10 Truly Awful Superhero Movie & TV Love Interests
4. Betty Ross - The Incredible Hulk
There's not a whole lot about the Edward Norton version of The Incredible Hulk that most people remember. There's a reason why he made one film and then was the only one replaced from the Avengers lineup when they started that franchise. But out of all the forgettable elements in this film, by far the most egregious example is Betty Ross. Who? Exactly.
It's hard to imagine that many audience members can remember a single detail about her character. It's probably even a stretch to try to recall exactly who played her.
That's how nonexistent Liv Tyler is in this role. In point of fact, it's not really fair to even call it a role so much as a thinly sketched cardboard cutout of an obligatory romantic interest. The film feels like it has so many other things to deal with that Betty Ross is always an afterthought, which is always a kiss of death when it comes to trying to create viable female characters within a superhero universe.
