Iron Man 2: See the Premiere with Scarlett and No Hulk! Dan Koelsch, September 17, 2009June 6, 2010 Want to go the premiere of Iron Man 2 next year as a guest of Scarlett Johansson? Just pay a handsome sum and you’re in. The actress is an ambassador for the charity group Oxfam America, and they are collaborating to auction off two premiere tickets, which include a meet-and-greet with Ms Johansson herself. The auction is part of a series of auctions by Oxfam and Ebay involving celebrities. All the proceeds benefit the charity organization, which is dedicated to finding lasting solutions to poverty, hunger, and social injustice around the world. Other auctions in the series include winning Scarlett’s signed director’s chair from “He’s Just Not That Into You”, tickets to the London premiere of “A Christmas Carol”, and a lunch date with Food Network chef Giada De Laurentiis. Check out Oxfam’s Ebay Store for dates of auctions and more details. The Iron Man 2 premiere auction starts today, so keep an eye out! In other Iron Man 2 news, Ed Norton has sort of confirmed that the Hulk, or at least Bruce Banner, will not be in Iron Man 2. MTV got a chance to talk to him about the possible role, and this is what he had to say:“I heard that. I don’t know where that’s coming from,” Norton told MTV News. “I am not in ‘Iron Man 2’ to my knowledge.” The “to my knowledge” part is what makes me not think this is 100%. He could have a cameo in reshoots, or he might at least be referenced in the film, since Tony Stark did appear in Norton’s Hulk film. So, what do you think about Norton returning as Hulk in ANY Marvel film, since there’s no word yet on his involvement in Iron Man 2, a Hulk sequel, or the Avengers? And will you pony up the cash to meet Scarlett Johansson? News Iron Man 2Scarlett Johansson

Yeah no to the money thing, and WTF to the hulk thing…. i was hoping for a meet and greet, i guess we will have to wait for the avengers, I personally hope that Bruce Banner and Spiderman will meet up , seeing as Peter Parker is VERY SMART( in the comics anyway) and they will attempt to help each other, (Hulk and Spiderman) and get caught up in the Shield and Iron Man pursuit of The Hulk , although i love Robert Downey Jr. and Tobey Maguire and would hate to have to see one as the Enemy..
Why do we want Norton in the next Hulk. He is a terrible Banner and a par actor at best. Looking the part is only half of the work. He did a terrible job as banner and Marvel would do well to get Bana back or some new guy! Down with the Norton era.
