According to The Hollywood Reporter actor William Hurt has joined the cast of Marvel's Incredible Hulk movie joining Edward Norton, Liv Tyler and Tim Roth.  Louis Leterrier is directing the Hulk from a script by Zak Penn.  Marvel is planning a clean break from Ang Lee's Hulk film -- no one from the original cast or from the behind-the-camera crew who worked on the earlier Hulk movie will reprise their roles in the new Hulk film.

 

The addition of the well-respected Hurt, who delivered a stellar performance in the graphic novel-based A History of Violence, indicates, along with the cast of Norton, Tyler and Roth, that Marvel Studios has been able to tap into top Hollywood acting talent for this project, which will begin principal photography this summer and will debut on June 13th, 2008.
