As revealed a few days ago, the Oscar winner wanted to be part of the MCU. After the problems that the studio had with Edward Norton and before hiring Mark Ruffalo, the actor offered to take over the role, however this never happened, but this does not mean that we cannot imagine what he would look like as the Hill.
Marvel has always been committed to the Hulk, this character is highly loved by the fans and, in 2008, when his first movie was released, fans went crazy. Try have been waiting for another movie released of the big green hero, however the character is does not only belong to them, Universal Pictures has the distribution rights, therefore, the companies would have to agree on some terms before initiating another movie.
At the moment Ruffallo is still with the role, but in the future, She-Hulk will arrive, in the series by the same name for the Disney + television series, wherein Bruce Banner’s cousin will also be exposed to gamma rays after a blood transfusion from her relative.
Although, those stories still need to be told, we can entertain ourselves with some snippets of what might have been, and what better way than to see what Matthew McConaughey would look like as the Hulk. In an alternate universe where Marvel has granted him the role, A pexform who is a fan of the character, revealed this scenario for us with some incredible art work.
As a bonus fact, Marvel had proposed to the actor to play Ego the Living Planet in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2’, something that he did not accept, so role ended up being given to Kurt Russell’s. We guess it’s his way or the highway.
