Ed Norton's favorite gamma-powered man-monster may be set to take on an important role in 2011's The Avengers movie, but don't expect to see a Hulk 2 anytime soon. That's according to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige, who's continuing the ongoing tease that it'll be the Hulk that causes the formation of Marvel's premiere superhero team in The Avengers. But he admits that no sequel to this summer's underwhelming Hulk movie - out today on DVD - is currently being planned. With two failed movies in the last five years, we're wondering whether Marvel will give up trying to make us love the Hulk? More »

The Hulk's trademark shambling jumps weren't just motion-captured on the fly — every lurch was planned out carefully in advance, judging from this newly released behind-the-scenes video from the DVD, which comes out Oct. 21. The movie's VFX masters taped Edward Norton rolling about on the floor of an office to figure out the Hulk's awesome gait. It's quite funny, and a bit of a lightsaber-fight-in-the-garage moment, but that's dedication. Other DVD goodies, out now, include a feature on casting Norton in Hulk, plus one deleted scene and some footage of Tim Roth on the run. More »

In a move that surprises no comic fan, it's beginning to look a lot like the villain in Marvel Studios' The Avengers movie will be the computer-generated, green-skinned star of The Incredible Hulk. As screenwriters and directors from this summer's two Marvel movies hint at a gamma-powered bad guy for 2011's team-up blockbuster, we ask: Couldn't they do something a little less obvious? More »

Is the rest of the world more ready for depressing ecological dystopias that fail to scare or thrill than the US? That would appear to be the message from this weekend's international movie box office results, where - unlike in the United States - M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening outgrossed rival The Incredible Hulk. But, just like Public Enemy once said, don't believe the hype. There's more to this clash of titans than meets the eye. More »

The Incredible Hulk easily crushed the competition at the box office over the weekend, but you'll have to wait another week to see if it's a massive hit. The new Hulk movie took in $55.8 million, less than the $71 million (adjusted for inflation) that Ang Lee's Hulk took in in its opening weekend. The Lee Hulk left a bad taste in people's mouths, so a smaller opening is understandable — Batman Begins took in only $48 million in its opening weekend, coming on the heels of the ultra-campy Batman And Robin. The crucial question is what happens next. More »

Bruce Banner, the Incredible Hulk's alter-ego, suffers from terrible post-traumatic stress disorder in the new Hulk movie. There are a few scenes of Banner freaking out in the bathtub as he remembers the violence of the military's latest attempt to capture him. You can't even get close to Bruce Banner (Edward Norton), because he's so wound up with his trauma. Flashes of guns and fists. But in the end, the movie suggests, Bruce's PTSD is a by-product of his struggle to hold onto his humanity, to avoid becoming the ultimate killing machine. Spoilers ahead. More »

This is hardly a banner week for comic stores, and no, that’s not a pun to tie in with the upcoming Incredible Hulk movie. While there may be lots of new books coming out, it’s fairly light on ones that’ll grab your attention unless you’re looking to read up on this summer's big movie heroes before hitting the theaters. If that's your plan, though, then you can expect a Hulk-themed look at family and gender issues, the best of The Dark Knight's bad guys, and a hero with a red right hand, waiting for you under the jump.

A new Incredible Hulk trailer slowly plays the Hulk goodbye song from the 1970s series, "The Lonely Man," while voice-overing Bruce Banner's sad story. This special trailer is one of the first times we get to see much, if not any, insight into the life of this Banner. Thanks to Edward Norton's refusal to do any press, we'd almost forgotten he was in the movie. More »

Universal has released new pictures of The Incredible Hulk, and unfortunately the more stills they release the more I'm inclined to see similarities between Hulk and a cartoon... or the produce aisle. Take a good close look: his skin is so waxy and shiny it looks like a cucumber. There is so much going on CGI-wise with the green giant that it looks over done. The Hulk looks like he is moments away from popping his eyes out in surprise, Mask style. Maybe James Cameron is on to something when he says 2-D CGI characters look weird surrounded by real people. Cameron's motion-capture may all look a bit touched but at least it doesn't stick out like giant Veggie Tales characters come to life and fighting on the streets of New York city.

You can see more of the smash-em-up Hulk, beating cars together and emerging from asphalt, in this new international trailer for The Incredible Hulk. But you also glimpse the Hulk's softer side, like the image of Betty and the Hulk watching the lightning together, like a lazy, rainy morning. Will the Hulk mellow out more in the movie, like he sometimes does in the comics? Or will the film mostly be scenes of him throwing heavy objects around? [Slashfilm] More »
