Disney released an in depth interview with Joss Whedon and Mark Ruffalo about the difficulties bringing the Hulk to the big screen. Here's a taste from Ruffalo.
In a lot of the other versions of the character, The Hulk grew in size drastically, but in 'The Avengers' he is always going to be about eight and a half feet tall. He gets stronger as he gets angrier, but he doesn't really grow much taller. When I found out there was a whole new arena of technology that would allow an actor to play what has always been a CGI character, I thought it could be something cool to try my hand at. It's a game changer for The Hulk because it's hard to capture real anger in a CGI character. Anger is something that's deep and primordial. There are so many subtleties and variations to it, so this idea of bringing a darker, more humanistic Hulk was really exciting and compelling.
