FIND OUT WHO SKAAR THE SON OF HULK IS, WHO WE MEET AT THE END OF SEASON 1 OF SHE-HULK ON DISNEY PLUS!
She-Hulk is now available through Disney Plus! Continue reading to find out who Skaar, the Hulk’s son, is!
While She-Hulk was the origin story for Jennifer Walters, the Disney+ series was also the first time the MCU had a Hulk in a lead role since 2008’s The Incredible Hulk.
Because Mark Ruffalo replaced Edward Norton as Bruce Banner and Universal owns the character’s distribution rights, the MCU largely avoided the 2008 film and a subsequent solo film. That is, until now.
Not only is Disney set to reclaim the character’s rights as early as next year, but She-Hulk revisits several plot points from the 2008 film while also laying the groundwork for future Hulk stories.
However, the appearance of one character in She-season Hulk’s finale suggests that the Hulk’s cinematic future may be closer than expected.
Hulk introduces us to his son Skaar at the end of the first season! But who exactly is Skaar?
WHO IS SKAAR THE HULK’S SON?
Skaar is only mentioned briefly in She-Hulk, so not much is known about him in the MCU. It is unknown who Skaar’s other relative is and how long Bruce has known him in the She-Hulk finale.
The Sakaaran ship that crashed Jen, who became She-Hulk, was sent by Skaar, as the young Hulkling discovered where his father was, according to the first episode of She-Hulk.
This caused the Hulk to return to Sakaar before returning to Earth with his son. Skaar’s introduction isn’t limited to the MCU, as the character is based on a comic book.
Skaar’s comic book story will almost certainly be included in his film, with a seemingly insignificant line hinting that it will happen, most likely based on the Planet Hulk story that introduced Skaar to Marvel Comics.
WHAT ARE SKAAR’S ABILITIES?
Skaar’s abilities are similar to those of the Hulk in comic books, with the character inheriting strength, durability, stamina, as well as senses from his father, who is the Hulk.
Skaar’s powers, like the Hulk’s, grow stronger with anger. Skaar, unlike Bruce, inherited some powers from his mother.
These abilities include the ability to manipulate lava and stone via the Ancient Power. You can find out who Skaar’s mother is right here.
WHEN DID THE HULK GET HIS SON?
The most likely time for the Hulk to have a son in the MCU is between Age of Ultron and Ragnarok.
Banner remained the Hulk for over two years on the planet Sakaar until Thor reunited with him as the Grandmaster’s champion. Everything you need to know about the release of She-Hulk Season 2 is right here.
Ragnarok only depicts the Hulk in his final days on Earth. It’s not a stretch to believe that Hulk had a son with someone on Sakaar within the previous two years.
A potential Planet Hulk adaptation closer to comic book history indicates that Marvel Studios is indeed planning to show exactly what Bruce did in space, as well as Skaar’s origins, for the MCU’s future.
It remains to be seen whether Skaar will appear in the films or series that follow She-Hulk!
