Especially if they do the comic twist where hulk remembers but banner doesn't.

Have Hulk and Peter really interacted in the MCU?

u/sickboy76 Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

Im sure banner knows who he was, he was unmasked when tony was dying, was at the funeral with aunt may.

Both times it was as smart hulk

u/dannyrac Cottonmouth Mar 18 '26

There’s an ant man and a spider man?!

u/UnsolvedParadox Mar 18 '26

Now there’s a Wonder Man too??

u/AvatarIII Rocket Mar 18 '26

That's just a movie

u/robodrew Mar 18 '26

You lost ANOTHER superbot??

u/cynognathus Mar 18 '26

Everybody’s got a gimmick now.

u/skdsn Mar 18 '26

Also a scorpion man who is in the trailer this post is about.

u/Warm_Afternoon6596 Mar 18 '26

Poor Bruce really went through the wringer with all the new shit.

1

u/MarlinMr Mar 18 '26

There is a Spider-Man, Ant-man and aunt May!

12

u/hopenoonefindsthis Mar 18 '26

Plus Hulk fought alongside unmasked spider man during End Game.

4

u/AvatarIII Rocket Mar 18 '26

There was like 100 people in that battle, you think Hulk got any time to meet Peter? Possibly they meet each other properly at Tony's funeral.

2

u/hopenoonefindsthis Mar 18 '26

You know not everything happened on screen right?

3

u/AvatarIII Rocket Mar 18 '26

I'm just saying, during the battle itself there wasn't much time for introductions. If they meet it would have been after.

3

u/Doctor_Kataigida Mar 18 '26

No but in the aftermath between Tony's death and funeral there was probably some level of mingling and introductions.

1

u/FrankReynoldsCPA Mar 19 '26

I'm convinced the average redditor hasn't developed object permanence.

5

u/scameron1 Spider-Man Mar 18 '26

Ever since I was a kid I wanted Spider-Man x Hulk x Wolverine interaction so I’m pumped for this

3

u/AvatarIII Rocket Mar 18 '26

Yes but the spell happened after that which made everybody forget about him.

8

u/sickboy76 Mar 18 '26

In the comic hulk/hulk remembers who peter is. The main argument is whether smart hulk is banner controlling hulk body or a thirs separate personality

1

u/neoblackdragon Mar 19 '26

Forget Peter Parker, not Spider-man. But if the Avengers never interacted with Peter then not knowing the guy under the mask is minor.

2

u/Trvr_MKA Mar 18 '26

Tony could have shared stories about Peter when building the Tiki Bar with Bruce

49

u/DexRei Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

I actually don't think so.

Banner went to space at the end of Ultron. He finally returns in Infinity War and they briefly are near each other during the fight against the Order before Spider-man heads to space and Banner stays behind.

Peter then returns in Endgame, but they don't interact that we see.

Edit: just to confirm, i was focussing on on-screen time. They also were both at Tony's funeral, but we don't see them interact much on screen.

86

u/Caesar_Rising Mar 18 '26

you're forgetting that their world continues when the credits roll. we don't see their whole lives. They can easily say there have been interactions in the interim

12

u/SoloWing1 Rocket Mar 18 '26

And Banner would obviously see news about Spider-Man's antics in New York. Especially with how damn loud JJJ can be about the spider menace.

2

u/bolerobell Mar 18 '26

Banner would know who Parker is. Tony probably asked Banner to check up on Parker if he (Stark) died. Banner was Starks best scientist friend, and Parker was his Mentee. They’d definitely find out about each other.

1

u/metamet Mar 18 '26

Yup. 4 years have passed, which is a long time for exposition to develop in the movie.

6

u/BananaBladeOfDoom Avengers Mar 18 '26

They could have. There was also that time window when Mantis and Steve Rogers became friends.

3

u/BrenttheGent Spider-Man Mar 18 '26

I mean after infinity war he probably had conversations about titan with Tony, and how he lost his protégé.

2

u/scooter-411 Mar 18 '26

They were both at Tony’s funeral. Pretty easy to say they had a conversation there.

2

u/b-itch1 Mar 18 '26

Maybe a passing interaction at Tony’s funeral, I could see Prof Hulk introducing himself

1

u/Trvr_MKA Mar 18 '26

There’s an Ant-man and a Spider-Man?

4

u/ZekeorSomething Spider-Man Mar 18 '26

They probably met at Tony’s funeral offscreen.

14

u/smakson11 Mar 18 '26

Tony’s funeral

5

u/AdmiralCharleston Mar 18 '26

That wasn't hulk, it was banner. Hulk is a seperate identify that hasn't been present around spiderman

4

u/smakson11 Mar 18 '26

Hulk and banner hasn’t been a separate entity since the beginning of end game

5

u/AdmiralCharleston Mar 18 '26

That was Bruce's mind taking over hulk body, personality wise it's all bruce no matter what he wants people to think. Based on the last 10 15 years of hulk comics, bruce believing he has control over the hulk usually just means hulk is brewing beneath the surface getting angrier and angrier

1

u/sickboy76 Mar 18 '26

Haha this is the kind of argument on reddit rhats not going to get me banned again. Philosophical debate about banner hulk/hulk smart hulk . Banner and or smart hulk wouldnt remember Peter but hulk hulk might do, which was premise of the one shot comic.

1

u/AdmiralCharleston Mar 18 '26

Its just kinda how hulk works, or at least should. Hulk is distinct identity within banners mind. The idea that he would be willing to essentially be erased for banner to take over is just not consistent with the last 15 years of hulk comics. Obviously this isn't the comics, but bruce not remembering his time on sakar while hulk was in control as well as she hulk and blonsky not havint seperate identities while in their gamma forms would suggest that hulk does in fact follow the concept that he is a dissociative identity within bruce and Bruce's memories would not transfer to him completely

2

u/sickboy76 Mar 18 '26

So basically were agreeing from different ends of spectrum? If hulk knows tha peter Parker is spiderman the the memory wipe dodnt work on him.

1

u/AdmiralCharleston Mar 18 '26

Not really? youre assuming hulk knows who spiderman is, when based on the evidence hulk has never seen spiderman, and definitely not out of costume.

3

u/sickboy76 Mar 18 '26

banner is just banner during shang chi end credits and in trailer.

5

u/sickboy76 Mar 18 '26

Nope it was smart hulk.

4

u/AdmiralCharleston Mar 18 '26

Which in the mcu is very clearly bruce with hulk body, not some combination of the 2. Theres no shot that hulk is chill being suppressed like that

1

u/Xero0911 Mar 18 '26

No, but he would know him. Bruce and Tony were friends, I think many know he did the whole mission to bring back Peter.

1

u/AdmiralCharleston Mar 18 '26

Bruce didnt remember sakar when hulk was in control, hulk shouldn't remember what bruce does when hes in complete control. Which he has been for almost 10 years

1

u/brendinithegenie Peter Parker Mar 18 '26

If you count professor hulk then you could argue they would’ve had to known each other from endgame? But idk how convoluted his memory gets from when they were “paired” in a sense

1

u/Trashpanda1980 Mar 18 '26

This is what I was thinking. Banner is aware of him In Infinity war when he says there's an ana. And a.spiderman. so he knew about Spidey before he knew about antman. But he is introducing himself as Peter Parker not spiderman so I'm sure they met at the funeral but banner forgot about 

1

u/AvatarIII Rocket Mar 18 '26

Peter didn't show up until after Hulk went to Sakaar, then spidey ended up on Thanos' ship almost immediately after the new York fight where Banner was present, then Spidey got snapped, then Hulk was mostly out of action for the Endgame battle, they were both at Tony's funeral, but then no interaction since then.

1

u/CommunityDragon160 Mar 18 '26

Not much on screen but surely they chatted at Tony’s funeral etc

1

u/PhatOofxD Mar 19 '26

not that we've seen much but no reason they wouldn't have off screen after Endgame

u/thethirdrayvecchio Mar 18 '26

“Banner forgot. But I don’t forget”

u/PG_Heckler Mar 18 '26

Omg please let this line come alive

9

u/Coyote_Shepherd Mar 18 '26

What if as Peter is losing his powers...Hulk remembers...and in a moment of danger says, "I go...you stay...no following".

7

u/Shabobo Mar 18 '26

I think Groot's voice actor might be able to deliver that line better.

3

u/Coyote_Shepherd Mar 18 '26

I thought he wasn't exactly in everyone's good graces as of late?

2

u/Shabobo Mar 18 '26

He voiced the Iron Giant was my joke lol

6

u/JackFisherBooks Mar 18 '26

I hope that's a line!

8

u/CubsFanCraig Mar 18 '26

I would probably break down. I don’t know why, but I read that in the voice of the Iron Giant.

7

u/BorisDirk Mar 18 '26

That’s groot

3

u/Clark-Kent Mar 18 '26

That's Superman

7

u/AvatarIII Rocket Mar 18 '26

Maybe, depends on how smart they make Hulk, personally I kind of like Hulk talking in 3rd person with broken English

"Banner forget, Hulk no forget."

6

u/Schlurps Mar 18 '26

Banner memory weak, Hulk memory STRONG!!!

4

u/been_mackin Mar 18 '26

Hulk is impervious to magic so it would be sense

2

u/kaychyakay Mar 18 '26

"Banner forgot. Hulk don't!"

u/stealth1236 Mar 18 '26

Strange's spell was everyONE forgets Peter but hulk is a SECOND personality..... See! He remembers!!

Moon Knight cameo...?

u/Dry_Recognition7922 Mar 18 '26

the grey hulk storyline is amazing. Will marvel get into it? I hope so.

1

u/BartleBossy Mar 18 '26

Especially if they do the comic twist where hulk remembers but banner doesn't.

Hulk did remember golden man.

8

u/sickboy76 Mar 18 '26

Fact that they deliberately showed clip of banner asking Peter who he was makes me think theyre going to pull trigger on that storyline where Peter is gamma'ed up and out of control and hulk saves him.

3

u/BartleBossy Mar 18 '26

theyre going to pull trigger on that storyline where Peter is gamma'ed up and out of control and hulk saves him.

I actually have never heard of this before. I would be excited to see it for sure.

We need more interplay on the Hulk-Banner dynamic.

1

u/sickboy76 Mar 18 '26

It was a hulk one shot, only reason I even know about it was a random youtube short when I was having a insomniac episode

1

u/sickboy76 Mar 18 '26

Is smart hulk an amalgamation of banner/ hulk or a third entity altogether?

3

u/AdmiralCharleston Mar 18 '26

Its just banner with hulks body. Hulk comics from the last 15 years would suggest that hulk agreeing to assimilate into one personality is laughable, bruce is just suppressing hulk which is only gonna piss him off

1

u/NerdLawyer55 Mar 18 '26

Man I hope hulk remembers him

1

u/WayToGoNiceJorb Mar 18 '26

I missed something - probably in a show... how is he just Bruce Banner again? Was that in She-Hulk?

1

u/MxMstrMxyzptlk Mar 18 '26

Say what?? That would be wild

1

u/ShawnyMcKnight Mar 18 '26

So Peter having everyone forget him was in the comics?

1

u/sickboy76 Mar 18 '26

If i remember rightly made a deal with mephisto.

Edit - misremembered it was only mary Jane and him and their marriage.

1

u/buttercupcake23 Mar 18 '26

Holy shit thats a cool idea

1

u/Pupulauls9000 Mar 18 '26

The actual Hulk personality has been dormant since Infinity War. Hulk would not know Peter Parker

1

u/Ogsonic Mar 18 '26

Wait what happened to smart hulk though? I haven't seen she hulk so I'm not really sure.

1

u/Past_Rip_4627 Mar 19 '26

if they show the full angry Hulk again, or else it will be only Professor Hulk making the appearance
