So there might be 9 films after the avengers? Or does that include all of the ones already made? It'd be sweet to see this end at Civil War and the death of captain america
Since they are rebooting spiderman. I hope they include it to be part of the avengers universe and have spiderman in future avengers movies Posted via RS Mobile
Edward Norton will reportedly not be back as the Hulk for The Avengers, despite his self-professed eagerness to reprise his role as Dr. Bruce Banner.
According to HitFix, Marvel has decided to drop Norton and replace him with an unspecified unknown for the Avengers movie -- a lineup the studio is said to be planning to reveal at this month's San Diego Comic-Con.
The site says they're trying to determine "exactly how far apart the Marvel offer and the Norton camp are in terms of money, but even in early conversations, it sounds like a deal could be made here, and simply wasn't."
No exact reason was expressly given for Marvel's decision to not bring back Norton, but the star and Marvel had a notorious go-around while making The Incredible Hulk.
So, if these rumors pan out, what do you guys think of an unknown playing Bruce Banner in The Avengers? Sound off in the Comments below.
UPDATED: Marvel Studios sent a statement to HitFix confirming their earlier scoop that Norton will not be back for The Avengers. Marvel honcho Kevin Feige informed the site: "Our decision is definitely not one based on monetary factors, but instead rooted in the need for an actor who embodies the creativity and collaborative spirit of our other talented cast members. The Avengers demands players who thrive working as part of an ensemble, as evidenced by Robert [Downey], Chris [Hemsworth], Chris (Evans), Sam [Jackson], Scarlett [Johansson], and all of our talented casts. We are looking to announce a name actor who fulfills these requirements, and is passionate about the iconic role in the coming weeks."
Damn that sucks. Part of the coolness of combining the characters from the different movies into one was the consistency. Also I liked Norton as Bruce Banner.
Anyone else think Chris Evans is an odd choice for Captain America?

to him he'll always be the human torch and ya hes just not mature enough lol

^^ he's a good actor n all but i agree.... -_- they should have just gone with Norton
I guess you guys don't know the story.
When they made the Incredible Hulk movie there was disagreements between Marvel Studios and Norton. Norton wanted more psychological, man vs. self type scenes while Marvel wanted a more action.
Their differences lead to Norton refusing to do any type of promotion for the movie.
And I believe a year later they did settle their differences and Norton agreed to be in the Avengers movie but Marvel Studios didn't want to deal with him again. This part I'm not sure if it's true.
But ya, how cool would it have been if Norton was in it? 100% continuity in all the movies for the main characters.
