Is Marvel’s Avengers In Financial Trouble Already?

Here’s an interesting rumor: Bleeding Cool is reporting that Marvel Studios – known for locking actors into multiple-movie-deals at cut-rate prices, as well as being unafraid to recast roles (Iron Man‘s James Rhodes, Hulk‘s Bruce Banner) whenever they feel the need – has set the budget for 2012′s The Avengers surprisingly low.
