And sort of that's my main gig that's that's that's sort of always what
i wanted to do have you had any conversations with
mark ruffalo who's also in your category and the internet's kind of going crazy
that wolverine and the hulk are up against each other once again
i tried to reach out to him he's not taking my calls so i guess
i'm somehow laying the track for another feud here which thank goodness
we're not in the same room together i mean that drag down i'm fighting
on camera actually i think i'm laughing because
mark's a very good friend of mine and i actually haven't spoken to him about it
um he's absolutely astonishing in his i mean i think he's just one of
the best actors of certainly of our generation has you
know always has been so but wolverine would beat him for sure
let's just be very clear well he's going to pause absolutely yeah
for sure it just it just knocked he he would literally
cut him off at the knees i didn't i don't know if you know this
but uh maybe that the wolverine actually appeared first in
a hulk comic he was like uh last page
some guy coming so it was the hulk series that he appeared and so that's
where that sort of feud came from and then wolverine sort of really took
on this whole life so yeah i'm sure the hulk is very jealous
Welcome back everyone it's charlie this is going to be my new marvel wolverine
video as you see hugh jackman there talking about hulk versus wolverine
movies so we'll break it down there's a bunch
of funny easter eggs in there i love that he knows his history too he knows
all about wolverine and hulk's history in the comics
if you're new to the channel be sure to subscribe to get all the videos we'll do
a new amazon giveaway all you have to do to enter is be a subscriber and let me
know where you want them to introduce the new
version of the wolverine in the marvel cinematic universe movies
the really cool thing about all this is that mark ruffalo has actually been
working on getting some hulk vs wolverine stuff going in the mcu i'll
just number these as we go along starting with the really big stuff first
number five so hugh jackman being interviewed here
for some upcoming awards where he's competing against mark ruffalo for their
recent work it is cool to know that they're friends
in real life even though they're rivals in this sense
and they talk about the rivalry between the hulk and wolverine in the comics
and the upcoming rivalry in future marvel phase 4 marvel phase 5 movies
since marvel got all those x-men characters back they can do a more comic
book authentic backstory for the new version
of wolverine the mcu fox could do all the weapon x stuff but
they could never do any of the hulk or avengers captain america weapons plus
related stuff so you're missing a huge part of wolverine's origin story so the
interviewer asks him if he's ever got into it with mark ruffalo as friends
about hulk versus wolverine and he goes on to joke about who would actually win
in that fight like wolverine would win hands down of course hugh jackman is
going to say that wolverine would win and he has
won many times in the past just think of old man logan when he let himself get
eaten by the older twisted version of the hulk
and just clawed his way out and even though hugh jackman admitted
that when he originally took the role as wolverine he didn't know
anything about wolverines in real life he didn't think it was a real animal
and he didn't know anything about his comic book origin but over the years he
eventually learned all that stuff and now he knows about hulk's connection to
wolverine's original debut in the comics so number four the story that he's
talking about during that clip wolverine showing up as the shadowy figure
revealed at the end of an incredible hulk comic book
is actually from incredible hulk number 180 he had been dispatched by the us
government and the canadian government to take down the incredible hulk who had
crossed over the border into canada it was just on this big rampage
then in the next issue incredible hulk number 181 that's where you actually
full-on see wolverine for the first time in his costume and they beat the crap
out of each other and it becomes the beginning of a
long-running rivalry between the two of them with them having a bunch of
rematches in different comics through the years
then what happened after that original debut in the incredible hulk comic book
is eventually marvel created more of a backstory for wolverine because he
became a super popular character like hugh jackman says the character kind of
went on to have his own life they reckoned in all the weapon x stuff
and then later they also tweaked that a little more to introduce the concept of
the weapons plus program which tied wolverine's origins way back
to captain america's origin in the super soldier program in the
1940s so it's all about connecting wolverine's origin story to pre-existing
avengers character origins in number three if you haven't seen it
they've actually already adapted the original hulk vs wolverine fight from
incredible hulk 181 to an animated movie it's a really short
movie it's just called hulk vs wolverine it's exactly what it sounds like
obviously most of us want kevin feige and marvel to get to something similar
in the mcu movies eventually they've actually been working up to that
moment for longer than you think there are actually a bunch of wolverine
easter eggs and references connecting him to mcu hulk going all the way back
to the marvel phase 1 movies like the incredible hulk movie in captain america
the first avenger movie with chris evans the incredible hulk easter egg is a
little more relevant to what's happening during marvel phase 4 with the new
movies in the disney plus series like falcon and winter soldier but it's just
a continuation of more easter eggs from captain america the first avenger
so you can kind of see that kevin feige has been trying to lay the track work
for wolverine and the mcu for a long long time 10 plus years almost
during captain america the first avenger they do the captain america origin story
everybody knows it super soldier program later in that movie because wolverine
james howlett was alive and fought during world war
ii kevin feige said that he tried to get a hugh jackman cameo in this captain
america scene of him rescuing all the howling commandos
wolverine would not have been a howling commando he would have just been another
regular soldier trying to keep his mutant powers on the
dl obviously you can guess the reason why he didn't actually show up in the
movie why that wound up not happening because it was when fox was still
planning more wolverine spin-off movies in the vein of wolverine origins
in the wolverine after that the number two later in the incredible hulk movie
thunderbolt ross reveals to the abomination that he himself
turned the original super soldier program because it was a military
program into the weapons plus program or it
evolved the program continuing to work to try and enhance
u.s soldiers for combat that's the whole point of the weapons plus
program the super soldier program bigger better soldiers
he also revealed that he had been lying to bruce banner who had been working for
him with his gamma research and the purpose of his gamma research was
actually part of the weapons plus program to make
bigger better soldiers he was going to use that gamma research
in combination with the diluted form of the super soldier serum that he was
pulling out of those cryo tanks dr reinstein that you see on the label
here that's actually the true name of dr erskine the person who
created the original super soldier serum and gave it to captain america
that doesn't necessarily make the hulk one of the weapons plus but you could
argue that he kind of is one because he accidentally got his powers
during the weapons plus program we all know wolverine is called weapon x
but the x actually stands for roman numeral 10. he's the 10th
version of the weapons plus program the reason why he was created in canada
is because the canadians became a lesser part of the later weapons plus
experiments but because the mcu tries to simplify a
lot of characters backstories just to make it easier to digest
the new version of wolverine and the new version of the weapon x program in the
mcu can be something that thunderbolt ross
is involved with in a much bigger way during the falcon and winter
soldier series which hopefully we'll get to see before the end of the year
a huge part of the plot is the weapons plus program being reactivated
in falcon in winter soldier trying to stop it like look at us agent here he
gets a version of that super soldier serum and is part of the weapons plus
program thunderbolt ross reactivates so that'll
just be the continuation of what you saw during incredible hulk on the path to
weapon x and while we're talking about weapon x
stuff that program weapons plus is also the path to red hulk
thunderbolt ross in the thunderbolts team the number one even though hugh
jackman has said that he's kind of retired from being wolverine and doesn't
plan on doing a ton more movies mark ruffalo has said that he's actually
talked to marvel about doing a hulk vs wolverine project
he's been pitching kevin feige on new movies and incredible hulk revival
disney plus series the one thing that makes it harder for
them to do a hulk vs wolverine legit movie
is because universal still holds part of the rights to the hulk
characters so they can't really do a hulk solo movie again
yet but they can do a thor ragnarok style crossover movie with a ton of hulk
in it and even though it sounds weird they can't put hulk
in the title of a movie right now the rules and right situation is kind of
strange but eventually marvel will work all that stuff out so i think that by
the time they're actually ready to make a new wolverine movie that
really won't be an issue anymore the next place that mark ruffalo's bruce
banner hulk is supposed to show up is on the she-hulk series
as part of her origin he didn't say how many episodes he'd be in but they're
actually working out that new contract for him right now
but let me know in the comments do you think that marvel will do hulk versus
wolverine in an upcoming avengers movie like avengers 6 or do you think that
they'll try and save that for its own movie or disney plus series
