Hollywood
actor
Edward
Norton,
who
immortalized
the
character
of
'Hulk" in
the
movie
The
Incredible
Hulk,
will
not
be
seen
in
the
sequel
of
this
superhero
film
of
2008.
A
spokesperson
of
Marvel
Studios,
said,
“We
have
decided
not
to
take
Ed
Norton
again
to
reprise
the
character
of
Bruce
Banner
or
the
Hulk
in
The
Avengers,
a
sequel
of
The
Incredible
Hulk.
The
decision
is
not
taken
for
financial
reasons
but
for
taking
an
actor
who
can
represent
the
creativity
and
collaborative
spirit
of
the
other
talented
cast
members".
He
added,
“The
movie
demands
actors,
who
can
flourish
working
as
part
of
a
group,
as
proved
by
Chris
H,
Robert
Scarlett,
Sam
and
our
entire
talented
cast.
We
will
be
announcing
a
name,
who
is
very
passionate
about
this
iconic
role
and
can
fulfill
all
the
other
requirements.
We
will
decide
on
the
name
in
the
coming
weeks".
There
is
already
a
name
of
actor
doing
the
rounds
to
play
the
role
of
Bruce
Banner.
Some
sources
have
revealed
that
Joaquin
Phoenix
has
been
offered
by
Marvel
to
step
into
the
role.
Reacting
on
this
news
of
his
replacement,
Edward
Norton
said,
“I
am
very
touched
by
the
response
and
support
from
my
fans.
I
hoped
to
be
a
part
of
The
Avenger
but
it
would
not
happen
probably.
I
feel
sad
to
disappoint
the
fans".
With
a
new
face
of
Hulk,
the
reaction
of
the
audience
would
be
interesting
to
watch!
