I still think this entire story is completely ridiculous. What did Norton do wrong to get dropped from playing The Hulk in the new Avengers movie? You can see our previous posts on the unfolding saga here and here but in the meantime, Edward Norton has now released what you may call a statement with what he thinks on the matter.

The message is obviously well thought out but what surprises me is that he thanks Marvel for the chance to play The Hulk at all. Personally, I’d be livid (a bit like he looks in the image to the left!) but that’s me I guess!

The message has appeared on the official Edward Norton Facebook fanpage and is in the form of an image which I’ve embedded below and you can click to enlarge.

The latest news is that Joaquin Phoenix is tipped to replace him but we’ll bring you more on that if / as we get it.
