Big news for Hulk fans today, as Edward Norton was announced as signing to play Bruce Banner in The Incredible Hulk movie. Best news of all, though, is that the plan is to re-imagine ol' Greenskin in order to undo the damage Ang Lee did in his version a few years ago. Hopefully this means no more Hulk-dogs or Absorbing Man-like fathers!
The fact that an actor of Norton's calibre associated himself with this effort makes me optimistic that it'll actually kick off the franchise for real this time. There's no reason you shouldn't be able to tell compelling stories about a scientist who turns into an out of control, ridiculously powerful beast whenever something makes him angry. Hey, even the old TV show wasn't awful, and all it had was Lou Ferrigno in green body paint, barely able to lift a car, for God's sake!
