From a panel discussion at the recent Wizard World LA
“The Incredible Hulk” will be released on June 13th. The film is a complete re-boot, however the characters origin will be shown briefly. The title character is not CGI like the last film but instead motion capture similar to the Silver Surfer in “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.”
Tim Roth ("Pulp Fiction") is playing the Abomination and if you saw the trailer that went on-line last week, he does throw down with the Hulk. And the panel confirmed that Robert Downey Jr. has in fact filmed a scene for the movie playing Tony Stark.
“The Dark Knight” the sequel to “Batman Begins” will be out on July 18th. The panel confirmed that Aaron Eckhart is playing both Harvey Dent and Two-Face.
On September 12th, “Punisher: War Zone” shoots into theatres. It, too, is a re-boot of the series and stars Ray Stevenson (“Rome”). The audience had a good laugh because in the promotional photo shown, the actor looked similar to Steven Seagal in “Under Siege.”
January 16th, 2009 is the release date for “Will Eisner’s The Spirit” directed by Frank Miller. Gabriel Macht plays The Spirit while Samuel L. Jackson portrays his arch-nemesis The Octopus. The film also boasts a cast of beautiful women including, Scarlett Johensson, Eva Mendes and Jamie King.
“Dragonball” based on the popular Anime series will kick into theatres on April 3rd, 2009. Justin Chatwin (“War of the Worlds”), Chow Yun-Fat and James Marsters (“Smallville”) star in the film.
“X: Men Origins: Wolverine” claws it’s way into theaters on May 1st, 2009. The film takes place 20 years before the first “X-Men” film. Hugh Jackman returns as Logan with Live Shcreiber (“The Omen”) as Victor Creed and Danny Huston (“30 Day’s of Night”) as a younger William Stryker.
The panel confirmed the rumors about other “X-Men” characters from the comics appearing in the film. Dominic Monaghan has been cast, as Beak and Ryan Reynolds will indeed play Deadpool.
