Comics:
The Hulk is a fictional character, a superhero in the
Marvel Comics Universe. Created by
Stan Lee and
Jack Kirby, the character first appeared in
The Incredible Hulk #1 (May 1962).
The Hulk is cast as the emotional and impulsive alter ego of the withdrawn and reserved physicist
Dr. Bruce Banner.
The Hulk appears shortly after Banner is accidentally exposed to the blast of a test detonation of a gamma bomb he invented. Subsequently, Banner will involuntarily transform into the
Hulk, depicted as a giant, raging, humanoid monster, leading to extreme complications in Banner's life. Lee said the
Hulk's creation was inspired by a combination of
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and
Frankenstein.
Although the
Hulk's coloration has varied throughout the character's publication history, the most consistent shade is green. As the
Hulk, Banner is capable of significant feats of strength, the magnitude of which increase in direct proportion to the character's anger. As the character himself puts it,
"The madder Hulk gets, the stronger Hulk gets!" Strong emotions such as anger, terror and grief are also triggers for forcing Banner's transformation into the
Hulk. A common storyline is the pursuit of both Banner and the
Hulk by the U.S. armed forces, because of all the destruction that he causes.
The Hulk has since been depicted in various other media, most notably by
Bill Bixby as
Dr. David Banner and
Lou Ferrigno as
the Hulk in the live-action television series and five made-for-television movies. Others have been: multiple animated series, through the use of
CGI in Hulk (2003) and
The Incredible Hulk (2008), and various video games. The most recent CGI portrayal is in the 2012 film
The Avengers.
Film:
Hulk (also known as
The Hulk) is a 2003 American superhero film based on the fictional
Marvel Comics character of the same name.
Ang Lee directed the film, which stars
Eric Bana as
Dr. Bruce Banner, as well as
Jennifer Connelly,
Sam Elliott,
Josh Lucas, and
Nick Nolte. The film explores the origins of
the Hulk, which is partially attributed to Banner's father's experiments on himself, and on his son.
Development for the film started as far back as 1990. The film was at one point to be directed by
Joe Johnston and then
Jonathan Hensleigh. More scripts had been written by
Hensleigh,
John Turman,
Michael France,
Zak Penn,
J. J. Abrams,
Scott Alexander and
Larry Karaszewski,
Michael Tolkin, and
David Hayter before
Ang Lee and
James Schamus' involvement.
Hulk was shot mostly in
California, primarily in the
San Francisco Bay Area. The film was released with mixed reviews and grossed over $245 million worldwide.
Marvel Studios rebooted it in 2008 with
The Incredible Hulk.
