Heartstopper star Kit Connor breaks silence on those Marvel rumors
Kit Connor has finally responded to those very interesting Marvel Cinematic Universe rumours. On 15 July, X users MyTimeToShineHello and The Cosmic Circus, both of which are known to be reliable tea-spillers, claimed that the rising star is being eyed to play Hulkling.
For those unfamiliar with the character, Hulkling is a Kree/Skrull hybrid who possesses shapeshifting abilities and super strength.
His partner is Wiccan, the son of Scarlet Witch who, like his mother, has abilities such as chaos magic, flight, reality warping, telekinesis, telepathy, teleportation, among others.
Since their first comic book appearance, the two characters have been widely hailed as “Marvel’s most prominent gay couple.” The rumour also hit a particular note with fans due to Connor’s Heartstopper co-star, Joe Locke, making his MCU debut in the highly anticipated series Agatha All Along, where he is rumoured to be playing Wiccan/Billy Kaplan.
