Mark Ruffalo, an actor who has been in many movies, recently shared that the film 13 Going on 30 is the one fans talk to him about the most.
In a recent interview, he explained that people really “fell in love” with this 2004 romantic comedy. He said that he also loves the movie and that it’s the one fans bring up when they meet him.
One of the most memorable scenes from the movie is when Ruffalo’s character, Matt, goes on a late-night run for Razzles candy with Jennifer Garner’s character, Jenna. Ruffalo mentioned that fans often give him Razzles candy when they meet him.
Garner, who played Jenna, also remembers that scene fondly. She called it one of her favorite moments from filming, especially because it was shot in Brooklyn with a view of Manhattan in the background.
Although Ruffalo is known for other famous roles, like playing the Hulk in The Avengers movies, he said that 13 Going on 30 is still the one people talk to him about most. The movie is now 20 years old but remains popular because of its timeless message about love and family.
Ruffalo explained that the movie connects with people because it shows how important love is in everyone’s life, whether it’s the love we give to others or the love we receive from family and friends.
Ruffalo shared these thoughts at a charity event for the Center at West Park, an organization that helps artists and promotes diversity.
He said that the themes of love in 13 Going on 30 are similar to the Center’s mission, which is about caring for others and supporting a community where everyone feels welcome.
Looking ahead, Ruffalo has some exciting projects coming up. He will star in a new movie called Mickey 17, directed by Bong Joon Ho, which will be released in January 2025. He will also appear in Now You See Me 3, set to come out in November 2025.
