Ever since Marvel Studios decided to recast Edward Norton in the role of Bruce Banner/The Incredible Hulk, it has been on fans mind how Norton took the news. Norton issued a statement to his fans regarding it where he was proud to have acted in the role and that 'The Hulk is bigger then all of us'. You got that right, Ed.

But what fans have maybe wondered even more is: How does Edward Norton feel about the man who is set to take the role from him, Mark Ruffalo?

According to Mark Ruffalo, Norton is 'cool' with it and goes on to say: “We feel like it’s (Hulk) our generation’s “Hamlet” and we’re all going to get a crack of it.”

Well thats good that Mark Ruffalo has Edward Norton's blessing, that is better then going into the role with bad blood going on between you and its predecessor.

I just hope that Hulk stops getting dragged through the mud with all the re-boot recasts. Banna and Norton were both good Banners and I'm sure Ruffalo will be to. JUST STICK WTIH ONE BANNER ALREADY!!!

I don't really care if Norton is cool with it or not. What would even make someone think there would be bad blood between Ruffalo and Norton? It's not Ruffalo's fault he got the part because Norton was an egomaniac and difficult to work with.

Norton for me. Norton for Banner!
Let Ruffles go back to date-chick-flicks.

P.S., anyone else of the notion if Leterier was directing The Avengers, Norton would definitely be back?

How about I don't give two shits about Banner, just have some random guy get pissed off, turn into the Hulk and let him smash his way across the movie. 10 min tops screen time for Banner.
