Joss Whedon and Mark Ruffalo are thick as thieves. They first bonded over a four-hour lunch—and later on wrestling mats—not long after Whedon signed on as director of Marvel's Avengers and Ruffalo agreed to play the Hulk. The film became both a critical success and a blockbuster hit.
"The moment I started writing, I was like, 'Oh my god, this is it. This is my true love. This is why I’m on the planet if there is any reason at all.'"
Sitting together onstage, the banter came easily. "So you started out as a writer…" Ruffalo said, and Whedon jumped in: "I came late to writing. All I knew is that wanted to be an artist—and by that I mean not really work."
Mark laughed, "I did the same thing. Then we bullshitted our way here. And [the Tribeca audience is] actually sitting here listening to us!"
