Release date: June 20, 2003

Ang Lee’s vision of the Marvel Comic Book Series combines visual-effects with a very human story - a brooding romance and tragedy reminscent of Universal’s classic horror films. The Hulk is both a superhero and a tragic monster in this updated tale of the character created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.

Bruce Banner is transformed in the aftermath of a catastrophic experiment. (Bana will play both Banner and the superhuman Hulk via computer-aided visual effects rather than a rubber suit or body double.) Betty Ross’ scientific genius unwittingly helps unleash the Hulk and Banner’s father unwittingly passes on a tragic legacy to his son. With Ang Lee at the help, the Hulk is one of the most highly anticipated films of 2003.
