The Incredible Hulk star William Hurt has confirmed rumours that his character also appears in Iron Man.

The actor said there were crossover scenes in the two films, both of which are based on Marvel Comics creations.

Hurt, who plays General Thaddeus Ross in the Hulk movie, told MTV that he pops up alongside Robert Downey Jr in Iron Man.

He said: "It's a funky scene. I don't know how it will work... I know it's weird and to know it's a device. We did something. I don't know what that's going to be like [to watch]."

Both characters were part of superhero team the Avengers, and there have been rumours of a possible crossover since it was revealed that the movies were being shot at the same time.

TV Hulk Lou Ferigno will make a cameo appearance in the latest big-screen adaptation, which stars Ed Norton in the title role.

It is scheduled to hit UK cinemas in June, a month later than Iron Man.
