At the world premiere for Universal Pictures' The Incredible Hulk, ComingSoon.net/Superhero Hype! briefly talked to director Louis Leterrier about whether he would be on board to make a sequel.

"I'll do another 'Hulk' movie any day of the week. I love it! I love the character, I love the TV show. I love that he's an anti-hero," Leterrier told us exclusively.

"It starts with a great story and great cast. If you like movies, you'll like 'Hulk,'" he added.

When asked how this movie is different from Ang Lee's 2003 big screen version, he said, "It's very different, [but] not because it has to be different because I love Ang's movie. I think Ang's movie is a superb movie and I felt comfortable taking on the task. At first it was really daunting and I was really afraid because Ang is an amazing director. I wanted to do the compliment of what Ang has done so it's faster and more action."

In addition to wanting to direct another "Hulk" film, Leterrier would be up for The Avengers as well.

"I'll direct anything that Marvel puts out. I'm going to be camping out at the Marvel office to direct anything they want," he said.

The Incredible Hulk opens in theaters on Friday, June 13.

well we have to see first the incredible hulk, see how it works,if its ok, maybe he could do another one, but i hate the mentality right now, "ok we have a bunch of money we have to expend it in another one as fast as we can", no no no, lets take some time, i mean the dark knight come with a lot of preparation and premieres until july 18, the incredible hulk begin shooting after the dark knight began, and its premieres sooner, i dont understand, but the clips that i have seen of the incredible hulk looks like a video game, it looks unrealistic (ok i know its a fake and that its a movie but c´mon it looks like a damn videogame), and i don´t know where this is going with marvel, they do it right so far, please keep that way

lets wait and see how Hulk turns out before giving him anything else. And I think Avengers is best given to Favrou.

Any of you fans that liked Ang's version of the hulk can go broke back on themselves. This version has finally captureed the true essence of the Hulk. With Marvel being the company producing these characters now don't expected anything but true comics to movies without compromise!!!!!

Went to see a screening of The Hulk last night - all I can say is that it is an excellent film, full of action, suspense and, what surprised me the most, some great human drama to the story. I was very impressed all around. Make sure you pay attention to what is being shown in the opening credits. I was very happy with film.

Saw the movie last night at a sneek peek and it was Awesome, a must see non-stop action movie. I don't remember seeing Steve Rogers but you do see if you look in the background reallly quick a drawing of Captian America Shield in one scene but you have to look quick. And of course other scene that pump you up if you know Marvel. Its worth going to see the movie.
