Deadpool 3 Rumor Teases Hulk Vs. Wolverine (But Don't Get Your Hopes Up)

Though they’re among the greatest Marvel heroes ever created, Hulk and Wolverine haven’t always been on the same side. After the latter made his Marvel Comics introduction in “The Incredible Hulk” #180, the two came to blows in the pages of the very next issue, “The Incredible Hulk” #181. Since their first meeting in 1974, they’ve duked it out numerous times, but never in live-action. “Deadpool and Wolverine” is the perfect place to bring this battle to life, but if it doesn’t happen, at least fans can watch it in animated form.

Back in 2009, “Hulk vs.” was released, featuring the Jade Giant (Fred Tatasciore) in two hard-hitting fights against his fellow do-gooders. In addition to giving the mighty Thor Odinson (Matthew Wolf) — one of Marvel’s many Thors — a run for his money, the Hulk puts up quite a fight against Wolverine (Steve Blum), too. Between Hulk’s immeasurable strength, Wolverine’s adamantium claws, and both of their short tempers, the fight isn’t long, but it’s certainly brutal. Nevertheless, when put up against a common enemy, the two join forces. Of course, in the film’s closing moments, they battle it out one more time.

Will Wolverine and Hulk fight in “Deadpool and Wolverine,” or will their many comic and animated clashes be reduced to a single line? We’ll find out when the film premieres on July 26.
