There has been a lot of talk lately about how the upcoming Avengers film will be able to incorporate so many characters as well as so many ego’s. With Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and maybe The Hulk, how could anyone possibly begin to bridge all of those styles together?
Kevin Feige, the President of Production over at Marvel Studios, has been handed this impossible task and while sitting down with SFX Magazine, he revealed what characters will ultimately make it into the film.
…its three people, four including Hulk , five including Nick Fury – who you have seen before in other movies, coming together for the very first time.
Hulk? Which Hulk are we going to see? Edward Norton or Eric Bana? Although he doesn’t exactly answer the question with a straight response, we can gather that they are at least going to try and get Norton back.
I think there’s a chance, its certainly our intention to use the same actors from film to film where we can.
SFX Magazine also asked him about how they are going to mesh the mythological-science-driven world of Thor with that of the relatively modern world of Iron Man.
We’re doing the Stan Lee/Jack Kirby/Walt Simonson/J Michael Straczynski Thor. We’re not doing the blow the dust of the old Norse book in your library Thor. And in the Thor of the Marvel universe there’s a race called The Asgardians, and we’re linked through this tree of life that we’re unaware of. Its real science, but we don’t know about it yet. The Thor movie is about teaching people that.
What do you think about all of this Avengers news? Do you think they will be able to pull off the impossible and have all of the cohesively in one film?

This is going to be huge and amazing. Especially if they are (as Iron Man and the Hulk have indicated) chasing down the hulk. It’s going to be tough to fit everything into a cohesive unit and do it justice, but I think that with the right director, they can do it. Everyone that they’ve involved in recent projects has had a true love of the process and material. I’m psyched to see it come together.
