Hollywood star Edward Norton has launched a attack on the media and is stating reporters have "distorted" stories to sensationalize a rift between himself and the studio behind his upcoming film The Incredible Hulk. The actor was allegedly caught in a series of aggressive outbursts towards the financiers of the film, Marvel Entertainment over a disagreement about the movie’s final cut. According to reports, Norton didn’t agree with Marvel’s plans to re-shape the film into a series of action scenes, which led to rampant rumors he had strongly pitted himself against the powerful studio. But the star refutes the rumors, stating such "disputes" were part of a "healthy" movie making creative process, and blames the media for "distorting" the truth in hope of securing a "good story". He says, "Every good movie gets forged through collaboration, and different ideas among people who are all committed and respect the validity of each other’s opinions is the heart of film making."Regrettably, our healthy process, which is and should be a private matter, was misrepresented publicly as a ‘dispute’, seized on by people looking for a good story and has been distorted to such a degree that it risks distracting from the film itself, which Marvel, Universal and I refuse to let happen." And the film’s director Louis Leterrier agrees with Norton’s claims, insisting it was the media’s take on the rift which prevented a final agreement being stalled between the two battling parties. He explains, ‘’Everyone was exhausted; it was like a little burst. (Then it) became public, (which) kept Edward and Marvel from talking to each other. (The purported feud) was nothing and then it became something big."Editors Note: You are lucky we are even talking about anything you do. Things go wrong, blame the media !
