This is it! I swear a moratorium on me babbling about who's playing who in the Hulk redo, The Incredible Hulk, from here on out. I just will feel a sense of finality once I spit out this final piece of the casting puzzle - that being the villian. We've got Edward Norton and Liv Tyler as our good guys, and it looks like Tim Roth will be following up his stint remaking Funny Games with MNPP-fave Michael Haneke as Emil Blonsky aka Abomination. Says Cinematical:
"Blonsky is a KGB agent who is exposed to the same gamma rays that turned Bruce Banner into the Hulk, but things get screwy with his transformation and he's unable to revert back to human form. He is, however, still able to retain the mental faculties of a human, according to a handy bio of the character on Wikipedia. His other powers include being able to hop long distances like the Hulk, as well as having healing powers and -- I'm not making this up -- being able to hold his breath for a long time."
Yeah, I know. Fascinating. Tis a good cast, though.
