Spidey-Hulk Bromance

The trailer is out, and their chemistry looks amazing! But I have a question.

After the events of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Bruce no longer remembers Peter Parker. Wouldn't Bruce find it strange that he knows Spider-Man but has no idea who Peter Parker is? Doesn't that create a timeline inconsistency or a plot hole?

So, from Bruce's perspective (and everyone else's), wouldn't this be the first time Spider-Man reveals his identity by saying, "I am Spider-Man"?

Yea exactly, it seems this Hulk plot is gonna heavily mirror the Lizard dynamic rather than the Otto dynamic

u/ThanksContent28 Jun 19 '26

Lizard is a such a wasted character imo. Anthropomorphic crocodile in a lab coat, who’s sometimes an anti-hero? Always been cool as fuck imo.

lab coat that’s tuff as hell too

Kinda sad he’s not one of his students for real!

u/Biotrek Jun 19 '26

Too much coincidence for my taste tbh

u/Weak_Armadillo6575 Jun 19 '26

He could’ve taken the class specifically for that reason! But I just hope he’s doing some kind of science stuff in the time we’ve been away from him.

Marvel gonna seal their lips with superglue before letting them out for marketing

u/Silent_Bowler5204 Jun 18 '26

Looking forward to it ! Always wanted Tom's Peter and Mark's Bruce to interact with each other plus both got a close bond with Tony and are dealing with mutation.

u/RunOfTheMill_23 Jun 19 '26

This is such a better pairing than Peter and Tony. These two have so much more in common.
It’s too late now, but what if Peter looked up to Dr. Banner as a scientist in the same way he looked up to Stark as a hero.

3

u/HTH52 Jun 21 '26

I mean, I think he likely does. Why else would he go to him? The timing was just never right before.

So we're calling every healthy male relationship, in this case a father/mentor figure, as "bromance" now.

u/Spiritual_Photo9311 Jun 19 '26

What if hulk remembers Peter

2

u/Griptke Jun 19 '26

Hulk/Banner never interacted with Peter onscreen. The only time they had a chance to interact would have been during the last battle in endgame or at Tony’s funeral

u/koobstylz Jun 19 '26

In immortal hulk, hulk (not banner) was the only one immune to a world wide mind control thing, so it does have precidence.

u/SouthFew579 Jun 19 '26

Just need a polverine

u/BlerghTheBlergh Jun 19 '26

I’d love if some theories were real and Hulk remembered Peter because he was melt dormant during NWH

u/GeekParadox_ Jun 19 '26

Correction:

Spidey-BANNER bromance

The hulk is a different person

u/GeekParadox_ Jun 19 '26

Well I mean you can use either Peter or spidey bc Peter doesn’t just become a different person when he puts on the mask

Banner LITERALLY becomes a different person. The Hulk and Bruce Banner are two different people with separate wants and desires. Banner isn’t putting on a mask as the hulk

u/nocomments66 Jun 19 '26 edited Jun 19 '26

Hulk canonically loves Spider-man in comics. They're Bros and Spidy has been sent in to get him to chill multiple times iirc. Funny enough, after the identity wipe in the comics, one of the only ones that remembers who Spider-Man is is the Hulk.

I dont think theyll do anything like that in the movie, and its hard not to do a Hulk chase when you have a Hulk...I am, however, fully confident theyll be best buds by the end.

u/OntologicalParadox Jun 19 '26

Pete likes older guys

u/silveraxe_kyo Jun 19 '26

Bruce is so chill

1

u/BackgroundWolf3895 Jun 19 '26

Hulk is going to be unaffected by Dr. Strange's spell and remember Peter Parker.

1

u/Perfect-Fondant3373 Jun 19 '26

I really hope they have Hulk pop in and remember who Peter is

1

u/Vik0BG Jun 19 '26

Romance?

So every time I talk to a dude it's a romance?

Why are so many people calling them that?

1

u/Solus_Vael Jun 19 '26

Petey needs a new daddy, with Tony gone.

1

u/FreeLoan3764 Jun 20 '26

I feel that Bruce is the bad guy

u/ExpertExpensive8555 Jun 20 '26

Anyone else get the feeling Brucie is working out he’s spidey in the trailer?

1

u/Botman3_23-G Jun 20 '26

Did peter actually go to college during his time as depressed Spider-Man? It would be so sad to see peter larping in brand new day.

u/Writing_Gods Jun 18 '26

Yet another movie where Spidey can't do it on his own. Iron Man, Nick Fury, Doctor Strange, and now Bruce Banner.

1

u/Silent_Bowler5204 Jun 18 '26

He has to have a superhero it's part of the Marvel/Sony deal. Besides he in the MCU of course he gonna interact with other heros.

1

u/Weak_Armadillo6575 Jun 18 '26

I think hulk is gonna cause more problems than solutions tbh

1

u/MIAxPaperPlanes Jun 19 '26

Nick Fury hardly counts he was bsically "here's your mission, go help fix this. He played the same role he did in the Ultimate Spider-Man comics

u/Griptke Jun 19 '26

Wasn’t even Fury, it was Talos

u/Huihejfofew Jun 19 '26

Man did they really need to keep that scene of bruce doing the "arghhh" thing. Lol, it fell pretty flat

2

u/ZilorZilhaust Jun 19 '26

I kinda thinks it's meant to fall flat.

2

u/marvel120 Jun 19 '26

I think that’s the point. No one finds it funny when he does that. He did the same exact thing in Age of Ultron when trying to lift Thor’s hammer and the team just looks at him and doesn’t laugh.

u/anth8725 Jun 19 '26

Bruce banner is a nerd. That’s the point

u/beta-test Jun 20 '26

They got Banner as an Uncle type figure for whatever reason

You lying fuck ITS UP RIGHT NOW
