Iron Man/Hulk Film Crossover Announced
William Hurt reveals key crossover scene in upcoming 'Incredible Hulk' film.
Marvel Studios appears to be sowing the seeds for an Avengers film with the latest news regarding this summer's Incredible Hulk. William Hurt, who portrays General Thaddeus Ross in the film, revealed to MTV that his character will appear in a scene with Iron Man, played by Robert Downey Jr.
Hurt went on to discuss a few other key scenes in the film - including some that the more spoiler-conscious might want to avoid.
"I don't know how it'll work," Hurt admitted, saying it was a thrill to appear as General Thaddeus Ross during Downey's scene. "I know it's weird [to work with a character from another movie], and to know it's a device. We did something; I don't know what that's going to be like [to watch]."

I wonder if DC is a little disappointed at not putting Bruce Wayne and/or Batman in Superman Returns. I also wonder if we might see Clark Kent and/or Superman make a cameo in The Dark Knight. It'd make sense with the now-delayed JLA movie.

It wouldn't be DC's decision -- it would be Warner Bros'. Of course, DC is part of the WB operation (which, in turn, is part of Time Warner). But the different projects each have their own producers and their own production companies and their own commitments and deals, so actually doing a crossover might pose political and technical problems that could crush coal into diamonds. A shared movie, a World's Finest type movie, could be easier to do if everybody signed off and negotiated their piece of the new pie.
Assuming the studios ever decide to treat the writers like human beings.

I see where I erred, in saying DC instead of WB, my mistake. But the WB has, some would say, too much influence in what happens or doesn't happen in the comics, unfortunately.
As for the writers, sadly, I doubt that'll ever be the case.
