Marvel Phase 4: 10 Latest Rumours You Need To Know
2. Plans Are Finally In Place For Hercules
There have been a lot of iterations of Hercules on the big screen over the years, but the one who calls the Marvel Universe home has yet to be seen in the MCU. Like Starfox, he was initially rumoured to have a role in Eternals, but that seemingly didn't pan out, despite claims he was actually going to be portrayed as being bisexual (similar to his comic book counterpart in recent years).
Now, Cinema Spot claims that Hercules is being lined up for a future movie or TV show, and...well, that's as specific as it gets. Looking through Phase 4, it's not easy to single out any one project Hercules could be a good fit for, but Thor: Love and Thunder is probably the best possible choice right now.
However, that movie is already looking pretty busy, so perhaps it's best for him to be saved until much further down the line. Either way, it would be good to see Marvel Studios put their spin on the character, especially if it brings some much-needed diversity to the currently LGBTQ+ shared world.
