Edward Norton was fired from the latests Avengers film. Edward Norton is considered by industry strandards as a pretty solid actor with list of successful credentials — not to mention 2 Academy Awards — to his name. Well, the president of Marvel studios, Kevin Feige, had some scathing things to say about Norton in a press release.

Feige basically publicly brow-beated the actor for being difficult and (dare we say) not a talented enough actor to keep up with the likes of Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans (riiiiight).
“Our decision is definitely not one based on monetary factors, but instead rooted in the need for an actor who embodies the creativity and collaborative spirit of our other talented cast members. The Avengers demands players who thrive working as part of an ensemble, as evidenced by Robert, Chris H., Chris E., Sam, Scarlett, and all of our talented casts. We are looking to announce a name actor who fulfills these requirements, and is passionate about the iconic role in the coming weeks.”
Edward Norton‘s rep shrugged off the statement saying it was mean-spirited and dishonest, holding firm to that the reason Norton wasn’t invited back was because the studio couldn’t afford him
