Marvel Confirms They’re Going With A New Hulk For The Avengers

Following their initial article about the possibility of a Edward Norton-less Avengers, now Marvel has confirmed directly to Hitfix that Norton will, indeed, be replaced. Here’s what they said:

“We have made the decision to not bring Ed Norton back to portray the title role of Bruce Banner in the Avengers. 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, Chris H, Chris E, Sam, Scarlett, 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.”
