Washington, February 28 (ANI): Hollywood actor Eric Bana has vowed never to play comic characters, for he thinks that this genre left him "burnt out".

Before earning fame in cinema, the 'Incredible Hulk' star was associated with the television industry.

He made his TV debut in 1993 as a sketch artist and writer for Australian comedy show 'Full Frontal'.

However, the 39-year-old actor now insists that his days as a comedian are now over.

"By the time I started doing film I was kind of burnt out. I know it is frustrating for people who like to see that stuff and I just tell them to go onto (uploading website) YouTube," Contactmusic quoted him as saying.

"I just had had enough of it. I did it for a long time back home where they probably don't take me seriously and internationally, people can't believe I was once funny so it's a good scenario, I enjoy that scenario," he added. (ANI)
