His music can be heard in promos for everything from Minority Report to Lord of the Rings – and as it so happens, Ang Lee's 2003 version of Hulk. In addition to his work composing music for video games, Griskey has also filled out his time writing music for dozens of movie trailers over the years. Getting a Jump on Them Knowledge of the Hulk mythos was an advantage while working on the project, but Griskey had other advantages as well – not the least of which was the fact that he had written music for the jade giant before. I think the music in the game reflects this." Iron Man makes Tony Stark more than human, whereas the Hulk robs Bruce of his humanity while at the same time empowering him with a sort of primal strength. This is very different than the premise behind Iron Man. "The Hulk is a primitive creature controlled by rage.
"I had a buddy growing up who was an artist and really into comics – he got me into reading some of the comics, and also watching the TV show." "The score for The Hulk is more primal in nature and a lot darker than the music from Iron Man's somewhat heroic score," says Griskey, comparing the two projects. "The Hulk is definitely one of the cooler characters in the Marvel universe," he says. Griskey has been a fan of the Incredible Hulk for years, so writing music for the franchise felt like a perfect fit. The AvengersComposer Mark Griskey recently scored the Iron Man video game, so he was excited to continue his relationship with Sega and Marvel when it came to The Incredible Hulk. And with an original score featuring a 65-piece orchestra paired with rock guitars and electronic elements, there's guaranteed to be more than just the visuals driving the action.
Considering the talented crew at developer Edge of Reality and the solid legacy of previous Hulk games like The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, there's good reason to hope that this will be far more than the standard movie tie-in game. But perhaps more cause for excitement is the Incredible Hulk game headed for current consoles and the Nintendo DS on the 5th, with a PC version to arrive the day before the movie. With Marvel's more hands-on approach for their big-screen ventures paying off with the critical success of Iron Man earlier this year, hopes are high that The Incredible Hulk will follow suit. The film, which opens June 13th, goes back to the Hulk's origins once again in an attempt to reboot the franchise after the previous movie's dismal reception.
