The verb 'hope' with future simple

Hello,
I am not sure sure , but I think that 'going to' shoudn't be used after the verb 'hope' and that future simple should be used instead. Am I right?
Eg.,

I hope he is going to come.
I hope he is going to visit me here.
I hope everything will go well.

Thanks
