What ever happened to the Hulk sequel? No, not the Incredible Hulk starring Ed Norton, or not anything to do with Mark Ruffalo’s version of the character. I’m talking about 2003’s Hulk directed by Ang Lee. It starred Eric Bana as Bruce, and featured a strong supporting cast like Jennifer Connelly, Sam Eliot, Josh Lucas, and Nick Nolte. The film itself was a pretty sizable hit, but it still struggled to break even with its marketing costs. It was also incredibly divisive which didn’t help matters at all when it came to a sequel.
Reading lots of interviews, you find that there were indeed plans to make a second film in this continuity, but a lot of outside forces got in the way, especially when Marvel wanted to make their own Incredible Hulk film. Today will be a discussion about the canceled Hulk sequel, why it failed, what it could have done right, and what it means overall for the future. Does Eric Bana have an opportunity to come back and fight someone like Ruffalo? Would Bana’s Hulk ever become Maestro? ALl great questions and all will be answered after checking out this video!
So join me as I talk all about this new format regarding the Unmade Sequel for Hulk 2003. I imagine there will be a bit of growing pains in regards to what makes videos like this work, so I ask all of you to leave a comment and let me know what type of details or information that you want to hear from this show.

The thing about 2003 Ross is that unlike the MCU that is obsessed with the hulk and even remaking it with Erskine's super soldier serum to be more powerful by MCU's Bruce Banner, the 2003 one is the complete opposite and is against the idea of hulk even being experimented in the first place as he even discussed this with Betty when atheon took control of hulks containment that they are going to be profiting and make lots of money and he despises that as he still feels something and guilty for Bruce as he is the one that threw him away and a collateral and so the maestro route is out of the question entirely. And another added bit of fact is when this was first proposed to him by Bruce's dad, he rejects it as it violates human rights whereas the MCU Ross doesn't care about said human rights.

@dobi287 4 ай бұрын

That's true but Betty does state the only reason Ross had not killed Bruce was the militaries desire to weaponize it. So tho he rejected David's experiments hated him and subsequently his son he saw the potential of an American government hulk

@dobi287 I don't think so. Talbot went behind his back and Ross was pressured into the situation. He's a general, but he still answers to people.

The Incredible Hulk is one of the best, with Edward Norton. I love Ang Lee's Hulk movie and matter of fact I'm going to rewatch tonight. The MCU's Hulk in Avengers and Ragnarok is great but it went all downhill with what fans want. It's not that I dont like him. It's just I want the savage hulk we all want

I imagined that Talbot was able to survive the explosion. Atheon scientists could do experiments with Bruce's DNA or his father's research on recreating a super-soldier. Talbot, now confined to a wheelchair and horrible burns, was obsessed with getting revenge on Bruce and could have become the Abomination

Smart hulk with become the maestro. Maestro believes he is saving the world no other hulk cares making banner revert back to a Savage beast undermines all the work bruce did but having his personality change because of the extra gamma he got from The infinity gauntlet works. Because maestro personality was change because of extra gamma from a gamma bomb.

Instead of a sequel kang should go and get the 2003 hulk from that universe and all of there hulks and cause that time line to be destroyed like I hope they do with the fox universe and then 2003 hulk is maestro and kang can recruit newtons hulk from another timeline and have that universe and the 2003 hulk universe collide and be destroyed and then kang brings them into the mcu for our hulk to fight and maybe even have those 2 hulks involved in world war hulk set up by kang the conquer

The Incredible Hulk is a decent movie but even if that movie didn't happen it wouldn't really affect me on a personal level, but I can't lie and not say that it's interesting to see how these versions of the characters are approached and developed, it's debatable whether a Hulk 2 would've affected a reboot version of the Hulk for the MCU but I really don't think it would have because Ang Lee's Hulk doesn't have any connection to the MCU universe so a reboot would've happened regardless But for me the definitive version for Bruce Banner has always been Eric Bana, he always had the perfect look and personality portrayal for the character and the Hulk not only resemble Bana's facial features but it's the best looking Hulk model in my opinion, Lee's version of the characters and story are what I found to be perfect, just like how Batman Begins was the movie that many Batman fans wanted to see be adapted on-screen, Hulk is the movie that I've always wanted to see happen in the way of a Hulk movie, a dark and gritty character-driven style that explores the trauma and psychological aspects of Banner like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, it saddens me that Hulk 2 was dropped because of how much Lee's movie means to me, the political edge seemed like a nice touch as well and the Grey Hulk idea sounded very cool

@madmanmark8387 Жыл бұрын

I had great expectations for this 2003 movie when I knew it was coming out. I wasn't as thrilled when I saw it. Was a sequel a possibility, I don't know. It left it wide open with possibilities. Had a second movie happened, does the Ed Norton film even get made? Jump now 20 years later, and we see that it is still a possibility that they could revive it and be separate from the MCU. The problem is nobody really knows how to do a good Hulk film and probably never will.
