A lot of big players and superheroes are becoming household names, thanks to the hugely popular Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Superheroes like Iron Man, Captain America, Thor and even Ant-Man have been getting opportunity to tell their stories on the big screen away from the collaborative 'Avengers' releases.

But it seems like this courtesy will not be extended to Mark Ruffalo's adaptation of The Hulk.

According to Contactmusic, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige shared that he did not know if The Hulk would ever get a solo movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

He said, "I think that back and forth continues, and I don't know if it will ever happen."

"But I will tell you, it makes me very, very happy going from a world, 10 years ago, when people were questioning the viability of Hulk in a standalone film, to getting asked every other interview, 'When will there be another standalone Hulk?'" he added.

Earlier, at Disney's D23 Expo, Mark Ruffalo, who portrays 'The Hulk' in the Marvel Cinematic Universe went on to say that a solo Hulk movie will "never" happen.

"I just want to make one thing perfectly clear today that a standalone Hulk movie will never happen. Because Universal has the rights to the standalone Hulk movie and for some reason they don't know how to play well with Marvel, and they don't want to make money," Ruffalo noted.

As of now, the studio giant has not announced their plans beyond 'Avengers 4', save for the 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' sequel and 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3'.
