Actor Edward Norton starred in the 2008 movie ‘The Incredible Hulk’ and had a famous scene with Rickson Gracie.
In the scene, Norton who played Bruce Banner was doing Yoga with Rickson because he wanted to control his breathing and as a consequence, his anger in order to contain the Hulk inside of him.
Norton in his recent appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast, talked about his experience in working with Rickson.
Norton revealed that he had always been fascinated by the Gracie family and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu ever since watching Royce Gracie in UFC1. Norton was training Aikido at the time and saw many similarities with Jiu-Jitsu.
