About "THE INCREDIBLE HULK"
"THE INCREDIBLE HULK" kicks off an all-new, explosive and action-packed
epic of one of the most popular superheroes of all time. In this new
beginning, scientist Bruce Banner (Edward Norton) desperately hunts for a
cure to the gamma radiation that poisoned his cells and unleashes the
unbridled force of rage within him: The Hulk.
Living in the shadows -- cut off from a life he knew and the woman he
loves, Betty Ross (Liv Tyler) -- Banner struggles to avoid the obsessive
pursuit of his nemesis, General Thunderbolt Ross (William Hurt), and the
military machinery that seeks to capture him and brutally exploit his
power.
As all three grapple with the secrets that led to The Hulk's creation,
they are confronted with a monstrous new adversary known as The Abomination
(Tim Roth), whose destructive strength exceeds even The Hulk's own. And on
June 13, 2008, one scientist must make an agonizing final choice: accept a
peaceful life as Bruce Banner or find heroism in the creature he holds
inside -- THE INCREDIBLE HULK.
