Edward Norton unsure of HULK’s future
Posted by Matt Holmes
Unlike the case with Jon Favreau and IRON MAN where it was never in doubt there would be a sequel to their Summer spectacular, it was just a question of sooner rather than later - the same thing can’t be said for THE INCREDIBLE HULK.
Edward Norton speaks candidly about his future to MTV…
“The minds of Marvel are sometimes opaque,” Norton told MTV News. “I won’t say [they're] obtuse, but I don’t have any idea what they want to do.”
“They’ve got this notion of collecting the Marvel characters,” said Norton, who appeared a bit skeptical of Marvel’s ambitious plans for the project. “Who knows where they’ll go?”
It didn’t make as much money as IRON MAN. It wasn’t as well reviewed, it wasn’t as well liked by the fanboys (though I do think it fell more on the positive side) and it just simply wasn’t as cool.
Will we see another one? Probably… but only to keep the character alive for THE AVENGERS. I honestly think that team-up movie is keeping the character on life support right now. But I’m not sure we will see Eddie Norton back.

I wouldn’t mind if there wasn’t a sequel. I didn’t leave the theater excited for one. I think the general public might just not have much interest in Hulk anymore.
Didn’t Norton refuse to promote the movie during release? He won’t be allowed anywhere near future Hulk projects. Can’t wait to see his cut on DVD.
