From Comics2Film's coverage of the Hulk junket, producer/scribe James Schamus discusses adapting an iconic character...

Q: What kind of pressure did it put on you, adapting such an iconic character?

James Schamus (JS): The pressure is very much self-imposed. We knew we wanted to make a move that, in essence, paid real homage to "The Hulk" and to Stan Lee and Jack Kirby's original vision. We also knew that we wanted to create a movie that nobody had ever seen before, both in terms of its language, the transitions and the multiple frames, as well as the place it takes you emotionally in this comic book world. So we kind of did it to ourselves.
