THE DARK KNIGHT RISES
Anne Hathaway is Catwoman, replacing Michelle Pfeiffer who played the role in 2004.
SPIDER-MAN
Andrew Garfield replaces Tobey Maguire (2002).
THE BOURNE LEGACY
Jeremy Renner takes the franchise reins from Matt Damon (2002).
THE AVENGERS
Mark Ruffalo is the new Hulk, replacing Ed Norton (2008's "Incredible Hulk") and Eric Bana ("The Hulk" 2003). Third time's a charm?
SPARKLE
