The Incredible Hulk.

Norton all set to play the new Hulk.

I like Bana, but I love Norton.


Two-time Academy Award® nominee Edward Norton has signed on to play Bruce Banner, who transforms into Marvel's renowned, larger-than-life Super Hero, The Hulk in Marvel Studios' action-packed, new big screen adaptation of The Incredible Hulk. The film, which is being directed by Louis Leterrier and distributed by Universal Pictures, is scheduled to smash into theaters on June 13, 2008.

:lol: Nice title. This will be kinda weird, I love Ed Norton as an actor, just that I don't see him as Burce Banner transforming into The Hulk.

I didn't like the Hulk movie, it was too...not well done.

I liked Connely too, I don't think she'll be back though. Bana had said he'd like to do Banner again, just that the studio's never mentioned a sequel to him.

Norton on his own will make me buy a ticket, I like all his movies. Great actor.

First off, we never made an incinuation of sucking a dick...next time you try throwing out gay commentary, try it on someone else. Secondly, yes he was in Italian Job, but to respect him as an actor, you should try seeing his other movies...then I'm willing to bet you will be "suckin his dick so hard." :roll:

There is a decent way to ask something, then there's a not so decent way.

Coming from someone who's such a big Kobe Bryant cocksucker it looks like your mouth should've been fit with a vagina instead of lips, I find your last statement quite amusing to say the least.

In any case, to respond as best as I can to your inane question...

Yes, Edward Norton is the negative lead in "The Italian Job" but if that Kobe cocksucking fixated brain of yours knew shit about movies, you'd also know that Edward Norton did that movie with a lot of disdain. It's a major reason why he isn't part of "The Brazillian Job", the follow up to the aforementioned movie.

Norton has done great roles (and received nominations aswell) in movies like Fight Club, American History X, Primal Fear, Red Dragon, 25th Hour and most recently his brilliant performance in The Illusionist.

What exactly has Bana done that you like him so much? Munich? Okay. Troy? Brad Pitt's movie. Hulk? Bombed horribly. Black Hawk Down? Really? Josh Hartnett comes to mind.

Piss off with your stupid remarks without knowing jackshit about the subject at hand. Go back to living under a rock.


After a few years of wrangling, studio execs pushed the issue of the contract and the possibility of a lawsuit if Norton did not commit to a project within the year. The actor finally took the role of the villain in "The Italian Job," a film he would normally not bother to get involved with.

Ignorance is bliss. Apparently, going by this one movie the rest of us are wrong and cock suckers. Nice way to reflect your own problems on us.

Didn't like the first movie much, Norton will be a nice change. Can't really see him as the Hulk though but I have no doubt he will be able to pull it off somehow.

Sorry for posting such a dumb remark. Iv been kinda irritated and mad at the way my friends are taking the Virginia Tech massacre, they dont care at all, and its kinda a big thing to me. Back on topic though.

So i guess my emotions kinda ran off into the post i made. Its true though i didnt really like him in the Italian Job but i have seen Red Dragon, and Death To Smoochy which i liked him in. I haven't seen American History X, but i might rent it or something to change my "ignorant mind." But when i said he wasnt that good i stated that it was only my opinion.

Damn, this is excellent news! Edward Norton is one of my fave actors, and seeing him be the Hulk is gonna be freaking awesome. Like Jackal said, I'd pay for a ticket just because of Norton.

Don't forget Primal Fear, Norton was outstanding in that film.

And no, I didn't like the first Hulk either.

Holy shit that's incredible!!

Ed Norton has been my favorite actor forever. I can sort of proudly say that I have seen every one of his movies. I would never say that to him if I met him though. He might go HULK on me for being a stalker.

I just hope this movie doesn't suck as bad as the Ang Lee hulk did.

Norton is truly one of the top male leads in all of Hollywood and one of my favorite actors. From American History X to Rounders to Fight Club to Red Dragon and 25th Hour and most recently The Illusionist, the man is one of the best actors out there.

This is slightly off-topic, but as Edward Norton is an oft ignored leading man, what about Christian Bale? He's gold in everything he does (ex. American Psycho, Machinist, The Prestige...oh yeah, and the last Batman) and reminds me a lot of Norton, or vice versa. I'm a fan of Clive Owen as well...

Anyways, I don't know about another Hulk movie...the first one was horribly done, and while it's a different actor, director, and so on...I don't know.

Christian Bale is my favorite actor. I didn't know much about him, but I watched Batman Begins and Nick prompted me to watch Machinist and anyone that can be that dedicated to their line of work, they're amazing.

The way he manipulates his body for the perfect portrayel, amazing. I now officially own American Psycho (even in the novel, I could only imagine him as Bateman), Reign of Fire, Equilibrium, The Machinist, Batman Begins, The New World (although he wasn't leading in it) & The Prestige.

I can't wait for TDK. Even the trailer of Rescue Dawn has me quite pumped up.

Hollywood's got some class A actors. Bale, Norton, I didn't like DiCaprio much because of Titanic/The Beach, but Departed & Blood Diamond (especially the latter, his diction alone was wow'ing) have me sold. Another favorite is Matt Damon. Since I saw him in Good Will Hunting, I've watched all his movies. Even stupid ones like Stuck On You. Can't wait for the Bourne Ultimatum.

Some good sequals are coming up.

:chug: You just named all of my favorite actors. I would have to agree with you 100% on what you said, especially since I was sold on Damon and DiCaprio from Good Will Hunting and The Departed. One more guy I'm gonna throw in as one of my faves would be Kevin Spacey, though I didn't like him much in Superman.

If anyone can pull it off, it's Norton.
He can make you believe that he transformed into the Hulk w/o actually transforming into the green brute just by his acting.

I didn't like the snoozefest that is the first Hulk. Bana barely acted, the special effects was the star of the movie. Too bad the special efects was crap.
HE'S USING HYPNOSIS!

BIG bump. Here's the first trailer for the new Hulk movie. Apparently they filmed the final scene of the movie right in downtown Toronto from like Sept. 16-19, 2007. Damn, I missed it. You can search like "Hulk Toronto" on youtube and you can see like random videos people took of the area around the set.

[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=v66jXKbfgJY[/youtube]

The Apollo building you see throughout the trailer is actually a strip club called "Zanzibar" with adjustments made to it :lol: . Though for some reason, in that final charge scene shown in the trailer, both the Apollo and the actual real-life building name, the "Zanzibar" is shown. There's also a building at around 1:55 of the trailer to the left with big lighted up circles is a large music store called "Sam the Record Man".

Sorry, went off on a tangent there at the end, just kinda funny noticing random parts of Toronto clearly shown in the trailer.
