As all the issues weren’t a lot for the producer. The previous investors, who promised to give around $200,000, gave only 10% of it. This also led to a major problem, as money really matters in this kind of project.
In the end, even the weather isn’t in the favor of Pass as the season of shooting has changed. Completing the film will be a real challenge, for sure!
Role of Lou Ferrigno
The Incredible Hulk himself will be performing a different kind of role this time. Lou Ferrigno will play the role of a murderous, cannibalistic pig farmer who cooks people and makes them jerky.

This would be his first time playing a horror role, as well as the first time since he began acting in 1977.
The producer has high hopes, as the footage that has already been shot has turned out to be really good for him. Although fans of the Incredible Hulk are waiting for his comeback in a different role on the big screen.
