Jan 19 2006Hulk 2 is a go?
You think a killer poodle might be in this one, too? If they want to throw money away, why oh why won't they use my trashcan?
Former X-Files star David Duchovny is set to become the new Incredible Hulk after Aussie actor Eric Bana pulled out of the sequel project. Peter Cuneo, the vice chairman of comic book franchise Marvel, revealed Duchovny is the frontrunner to play the green giant in The Incredible Hulk 2 in a recent interview with AOL's Motley Fool Radio Team. He said, "Duchovny's name has been bought up several times. He's quite the fan too." Bana pulled out of the sequel when he discovered the plan was to release the film direct to DVD.
My man Bana knows not to board the Titanic a second time. I know David Duchovny's been a little light on work since The X-Files, but he should ask a couple of friends of mine about getting involved with Ang Lee. Read that script thoroughly, or you might find yourself crying on Tea Leoni's shoulder over what the bad man made you do.

wow, they got one of the most emotionless actors to play a "hero" that's nothing but emotion. It'll be nice to see the Hulk finally learn the truth about UFOs though.

Yes it's been confirmed that there will be a Hulk 2, but the Hulk wont be as big and David wont be playing Banner. The interview that explains it all is over at Aint It Cool News.

Hey, I'd watch David Duchovny recite the phone book so a straight-to-DVD Hulk 2 is fine with me. Everyone needs such movies for those days when, say, you're home with a 104 fever and are hallucinating anyway. Or those nights when Desperate Housewives is on.
