Edward Norton - Original Hulk Finally Gets To Roar

The original TV HULK LOU FERRIGNO is a huge part of the latest film about the mean green giant - he provided the grunts and roars for EDWARD NORTON's angry alter-ego.

Ferrigno, who also plays a pizza-loving security guard in the new blockbuster, never got the chance to give The Hulk a voice in the original 1970s TV series or the much-maligned 2003 movie adaptation but he's more than making up for it now.

The 56-year-old bodybuilder says, "The (original) growl was done by Ted Cassidy, who played Lurch on The Addams Family."

Ferrigno's voice track was one of the last things to be completed for The Incredible HUlk, which hit the top of the U.S. box office at the weekend (15Jun08).

He adds, "I just recorded the voice for the film two-and-a-half months ago."
