Original Hulk Star Lou Ferrigno Throws Shade On Other Superhero Actors

Lou Ferrigno is best known for starring in The Incredible Hulk in the 1970s, playing the Hulk opposite Bill Bixby’s Dr. Banner. These days, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has Mark Ruffalo playing both sides of the character thanks to CGI technology. Since Ruffalo joined the MCU, Ferrigno has been pretty open about his distaste for the franchise’s take on the Hulk, saying he’s “not very impressed” with Disney’s use of CGI. Ferrigno expressed similar sentiments on Twitter this week, throwing shade at Ruffalo and other actors who are altered with today’s technology.

Can’t think of another superhero that isn’t in costume or CGI.

Worked damn hard on my diet and exercise for the Hulk. Wasn’t going to let anyone down. The hulk was my hero as a kid as well 👍🏽#hulkseries #oghulk #nocgiinvolved #dietandexercise #louferrigno #dontmakemeangry pic.twitter.com/ulh3dbx2Qc

Thanks @MensHealthMag for this piece on me, my career + tips about what I eat.

When you think about it I was the only superhero character to not wear a costume so keeping up my physique was very important to me! https://t.co/V93IdfvZUY pic.twitter.com/I2TA3QhiBt
