The Incredible Hulk (TV)

11/16/10 - The Hellboy director and the Battlestar Galactica producer are teaming up to bring the Hulk to ABC in the fall of 2012.  This new Hulk series will be likely be an origin story, featuring an energized, twenty-something Bruce Banner. And while the various movie Hulks were entirely CGI beasts, the series will use a mixture of prosthetics, puppetry and CGI to realize Banner's alter ago, the design of which will be overseen by Del Toro. The two men will develop the pilot episode's story together, with Eick doing the scripting and Del Toro directing.  The Hulk would most likely premiere in fall 2012.

ABC had no comment.
