Mark Ruffalo thinks a solo movie for The Hulk' would be tough to make but "really interesting'.
The actor - who played the famous green superhero in 'The Avengers' - accepts his character doesn't like fighting crime, but it's his inner-conflict as alter ego Dr. Bruce Banner which could make a standalone film work.
He told Collider.com: "It could get very boring to watch the guy who's moping around who doesn't want to do the very thing that we're all dying to see him do.
"And so I think that's the tough part of cracking that nut. I think that's what's made it problematical in the past. But I do feel like we've gained some ground on this new version of him, which has - he's sort of turning to face himself, and I think the relationship between Banner and The Hulk as a conscious conflict, it could be really interesting.
"The one thing that I think The Hulk is terrified of is Banner, and that's never really been mined."
The star added he loved working with motion capture technology, and wants to be a "pioneer" in that area along with 'The Hobbit' and 'Lord of the Rings' actor Andy Serkis, who is seen as a forerunner.
He said: "It's so exciting. There's no limit to where we can go. I hope to be a pioneer in this space with Andy Serkis. I worked a lot with him on this.
"I'm very excited by what he's doing ... This is performance. It's completely driven by the actor and it has to be honoured as much as anything else, so that's kind of where we're heading with this technology and it's very exciting."

Serge Pizzorno has an "evil twin".
The Kasabian rocker admits new track 'Treat' is inspired by another side to his personality, and though it sometimes leads him into trouble, he "buzzes off" his mischievous persona.
He said: "The lyric about my evil twin is that moment when you have one beer and you make certain decisions.
"After two beers decisions can still be made but after five or six beers you are a completely different person. But there is something amazing about the other person, your evil twin.
"Although he, or she, will get you into more trouble than you are ever likely to get into, you do buzz off that other person a bit."
The group headline Glastonbury this weekend - 10 years after they opened the event on the Other Stage - and claim they always knew they would top the bill.
Serge said: "We knew we'd headline it one year and now we're closing the festival. We've come full circle and silenced our critics who saw us as a lad band when we are anything but.
"We keep coming out with stuff that f**ks with people's heads. When you are confronted with confusion, people hit out.
"What we are doing is new. There hasn't been anyone like us."

Eric Clapton is quitting touring.
The 69-year-old guitarist finds travelling "unbearable" these days and he worries about becoming "embarrassing", but he won't give up music completely.
He said: ""The road has become unbearable.
"It's unapproachable, because it takes so long to get anywhere - and it's hostile. Everywhere. Getting in and out of airports, getting on planes, travelling in cars....
"There are tons of things I'd like to do - but I'm looking at retirement, too. I'm 70 next year.
"I think what I'll allow myself to do, within reason, is carry on recording in the studio... I don't want to go off the boil to the point where I'm embarrassing myself."
And the former Cream musician - who is nicknamed Slowhand - admits he is anticipating he may one day have to give up music altogether.
Asked if he can imagine a time when he will no longer play guitar, he told the new issue of Uncut magazine: "Maybe. Physically, it might be that I can't, if it hurts too much. I have odd ailments."
The 'Wonderful Tonight' star also claimed he thinks driving will eventually be illegal.
He said: "I'm thinking that maybe in 10, 15 years, driving will have become illegal - because they'll have introduced another form of transport, with robot cars and things. You won't be allowed to drive."

Olivia Palermo has got married.
The 28-year-old beauty reportedly secretly tied the knot with German model Johannes Huebl - who she has been in a relationship with since 2008 - at Manhattan's City Hall last Saturday (21.06.14), with just three guests in tow.
The couple had reportedly planned to tie the knot in St. Barts - where Johannes proposed last December - later this year but brought the date forward as the model had been experiencing issues with his visa which may have meant he had to leave the US sooner.
A source told the New York Post newspaper: "They were planning a big wedding in the fall, but Johannes left Wilhelmina Models last year, and he currently isn't with an agency, and was told he would have to leave the US in September.
"Olivia's friends were surprised when they got married at City Hall on Saturday, with the only guests being his friend Ulli Saeuberlich and her parents, who weren't happy with the rush, but decided to be there at the last minute."
However, a spokesperson for the former 'City' star insisted they are "not married yet", though she did admit they were planning a small ceremony this month ahead of a bigger celebration later.
Barbara Saint-Aime insisted: "They had always planned to have a small civil wedding in June. The whole visa thing is not relevant. They have been together for six-and-a-half years, they got engaged this past January. They travel so much during the summer, they really don't have much time to plan things. They are not married yet. They are doing a much smaller civil ceremony in the States this month and they are planning to do something much larger later on."
Olivia previously hinted she planned to marry outside of the US.
She said recently: "Johannes' friends and family are all over Europe and my parents are happy to travel, so it will probably be somewhere in the middle. Then you will always have a special place in your heart for the destination where you got married."

Shia LaBeouf has been arrested for disorderly conduct and criminal trespass.
The troubled actor was handcuffed and escorted out of a Broadway performance of 'Cabaret' yesterday (26.06.14) after he reportedly began yelling erratically and slapping people's backsides.
A NYPD spokesperson told Us Weekly: "[Shia] has been charged with disorderly conduct. He was also charged with criminal trespass. While at Studio 54 he was upsetting patrons, being loud and yelling. He'll be jailed. There will be a court appearance for this matter."
An eye-witness added to the publication: "Shia seemed out of sorts. He was interacting with strangers during the show and slapping peoples' backsides. He was trying to avoid the police and fell. Then he was cursing at the police while being taken into custody."
The 28-year-old actor - who has sparked fears for his mental health in recent months - reportedly had tears in his eyes as he was led out of the New York City musical, which stars Michelle Williams and Alan Cumming, during the intermission.
Another source revealed that the 'Transformers' star was "harassing audience members, harassing actors on the stage, and chain smoking inside the theater."
The bizarre incident comes after Shia declared he intended to retire from acting and "all public life" following "attacks against his artistic integrity".
The star has had a difficult few months, culminating in him storming out of a 'Nymphomaniac' press conference in Berlin before arriving on the red carpet for the film's German premiere wearing a paper bag on his head that read, "I am not famous anymore."
He was also forced to apologise for alleged plagiarism and starred in his own silent art installation in Los Angeles.
Meanwhile, stars including 'Girls' creator Lena Dunham have been reacting to the news on Twitter.
She joked: "I feel you Shia: In 1993 I was carried out of Les Mis screaming because I couldn't handle the intimations of death.
"You know you're a f**kin' G when you're arrested during Cabaret. (sic)"

Cheryl Cole's new boyfriend is planning a birthday party for her.
The 'Crazy Stupid Love' hitmaker will turn 31 next Monday (30.06.14) and her French lover Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini is eager to help her celebrate in style by throwing a lavish bash for her over the weekend.
The 33-year-old restaurant owner is hoping to reserve new celebrity hotspot Chiltern Firehouse in west London for the exclusive party, which will be catered by his own eatery, Cosy Box.
Guests are expected to include 'X Factor' boss Simon Cowell and Cheryl's closest friends, her former Girls Aloud bandmates Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Cheryl knows there's going to be a party, but doesn't know all the details yet.
"But she's excited and has already invited her friends along, including Simon Cowell and former Girls Aloud bandmates Kimberley Walsh and Nicola Roberts."
Cheryl can't wait to celebrate her 31st birthday with her new man, but it seems the star is hoping for a simpler affair than her raucous getaway to Las Vegas for her 30th birthday last year.
The insider added: "The best thing about this birthday for Cheryl is that she'll have Jean-Bernard on her arm for the whole weekend.
"She's excited to show him off to her nearest and dearest. However, she doesn't want it to be as boozy as her 30th was last year."

Ellie Goulding finds it hard to maintain a relationship because of her job.
The 27-year-old singer admits it's a constant battle to keep the romance alive in her relationship with McFly musician Dougie Poynter, 26, as she's required to jet around the world for her pop career.
She explained: "I've definitely met someone. You get to know someone who makes you very happy and then you go away on tour, right when it was just getting somewhere awesome. It's not fun, but we can make it work. Love is beyond everything, beyond the universe."
The 'Beating Heart' songstress - who recently earned a BRIT Award for Best Female Solo Artist - also confessed she only discovered her passion for music after taking up guitar playing to impress a love interest.
She told Self magazine: "I started playing guitar to impress a guy, but all of a sudden I was more engrossed in the guitar than the guy and playing it became my everything. It was a big deal, because I started singing my own songs."
Ellie's road to pop stardom wasn't without its difficulties, however, as the singer was crippled by anxiety while recording her debut album 'Lights'.
She recalled: "I'd have these faux heart attacks that felt real. There was so much adrenalin."

Charlotte Crosby blames 'Geordie Shore' for her weight gain.
The 23-year-old star claims the MTV reality show is the reason for her change in figure, admitting she's gained three stone and gone up two dress sizes while filming the upcoming eighth series.
She explained: "It's hard on the show because we film for six weeks at a time and it involves constant drinking and eating pizzas and kebabs. It's nearly impossible not to put on weight."
The 'Celebrity Big Brother' winner was at "rock bottom" over her figure after taking part in the Channel 5 reality show and spent the next two months working out and eating healthily, but she's since struggled to keep the weight off.
Charlotte confessed: "I know I've been naughty with my diet, even when I'm not filming. I just love junk food. I can't drive past a McDonald's without going in for a burger and fries.
"I'd love to tone up and get back to a size 10, but it's not easy. If losing weight was easy, everyone would be able to do it."
Meanwhile, Charlotte has admitted her relationship with boyfriend Mitch Jenkins is better than ever.
She told Closer magazine: "Thing are great with Mitch. I would love to be married by the time I'm 30, but that's a fair few years off."

Jonathan Ross was shocked at how polite David and Victoria Beckham's children are.
'The Jonathan Ross Show' host has interviewed the former soccer star on numerous occasions but admits he was surprised by how well-mannered his children - Brooklyn, 15, Romeo, 12, Cruz, nine, and two-year-old Harper - were when he met them and their fashion designer mother at an event.
Quizzed whether he felt sorry for them having to cope with their parents' fame, he said: "No, I don't, because Victoria and David are such cool people and such good parents. I met them out years ago with their kids and you couldn't have met a more polite, sweet-natured bunch of children."
The 53-year-old TV star also explained that while he can understand why people would think the kids are spoilt, he doesn't think there's any reason why they'd be impolite.
He told heat magazine: "They were so well-mannered and, oddly, I don't think people would expect that, but they've raised those kids great."
One young star Jonathan isn't impressed by, however, is Justin Bieber, who was recently forced to apologise after videos emerged of him telling racist jokes as a teenager.
Jonathan said: "I like Justin - he's a nice guy and he's clearly a very talented young man. But at the moment someone needs to tell him to f***ing calm down, you know, because he's acting like a goon."
