Marvel Considered Bringing Back Edward Norton for the SHE-HULK Finale

Marvel’s She-Hulk series had a really fun first season, ending with the character of Jennifer Walters not only breaking the fourth wall, but marching into Marvel studios on the Disney lot and demanding her time with the big guy. It had a lot of fun plot twists, but it turns out there was one the studio held back.

In a recent interview with The Direct, She-Hulk director Kat Coiro revealed Marvel considered bringing back The Incredible Hulk's Edward Norton to play Bruce Banner once again in the finale.

Discussing any ideas that were considered for Hulk's long-awaited reunion with Abomination, Coiro confirmed that she and Marvel Studios did "entertain the idea" of swapping out Mark Ruffalo for Norton for that scene, as when they last met Banner was played by a different actor:

“There was a lot of talk about the fact that the last time they were together a different actor was playing the Hulk. And Mark [Ruffalo] made quite a few jokes about that. And we did entertain the idea of swapping Mark out for Edward Norton. But that did not come to pass.”

I think it would have been really fun to have seen Norton return if they had a way to make it work. As it turned out, the finale was really good, and I hope the series returns. What about you? Did you enjoy She-Hulk? Would you like to see a Season 2?
