Hollywood North Report has the scoop on
Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer.
The sequel to last year's $160 million box office hit will reportedly be an adaptation of the 1966 comic book story arc the "Coming of Galactus" created by writer Stan "The Man" Lee and artist/co-writer Jack "King" Kirby for Marvel Comics' "Fantastic Four" issues #48-#50.
According to the stories, the Surfer was astronomer 'Norrin Radd' from the planet 'Zenn-La'.
Radd reluctantly agreed to serve as a 'herald' to the world-destroying entity 'Galactus' in order to spare Zenn-La from the god-like creature's insatiable, energy needs.
Based on Radd's childhood fantasies, Galactus granted cosmic powers to his new sentinel, complete with indestructible silvery skin and space 'surfboard', enabling Radd to roam star systems as the 'Silver Surfer', searching for new planets for Galactus to consume.
But while setting up the Earth for Galactus, Radd is challenged by the "Fantastic Four" and unexpectedly falls in love with 'Alicia Masters', blind daughter of the 'Puppet Master' and girlfriend of hot-tempered 'Ben Grimm', aka 'The Thing'.
Cinescape has the scoop on
Incredible Hulk, the sequel to 2003's
Hulk. It looks like Universal isn't going to be participating and that Eric Bana will not be returning in the lead role.
He said, "Well, here's what I found out : Universal isn't really doing it. It's going to be done through Marvel (independently, or close too) and it's called "Incredible Hulk". Bana is definitely not doing it - his contract was with Universal, and so on - so they're going to get a new Hulk. They're not going to be auditioning, but merely 'going out' to names. Should've guessed. Apparently the following guys could be either in consideration or in talks for the role : Dominic Purcell, Brendan Fraser, Adam Garcia. Typical bunch of names, if you ask me."
