Lou Ferrigno and Bill Bixby in The Trial of the Incredible Hulk (1989)

Trivia

The Trial of the Incredible Hulk

Edit
Stan Lee has a cameo as the foreman of the jury in the dream sequence. This marks his first ever cameo in a Marvel Comics adaptation, though this would become a tradition in later adaptations.
Daredevil is dressed entirely in black in this film, despite his dark-red costume in the comics. Soon after this film was released, the comics gave Daredevil a black costume in the mini-series The Man Without Fear and was later used in Daredevil (2015)
This was the only time in the history of "The Incredible Hulk" live-action television series, and its three television movies, that the Hulk wore his trademark purple pants from the comic books. It occurs in the dream sequence, when David Banner is being questioned on the witness stand, and he ends up changing into the Hulk.
It was decided by the producers to change the Daredevil costume from red to black, because they felt that an all-red suit would not translate well, and look good in a television film. Daredevil's co-Creator, Stan Lee, was publicly critical of the all-black Daredevil costume for this movie, as he felt the suit appeared to let the bad guys know of his blindness.
John Rhys-Davies accepted the role of Wilson Fisk, a.k.a. The Kingpin, without knowing that the character is bald and clean-shaven in the comics. When he learned this, he offered to shave his head, as the producers were unable to get him a bald skullcap. However, they declined, and Rhys-Davies appeared with a different look. Additionally, Fisk is never referred to as "The Kingpin" in the film.
