The Incredible Hulk opens to remake its history

by Grace on June 15th, 2008

When the more brooding version of The Hulk (the Ang Lee version) failed to rake in enough monies in 2003, Marvel had its hands full with a complete visual make-over of its 2008 flick The Incredible Hulk. That gamble paid off.

The Incredible Hulk opened this weekend with $54.5 million in 3,500 theaters to take the #1 spot. Rack in another $31 million from 38 other countries and that puts the movie worldwide at $85.5 million worldwide. That’s not bad for a “rebooted” movie.

It’s too early for the studio to commit to a sequel, especially since it still does have to earn beyond the $150 million production expense. But I did read that cast member Tim Blake Nelson (Hulk’s enemy Samuel Sterns/The Leader) is in talks with director Louis Leterrier and producer Gale Ann Hurd for a follow-up. Sequel or not, The Hulk will be returning as part of the superhero team The Avengers. However, there is a big question of Edward Norton returning or not.
