Norton is the issue. The Hulk himself is CGI. I don't have my Avengers #1 handy but Banner might not even be in it. As far as Ultimates go, other than maybe some tinkering with Cap and the casting of Jackson as Fury (instead of, say Kris Kriistofferson or Tommy Lee Jones of 20 years ago.) it seems the overarching theme here is Military Super Soldier stuff. And that's a good thing. I'm betting Josh Harnett or Paul Walker for Cap...unless they go with a complete unknown. Speaking of Kristofferson:Alas, he's too old now. But it would be cool if Whistler showed up as a scientist in the lab or Dr. Erskine and old Man Stark. His work with Blade had to be based on some previous bio work somewhere. Whistler probably had a little of the Mathuzalah formula that Fury used coursing through his own blood. Likely synthesized from the blood of a soldier named Logan, collected back in back in his US soldier days. I'm just saying... I’s bet the hedging on the Hulk has to do with Banner, not the Hulk.

From the start of this whole cross over ti was implied that Banner "The Hulk" would be the villain. Watch the end of The Incredible Hulk again. Stark comes to General Ross with a proposition to help, after Ross's pitiful loss of control to his "Hulkbuster" The Abomination. Ross still wants the Hulk. Shield most likely wants Banner in a test lab or a body bag. Also Louis Leterrier, "director of Incredible Hulk" said it would be very cool to have the Hulk as the villain of The Avengers.

But I think they may be doing all that "Ultimate" crap so who knows what origins they are going to use.

Stark was pursuing Ross because he knew how to find Banner. I didn't know it was still a question.
