In 2008 zagen we Edward Norton in de reboot van Hulk uit 2003. Ondanks dat de film hoger werd gewaardeerd, deed de The Incredible Hulk het financieel niet veel beter dan zijn voorganger. De geruchten waren dat Norton het hierna verder wel gezien had met het groene monster, maar daar lijkt hij toch op terug te komen. In een interview met Hitfix zegt hij onder andere het volgende.
When I sat down with Tim Blake Nelson and Edward Norton to discuss their new collaboration “Leaves Of Grass,” we had a free-ranging conversation that was terribly enjoyable, and it was only when we stood up to leave that I finally broached the “Hulk” subject with Norton. Part of me suspected that he would dodge the query or defer it, which is why I left it to the end. Surprisingly, Norton seemed more than willing to discuss it, and his answers were to-the-point and more optimistic than I would have imagined.
“It’s really up to you guys,” he told me at one point, and by “you guys,” he was referring to fans and the fan press in particular. “Is it important to you? Does that continuity matter?” The answer seems to me to be yes, it does matter to people, and there’s something appealing about the notion of Edward Norton, Robert Downey Jr., and Chris Hemsworth together. That’s chemistry I’d like to see. Downey’s hyper-confident Tony Stark would make an excellent foil for Norton’s twitchy energy as the haunted Banner.
Het lot ligt dus in jullie handen. Norton terug als Hulk in The Avengers? (en Hulk 3?)
