I know opinions on the original Hulk flick have been mixed, but as I've said before I really enjoyed it and have been hoping a sequel would get done. Well it looks even more like this will happen with the news that Jennifer Connelly has signed her name on
to be a part of it.

I've had a huge respect for Connelly ever since seeing Requiem for a Dream. She went on to win an Oscar for her work in A Beautiful Mind (where she met her husband Paul Bettany). So forgive me if I'm a bit giddy. Now, take all this with the grain of salt that I think they MUST get Eric Bana back or this thing doesn't work. The good folks over at Comic Book Movie give us this:

Jennifer Connelly's rep told USA Today she's contracted to do Hulk 2. She was recently spotted supporting husband Paul Bettany whose film Wimbledon debuted last week. In the first film, Connelly played Betty Ross, the scientist daughter of Col. Thunderbolt Ross and girlfriend of Bruce Banner.
