wonder Studios could turnHulkinto a villain forPhase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe . The gargantuan Green Goliath has been part of the MCU since almost the beginning , as Edward Norton first played the case of Bruce Banner inThe Incredible Hulk . That was the only appearance by Norton , though , beforeMark Ruffalo involve over the rolein 2012 withThe Avengers . Ruffalo has reprised his role in four movie since then , and   his last , Avengers : Endgame , ended him in a much unlike place than he began .

The most significant change that Hulk underwent in the culminating Phase 3 film was the merging of Bruce Banner and Hulkto create Smart Hulk . The experiment manage to give him the wit of Banner and the brawn of Hulk , making him one of the most powerful fictional character in all of the MCU with his combining of smarting and strength .

Smart Hulk now haspermanent damage in his right-hand arm , which could confine what he is capable of doing , but we also have it away that he ’s not the only Hulk in the MCU . Thanks toAvengers : Endgamecreating different timelinesand confirmations that a multiverse exists , there are outright numbers of Hulks that could be brought into the MCU . As some are theorizing , this could lead to a different version of the Hulk have a go at it as Maestro being used as a villain in Phase 4 . That ’s the guinea pig of the latest Screen Rant video , which you could find at the top of this article .

Peter David and George Pérez create Maestro in 1992 for Marvel Comics . He comes from Earth-9200 , and in this alternate universe , Maestro is a combining of Banner ’s judgment and Hulk ’s strength just like Smart Hulk , but with a more evil outlook . This is   from monumental amount of nuclear radiation that come from a warfare hundreds of years in the hereafter . He rules over what is left of the human race on his Earth and becomes a potentate . Even though he is not part of the master continuity in Marvel Comics , he has sweep way of life with several major characters in various consequence , such as Spider - Man   and Wolverine .

Hulk as a baddie is one area of the character that the MCU has yet to assay , but it would be a neat new direction for a version of the case to take . Marvel appears to have jumpstart past possiblePlanet HulkandWorld War Hulkadaptations at this breaker point , but a version of those fib where Maestro is the ruler of an alternate Earth who then comes to the principal MCU timeline could be a fascinating write up . Of of course , an alternate version of Hulk could be a bit too much for audiences to take and may not even be in Marvel ’s plans at the import .   But , it would give Ruffalo a completely different iteration ofHulkto play , so if he has a desire to switch it up , then maybe Maestro is exactly what Phase 4 of the MCU could involve .
