Trivia

Edward Norton, who had previously rewritten films he starred in, wrote a draft of the script which Louis Leterrier and Marvel Studios found satisfactory in establishing the film as a reboot of Hulk. As Norton explained, "I don't think that in great literature/films explaining the story's roots means it comes in the beginning. Audiences know the story, so we're dealing with it artfully." Norton's rewrite added the character of Doc Samson and mentioned references to other Marvel Comics characters. He also wanted to put in "revelations about what set the whole thing in motion" that would be explained in future installments. See more »

Goofs

Continuity: In the scene where Bruce explains to Betty what can and can't be tracked, the wallet goes from closed to open in one shot. And the $20 bill goes from being neatly tucked in her wallet to crumpled on the bed. See more »

Crazy Credits

SPOILER: In the opening credits, a blueprint of the sonic cannon at Culver University can be seen bearing the title "Stark Industries," indicating that it was Tony Stark (of Iron Man) who built the cannons for General Ross to use against the Hulk. Stark himself appears in the film's post-credits scene. See more »
