RALEIGH, N.C. -- He’s been a household name for decades, entertaining many of us on the small and big screen through his roles as Hercules, on the reality TV show Celebrity Apprentice, on The King of Queens, and of course as the role of a lifetime, the legendary superhero the Hulk.
This weekend, Lou Ferrigno is in town for Raleigh Supercon, meeting face-to-face with fans who are traveling in town from around the world.
The groundbreaking actor has been able to keep his Hulk image alive, not only reprising the role numerous times, but also being a part of new super hero themed movies and shows along the way. But it’s meeting his fans in person, hearing their inspirational stories of how he impacted their lives and continuing to push others to live a healthy lifestyle that truly keeps Ferrigno young.
Now, decades after his body building competitions and years of playing the Hulk on TV, the actor and motivational speaker continues be in tip-top shape. He’s launched a website to promote his fitness ventures with his wife and continues to go to conventions to meet with his fans.
But if you ask Ferrigno his dream job, it would be his own television series. And after our interaction with the celebrity, we think he deserves all the fame! He was kind, generous, and happy to take pictures with our crew. You too can join in on the fun this weekend.
