Get ready for a wild tale from the set of the magical heist franchise!
Mark Ruffalo, the Hulk himself, recently shared a story on Woody Harrelson's podcast that will make you see these actors in a whole new light. While filming the first Now You See Me movie in New Orleans, Ruffalo and Harrelson found themselves in the middle of a bar fight! But here's the twist: Ruffalo claims he saved Harrelson from a potential disaster.
During the podcast, Ruffalo paints a vivid picture of the chaotic filming. They were shooting in the heart of the city, with the camera capturing the action from a distance. As they filmed, the crew would find themselves drawn into bars mid-scene, creating an intense and unpredictable atmosphere. In one such instance, a female fan approached Harrelson, expressing her admiration. But then, a man aggressively pushed her aside and shoved Harrelson. Ruffalo's instincts kicked in, and he sprang into action.
Ruffalo reveals his thought process, acknowledging that while he and Harrelson could handle themselves in a fight, the same might not be true for the rest of the crew. He knew that intervening was the right call, but he also understood the potential consequences. And that's where the story takes an unexpected turn.
As the situation escalated, Ruffalo grabbed Harrelson and pulled him out of the fray, preventing a potential disaster. It's a testament to the bond between these two actors, who have shared the screen in the Now You See Me franchise. And this isn't the only surprise in store for fans.
The upcoming Now You See Me: Now You Don't promises to be a thrilling addition to the series, bringing back the beloved Four Horsemen (including Ruffalo and Harrelson) and introducing a new generation of illusionists. But the question remains: How will this new team of magicians fare against the cunning Veronika Vanderberg, and will their magic be enough to overcome her powerful connections?
The film, directed by Ruben Fleischer, is set to captivate audiences with its signature blend of magic, heists, and unexpected twists. And who knows, it might just spark a debate about the best way to handle barroom brawls! What would you have done in Ruffalo's shoes?
