With Ang Lee's HULK opening in theaters today, all eyes in the industry will be on how much money the film will gross this weekend. It seems a good bet that if the picture does well a sequel is inevitable.

But according to an article that first appeared in USA Today, HULK screenwriter James Schamus is already hard at work on the script for HULK 2. The sequel's storyline draws upon the comic book further by using the gray-skinned Hulk which was originally what the character was. (HULK comic writer Peter David later brought back the gray Hulk in the 1980s.) Schamus' idea is to make the gray Hulk a villain, another manifestation of Bruce Banner's tortured psyche. He is also contemplating using The Leader (another gamma radiation mutant, this time producing super-intelligence) and The Abomination (a gamma guy even uglier and meaner than the Hulk) as possible villains in HULK 2.

If the HULK does big box office this coming weekend, expect to hear more about Schamus' future plans for the new franchise.
