I'm still not sure they can do a great job on Hulk himself with a tv budget.

They're using the CGI model from The Avengers for the TV series. As in, they are literally using the model ILM/WETA designed to be used in the TV show.

Oh well that's great. Should be awesome then.

 

[TheVileOne]

Still doesn't mean you can get all the same quality visuals on a TV budget.

 

[Infinity9999x]

I'm assuming they'll be casting a new actor for Banner?

No, but you can get a ****load more quality time with Hulkster in a TV show, and you don't have to wait every 3-4 years to see the next episode.

 

[TheVileOne]

I dunno if there's Hulk, what about his fights and what kind of enemies will it be? Will there be other super-powered threats and weapons?

 

[Infinity9999x]

Will the TV show also count as part of the Marvel film continuity?

 

[Spider-Vader]

There's been rumors about it, I assume since there will be no movies while the shows on the air I'd hope that it's canon in the MCU.

 

[Raiden]

I agree, and no matter what a TV show that has a CGI creature in every episode is bound to get expensive. Hopefully they can pull it off, but I'm guess that they'll cast a new actor as Banner, which makes it 5th straight new Banner in five TV/movies based on Hulk.

 

[Sawyer]

5th?

 

[TheVileOne]

I guess counting the old TV show, the three live action movies, and now the new TV show.

 

[Mysteryman]

I was always impressed by what that TV show pulled off without high budget effects or Supervillains .
They might be LESS Successful sticking to the comics and using CGI.

 

[terry78]

More than likely the main antagonist will be like Ross chasing him every week and occasionally teaming up in a reluctant manner to fight something worse.

 

[Raiden]

I guess counting the old TV show, the three live action movies, and now the new TV show.

Yeah, there are/will be a total of five actors playing Banner:

Original Hulk series: Bill Bixby
Ang Lee's Hulk: Eric Bana
TIH: Edward Norton
The Avengers: Mark Raffalo
New Hulk series: ??? (not Raffalo)

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I'm assuming they'll be casting a new actor for Banner?

I'm thinking that as well.

My guess is it will be a blend of routine villains (the usual assortment of gangsters and thugs, and large doses of run-ins with the military) and *occasionally* a CGI supervillain from the pages of the comic books. Plus, as the Bixby series showed, not every Hulk story has to involve a fistfight; there's plenty of drama to be had in burning buildings, plane crashes, natural disasters, etc.

I'm hoping to see Samuel Sterns return, and to see The Leader actually rise and become a recurring villain.

 

[Marvel Spider]

The Hulk in the show will be a mix of CG, prosthetics and puppetry. So, obviously, they are tweaking some things for the TV format.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I'd love to see the Leader as well, cherokeeasm. Ever since the end of TIH, I've been wanting to see him.

 

[Marvel Spider]

Agreed. Hopefully they just don't throw him away.

 

[BigThor]

Agreed. Hopefully they just don't throw him away.

I feel the same way

A puppet Hulk? Wut???

 

[Superhero 101]

It'd be interesting to see if they would have Guest Heroes like Smallville had.

 

[Godzilla2000]

Hey, I have a great idea. How about like in the old days we all wait for the movie to come out in the theaters to find out what the alien menace will be?

 

[Scarecrow_King]

Hey, I have a great idea. Let's all join a superhero forum and then not talk about upcoming movies?

 

[WildcatNC]

Your kidding right? In this age of the interwebz??
