Looking at his history with ‘American History X’ and ‘The Italian Job’, we know Edward Norton isn’t the easiest guy to work with. But still, director of ‘The Incredible Hulk’ Louis Leterrier says the recent feud between Norton and Marvel didn’t exist until the press broke the ‘news’.

“The press is what kept Edward and Marvel from talking to each other. It was nothing, but then it became something big,” Leterrier says. In the end, Entertainment Weekly didn’t get the interview with Edward Norton about the new Hulk movie. But they did get a statement from him saying “every good movie gets forged through collaboration” and “our healthy process, which is and should be a private matter, was misrepresented publicly as a dispute.”

Marvel, Universal and Norton would now rather let the movie speak for itself. Em, what was the movie again?

20th Century Fox finally signed off on ‘I Want To Believe’, the new title of the X-files movie. Slated for release July 25, the movie comes six years after the series finale. One of the reasons why the story is both written for the fans, but also for newcomers.

“It has struck me over the last several years talking to college-age kids that a lot of them really don’t know the show or haven’t seen it. If you’re 20 years old now, the show started when you were 4. It was probably too scary for you or your parents wouldn’t let you watch it. So there’s a whole new audience that might have liked the show. This was made to, I would call it, satisfy everyone,” Chris Carter, the show’s creator, told The Associated Press.
