Various sources, including the Los Angeles Times, are reporting that former DoctorWho actor David Tennant is in talks to play Bruce Banner, aka The Hulk, in The Avengers movie expected out in May 2012.
If the reports are true, Tennant would be joining Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man, Chris Evans as Captain America, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, and Scarlet Johansson as Black Widow.
This rumor about Tennant spread after Marvel Studios announced earlier in the week that Edward Norton, who portrayed the green giant in 2008’s The Incredible Hulk, would not be reprising the role for the upcoming Joss Whedon-directed project. Marvel is expected to officially declare who will play The Hulk this summer at Comic-Con in San Diego.
Is it just me or does the idea of Tennant playing Bruce Banner / The Hulk sound equally as bad as Andrew Garfield playing Peter Parker / Spider-Man? A skinny pale British actor playing a muscular American superhero… a perfect match? I don’t think so!
