Savage Hulk and a climactic showdown between Banner and a newly introduced Hulk.
While we can’t verify the legitimacy of these rumors, given Marvel’s tendency to keep tight-lipped about future projects, all we can do is wait. Have something to add? Let us know in the comments below!
