Ask 'Incredible Hulk' Stars and Director a Question
Filed under: Fandom, Interviews, Unscripted, Summer Movies
In theaters June 13, this new Hulk movie sees Banner trying desperately to "cure" himself of the gamma radiation that unleashes the not-so-jolly green giant within, all the while struggling with his secret identity, dodging the industrial military complex, pining for his true love (Liv Tyler) and confronting a nasty enemy known as The Abomination (Tim Roth).
Who better to play such a multi-faceted Hulk than the versatile Norton, an actor who lives to play complex characters? How did he approach playing the role -- and what was his interpretation of the line "HULK SMASH!"?
You don't have to wonder -- you can ask him yourself. Edward Norton, Liv Tyler and director Louis Leterrier (known for the Transporter movies) have just agreed to huddle for Moviefone's Unscripted series, in which they'll interview each other using your questions.
You know what to do. Ask your question for any one of the three (or all three!) in the comments below, and be sure to include your first name and your city and state; then come back here on June 9 to see if your question got asked. The interview's happening on Monday, June 2 -- so submit by Monday morning, or else you'll make Hulk mad. And you wouldn't want to make him mad, would you?

How much pressure is on you with the success of Iron Man and Marvel Studios riding on both movies?
Also how hard was it to combine both elements of the comic book and the classic tv series without repeating the mistakes of the Ang Lee Hulk?

To Edward Norton: What attracted you to a character like the Hulk and just the overall comic book genre?

I want at least one "HULK SMASH!" or it isn't the Hulk to me. "Puny Human" wouldn't hurt either. or "Hulk hate puny Banner"

How do all of you feel about Ang Lee's Hulk film. I know Mr. Leterrier said he likes it but do you like it as a standalone film or as a Hulk film? Also, what are Mr. Norton's thoughts on an Avengers film and of the recent Ironman film?

to Ed Norton,
As an actor do you prepare differently for a "comic book" character than you would for a more "serious" movie. Do you approach the character in a less serious manner than say you did the character in "The Painted Veil" which I thought you were great in.

Why does the abomination not look like what he was from the comics?

I read somthing about how the director didnt think it made much sense that the abomination looked like a reptile, im not sure why, so he made him look different.
and i like them keeping things the same from the comics, but the abomination looks awesome in this, and they're already doing a good job at keeping close to the comics.

DOES THIS FILM HAVE ANY CONNECTIONS TO THE FIRST HULK FILM OR IS IT A COMPLETE REVAMP?

I think i started out as a remake, but then it was like a remake and a sequal, and now im pretty sure its pretty much just a remake but it still sort of starts where they left off in the first film with banner hiding. They'll probobly like explain or have flashbacks of how he got to be the hulk so that it was just like the style of the film to start off sort of in the middle and explain why hes hiding and why the government is after him throughout the film, or the beginning of the film atleast.

To anyone, do you feel Marvel has placed this movie second tier to Iron Man? They seemed to of put more effort into making that a success than they have TIH for reasons unknown.
