Guillermo Del Toro, Director of Pan's Labyrinth and Hellboy, is now set to direct an ABC TV series based on Marvel Comics' Hulk.
Del Toro, prasied for his previous creature creations, will oversee the design of the title character. The design will draw from the comic books as well as the Incredible Hulk TV Series that starred Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno. Thankfully, instead of just using CGI, the show will also use puppetry and prosthetics.
The series will retell the origin of the Hulk, and feature a Bruce Banner in his mid-twenties.
It isn't expected to hit airwaves until after the July 2012 release of The Avengers, which features the Hulk as a central character.
