While in Toronto attending the International Film Festival, MTV News tracked down Edward Norton who addressed the rumors that Bruce Banner/The Hulk will appear in 'Iron Man 2'

"I heard that. I don't know where that's coming from. I am not in Iron Man 2 to my knowledge."

Even though there's still no word on where Marvel plans to go next with the Hulk franchise — or if Norton will return for any future films — it looks like they haven't approached the actor to reprise his role as Bruce Banner... yet!

But would he be needed if they just use the Hulk and not Bruce Banner?

well, they didn't film either of the two other previous cameos until just weeks the film was ready to be distributed so I suppose there is still time.

Pipe dreams LEEE old buddy.

Norton's in the wind. It's back to the recast drawing board for Doc Bruce Banner. Hulk may be in Avengers... I'm guessing Bruce, not so much.

LEE: There have been quite a lot of rumours going about that he might have some sort of cameo in Iron Man 2 to set up 'The Avengers'!

I hope that there's some sort of set up for The Avengers in Iron Man 2 but maybe they're saving them for Thor and Captain America!

Talking of Captain America, arent we supposed to be hearing some Cap casting news in the next month or so!?!

We need Ed as Hulk, sure he can be difficult, but with Zak Penn writing Avengers we're bound to need someone who can come up with a decent rewrite on the spot. RDJ, Norton, Hemsworth, Jackson, Hurt, Johansen, we need that cast.

I hope Norton does come back, but I've heard he might not because he fell out with the studio...

Dammit! They just keep pushing Ed norton farther and farther away from marvel

i think it would have been cool to see him in iron man 2 but its not really needed. i do think he should be in all the future hulk movies as he was a great bruce banner and hes a good actor!

Damn it! I so wanted to see a Banner cameo in IM 2!

But as long as they have him as a major player in Avengers, I don't mind.

They will probably have a tie-in with Cap or Thor. Big deal that Norton isn't in Ironman 2, maybe the Hulk will be there, after all he is CGI.

Ozy @ What r u talkin about? That's news to me.
If anything Cap will be pushed to a later summer installment. August the latest. As for the Hulk there is no need for a set up with him in Iron Man II. We already have Nick Fury, and Black Widow.

Hulk @ the end of THOR wrecking up some train tracks would be a better set up for the Avengers.

BBBBBBBOOOOOO! I hope he is bull shitin! Why put Starks in the hulk, if not banner in IronMan. Still crossing my fingers. But maybe your right retr0g0dfather. Maybe it will just be the Hulk.

I've heard nothing about Avengers being pushed back.

I've looked on Google and cant find any news reports saying that either movie has been delayed! Where exactly did you hear that Ozy?

The Avengers movie will have everything the comics have.

I'm even going as far as to say there will be a Namor cameo. Wasp, Ant-Man, and his transformation to Giantman.

He's the perfect Bruce Banner!

I'd feel a lot better about another Hulk movie if he did do a cameo in Iron Man 2

Thought the Bruce cameo was a load of rubbish when I first heard of it but I hope at least one other major Marvel character will cameo in Iron Man 2 to lead up to the Avengers to follow the Nick Fury cameo in Iron Man 1

Cap and Thor had already been pushed back in March. Now they did it again, but only by a few months.

For several months now we have known that Avengers was pushed back to 2012 and Thor and Cap would be in 2011.

So here's the scoop gentlemen: Captain America was set for May of 2011. Now it will come out July 2011 (just in time for the Fourth lol)

Thor was set to hit theaters in May 2011. Now instead it will come out in June.

I don't know why but apparently they shuffled things because of the Spider - Man 4 release.

Here's a web address friends: http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601088&sid=aDOsX4LNDv5U&refer=muse

They don't need him in Iron Man 2. Just like they don't need Ed Norton in The Avengers either. They just need a body to transform into agiant HULKING monster.Bruce Banner isn't going to have the whole film around his character so who plays it doesn't matter.
flames809
flames809 - 9/15/2009, 7:01 PM
if Bruce doesn't show im self then hulk could show him self but hes probably lie
antz1104 @ yes it does matter of who plays him
Roscoe182
Roscoe182 - 9/15/2009, 7:06 PM
@ antz i do kinda agree bt i think u need 2 have sum 1 like norton who can act so they can give emotion an pain wen he is banner . bt like i said b4 he is by far the best banner/hulk

I don't get it...If Norton is not appearing as a cameo in Iron Man 2 then why does his name appear in Iron Man 2 credits on the imdb.com website?? Take a look for yourself:

@LEEE - It's probably coming from that website Comics2film, yeah those guys are losers...Especially some from SuperHeroHype...

Like I said before the Hulk better be in the Avengers movie cause it wouldn't be the Avengers, it'll be more like Civil War...
BEO
BEO - 9/15/2009, 7:51 PM
It doesn't make sense for the hulk or bruce banner's cameo on Iron man 2, Stark already did a cameo on the hulk...so the two character already tied in. It will be repetitive except the other way around. They have to spread the cameo spot to other characters like Thor or Cap

OZY: I wouldnt believe anything until its made official! thanks for the heads up though, ill take a look around! :)
