The Spot News: Don't Make Del Toro Angry...


Marvel TV Has A Team Ready To Bring Hulk Back


Marvel’s upcoming Television Plans took another interesting turn with Guillermo Del Toro and Battlestar Galactica Producer David Eick teaming up to develop the new Hulk television series for ABC. Eick and Del Toro will develop the storyline together, with Eick then scripting and Del Toro attached to direct. Deadline said tonite:

Talk about a dream pairing for film and TV sci-fi/comic book fans: Guillermo del Toro, the mastermind behind Pan’s Labyrinth and the Hellboy movie franchise, and Battlestar Galactica executive producer David Eick are finalizing a deal to create the new TV series version of The Hulk for ABC, which is being produced by Marvel TV and ABC Studios. It will mark Marvel’s first series project for ABC and ABC Studios since Disney’s acquisition of Marvel last year and the launch of Marvel’s TV division in June. It also marks del Toro’s first TV project. Details of the premise are sketchy but I hear that the series will follow an origin story.
