Last week we mentioned that Edward Norton wasn’t coming back as the Hulk in The Avengers. Although Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and Norton’s agent had a war of words, Norton himself stayed above the fray and just issued a statement confirming the news and thanking his fans. The next day the rumors already started, as Mark Ruffalo is rumored to be in talks to play Dr. Banner.
