That's What The Iron Man Writers Want
It makes sense. Who else could take on a team of superheroes? If it wasn't the Hulk, you'd need a team of villains to stand up to the Avengers. With so many characters on scree, adding a bunch of villains might be too much. Hulk is already established as a force of destruction. He's fought the team so many times in the comics, why not include such a battle on the big screen? It's what we'd love to see.
Iron Man writer, Mark Fergus said this to MTV News:
“I left the door open for whoever’s going to direct ‘The Avengers’ with our last shot. Edward [Norton] and I, we consciously decided to make the last shot of the movie when he opens his eyes and he smirks at the camera,” Leterrier told us. “Is he enjoying it? Is he malicious? That’s what’s great about Edward. You don’t know if he’s a good guy or bad guy. He’s always on this edge and we’ve been sort of surfing that edge, that very thin edge during the entire movie.”
It could be epic. The heroes might get too cocky when they join together. They could see themselves as unstoppable. The Hulk could be just the one to let them know how it really is.
