As his follow-up to the summer blockbuster "The Hulk," director Ang Lee is taking on the epic love story "Brokeback Mountain," says the Hollywood Reporter.

Based on E. Annie Proulx's short story set in the wilds of Wyoming and Texas, the film centres on two young men, a ranch hand and a rodeo cowboy, who meet in the summer of 1961 and form a lifelong connection.

Larry McMurty, author of "Lonesome Dove" and "The Last Picture Show," is adapting the story.
