Tim Blake Nelson is The Leader

Written by Kal-El

What another Evolving Movie The Hulk seems to be. With the additional Villain, after announcing that Tim Roth earlier will play The Abomination, and now, Tim Blake Nelson has joined the cast of Marvel Studios' The Incredible Hulk. The movie, which Louis Leterrier is directing, sees Bruce Banner/Hulk on the run, trying to avoid capture long enough to cure the condition that turns him into a monster.

Nelson will play a scientist named Samuel Sterns. In Hulk lore, Sterns aka "The Leader" is one of the Hulk's major antagonists, a menial worker in a chemical research plant who is bombarded with gamma radiation. He emerges from his accident not only green-skinned but also superintelligent, with an oversized brain. God Willing how he would look like in Green with a big oversized brain on his head wearing orange jumpsuits...and of course the Goatee also.

Nelson joins a strong comic book movie cast that includes two-time Oscar nominee Edward Norton (Banner), Liv Tyler (Betty Ross), Tim Roth (villain Emil Blonsky/the Abomination) and William Hurt (General Ross, Betty's father). Zak Penn wrote the latest big-screen adventure of the green goliath, which Universal Pictures is distributing domestically June 13, 2008.
