Liv Tyler plays Betsy Ross in this summer's The Incredible Hulk. She recently spoke to SuperHeroHype about the film.

The actress didn't have a lot to reveal about what to expect from the relationship between her character and Ed Norton's Bruce Banner - but she did watch Ang Lee's The Hulk in order to check out how Jennifer Connelly played the Betsy Ross.

But that's not to say that the new movie will be too similar its predecessor.

"There's nothing similar about the story or even really the characters in a lot of ways," Tyler said. "I mostly went back and watched the television show, which was one of my favorite things my mom and I used to watch all the time.

I would say that the essence of that image of the lone figure of [David] Bruce Banner walking down the street alone with his little backpack hitchhiking, the misunderstood hero having to move onto another town was more of the overall feeling for the film but the story is completely different."

The Incredible Hulk opens on June 13.

While Liv Tyler's Lord of the Rings character, Arwen, doesn't appear in the book of The Hobbit, the actress would not exactly be let down if Peter Jackson called her to star in the big screen version of the story.

"Oh, are you kidding?" she said when asked. "In a heartbeat! I'll buy my own ticket and be on the plane in a second. I mean, that was a magical experience and it was just a once in a lifetime, amazing [thing]. Because it was so like… we knew and we didn't know that it was sort of something that had never been done before, and there was this feeling that was really gung-ho.

Like, 'O.K., let's go off together!' And we just rolled our sleeves up. It really was this amazing, crazy, special thing."
