Mark Ruffalo Tricked Him

Josh Brolin shared a hilarious behind-the-scenes story about how Mark Ruffalo convinced him to play Thanos after feeling completely embarrassed during motion-capture rehearsals. When Brolin first arrived on set, he felt like a glorified prop, forced to wear a tight gray dots-covered suit with a giant camera rig suspended inches from his face while walking around on cinder blocks. Brolin admitted he was deeply self-conscious and ready to walk away, but he reached out to Ruffalo—who had already spent years playing the Hulk in a mo-cap suit—to ask if the awkwardness ever went away. Ruffalo cracked him up by admitting that the first time on set is totally degrading, but promised him that once he saw the finished CGI on screen, he'd realize it was the coolest thing in the world. Ruffalo told Brolin he would be an absolute fool to turn it down, giving him the exact pep talk he needed to embrace the foam suits and turn the Mad Titan into an iconic villain. Seeing Josh Brolin rely on Mark Ruffalo to survive motion-capture embarrassments and end up creating one of cinema's greatest villains is pure gold. #joshbrolin #markruffalo #thanos #hulk #avengers #mcu #marvel #hollywood #behindthescenes #funny #viral #funnymoments #shorts #comedy #interview #latenight #celebritystories
