In Remake News

Edward Norton will play Bruce Banner in The Incredible Hulk, taking over the role played by Eric Bana in the first Hulk movie. Louis Leterrier (Transporter 2) will direct with an eye on a June 13, 2008 release. The movie begins with Banner on the run, trying to avoid capture long enough to cure the condition that turns him into the Hulk.

I for one hope that they cast a big dude in the role of Hulk and do away with the CGI. There's no way to make a CGI Hulk realistic. And I like my comic book movies realistic.

Warner Bros. has tapped writer Lawrence Kasdan (Return of the Jedi, The Empire Strikes Back, Raiders of the Lost Ark) to pen a remake of the 1981 cult classic Clash of the Titans. The story revolves around Zeus' son, Perseus, and his journey to save Princess Andromeda. Zeus forces his son to face various trials along the way, including capturing Pegasus and slaying Medusa.

I'd be totally up for an updated Clash of the Titans. Bring back Harry Hamlin in a bad wig!
