Rumors have been swirling around the possibility of a reboot of the popular Marvel superhero movie, The Incredible Hulk. The movie, which was released in 2008, starred Edward Norton as Bruce Banner and Liv Tyler as Betty Ross.
The rumors began when Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige was asked about the possibility of a reboot during a recent interview. Feige did not confirm or deny the rumors, but he did say that the studio was “always looking for ways to bring new and exciting stories to the big screen.”
The original movie was a box office success, grossing over $263 million worldwide. It was also well-received by critics, with many praising Norton’s performance as Banner.
If the rumors are true, it is unclear who would take on the role of Banner. Norton has not been involved in any Marvel projects since the original movie, and it is unlikely that he would return for a reboot.
It is also unclear what direction the reboot would take. The original movie focused on Banner’s struggle to control the Hulk’s rage, while the more recent Avengers movies have focused on the team’s battles against various villains.
Whatever direction the reboot takes, fans of the original movie will be excited to see the Hulk back on the big screen. Until then, all we can do is wait and see if the rumors are true.
Rumors regarding a reboot of the incredible Hulk franchise have been swirling around lately, and it’s definitely something Marvel fans are excited about. The original Hulk film, released in 2003, starred Academy Award Winner Eric Bana as Bruce Banner and was a moderate box office success, and the 2008 sequel, The Incredible Hulk, starred Edward Norton and was both a financial and critical success.
Reports suggest that Marvel Studios is looking to cast a new actor for the iconic role of the Hulk. Although no casting decisions have been revealed at this point, an inside source has revealed that Marvel studio is in talks with franchise star Mark Ruffalo. Ruffalo impressed fans and critics in his portrayal as Bruce Banner/Hulk in 2012’s The Avengers and its sequel, Avengers: Age of Ultron.
The Marvel universe has changed drastically since Ruffalo debuted as the Hulk in the Avengers, and it will be interesting to see how things unfold in the upcoming film. It will be exciting to see how the story is developed and the new adventures that the Hulk and Bruce Banner will embark upon.
At this point, all the details surrounding the project are still up in the air, and the fans can only wait and see what Marvel Studios has in store. Fans have been eagerly waiting to see the giant green rage monster back on our screens for a long time, and have been hoping for some form of a reboot. If rumors are correct, it looks like that wish is soon to be granted.
