In June 2008, a little over a month after Iron Man kicked off the Marvel Cinematic Universe, The Incredible Hulk was released in theaters. The movie has become a bit of a black sheep in the superhero franchise not only due to its events barely being referenced, but because itâs the only MCU introduction movie not to get a sequel due to Universal Pictures still holding the film distribution rights to The Hulk. As such, Bruce Banner has since appeared only in ensemble pieces and movies led by other characters, but Disney+âs upcoming She-Hulk series looks like itâll finally allow for the MCU to explore the Hulk mythos more deeply.
