Just lately Avi Arad confirmed that the Hulk would be going in a totally different direction. He says it will have a new color, new attitude and
new size. Well apparently Avi was just joking around when he suggested grey as a color. Outlined in the following statement taking from Avi.
“It was a joke!†laughs Arad, in town to talk up Spider-Man 3, which opens on May 4. “Here’s what it was. There were 30 people around a table, and they said ‘is there going to be a grey Hulk?’ And I was thinking about it and I said, ‘who knows?’ It was one of those moments. I had just got back from Japan and I was trying to talk about Spider-Man and this guy was pushing me on The Hulk so I thought I’ll be coy. I don’t know what colour it is, and all of a sudden it’s headline news.â€
But Arad did mention a new colour – so will the eponymous star of Louis Letterier’s movie, due out in 2008, still be green? Or orange? Or pink with yellow stripes?
“It’s a different shade of green,†confirms Arad. “But the colour is not like the old Hulk. And no, there’s no grey Hulk.â€
Let’s hope this statement is true as well. At least they are taking a new spin on things whilst staying true to there old school roots. I am sure Stan Lee and Jack Kirby will be happy.
