As a reborn human being, the biggest difference between Zhou Fangyuan and others is that he knows a lot of things that will happen in the future.

Marvel and Disney have concerns about the cinematic universe, so they used two different ways to shoot "Iron Man" and "Hulk", respectively, in order to be safe.

After all, no one can guarantee which one will be more recognized by the audience, so they need more preparation. But Zhou Fangyuan is far from it, he is very aware of the success of the "Iron Man" series, the success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the failure of "The Incredible Hulk", so from the beginning, he avoided the ending that could have failed with a very tough attitude.

"Hulk" directly adopted Marvel's routine, filmed in the way Marvel likes, and used actors with no fame and low remuneration to be the protagonists, so under the recommendation of Zhou Fangyuan, Mark Ruffalo was directly locked.

Mark Ruffalo, born in Kenosha, Wisconsin, spent most of his childhood in Virginia Beach, Virginia. When he was young, he had undiagnosed dyslexia and hyperactivity disorder, but he worked hard to overcome it, and this alone is very admirable. When he was in high school, he also often participated in wrestling competitions, and his physical fitness can be said to be quite good. After graduating from high school, he attended the Stella Adler Conservatory, then went to Los Angeles to take acting classes, and opened a zero-budget theater company with a group of friends, subsidizing his rent by working as a gardener and painter.

Unfortunately, his early experience was not spectacular.

Mark Ruffalo participated in about 800 auditions, but failed a single one. In addition, he worked as a bartender for almost a decade to make a living.

Until the age of 24, Mark Ruffalo, who still did not improve in his work, gave up acting and returned to his hometown to do business with his father. He just wanted a stable job to settle down in his hometown, but his mother wanted him to return to Los Angeles and pursue his dreams. In the end, he returned to Los Angeles and, in the most difficult times, even lived in a converted garage.

Fortunately, the hardships of life did not really defeat him, in 1992, 25-year-old Mark finally participated in his first short film "Rough Trade", and in the same year, he shot an advertisement for a skin care product. In this way, two years later, until 1994, at the age of 27, he finally starred in his first film "Forbidden Magic Mirror 2: Black Dance", in September, the comedy film "Youth" starring Demont Moroni was released, and in December, he participated in the adventure drama "Due South" starring Paul Haggis.

In 1995, Mark was 28 years old, and he co-starred with Billy Drago in the horror movie "Forbidden Mirror 3". The following year, he starred in the horror movie "The Devil's Dentist" directed by Brian Yozner. After that, he starred in "The Day After Christmas" in '97, the Off-Broadway drama "This Is Our Youth" in '98, and the war film "Riding with the Devil" directed by Ann Lee in '99.

To be precise, at about this time, his career finally had a hint of rise.

After all, compared to the 800 interviews that he didn't get in the past, he now at least has a relatively stable opportunity to act, and occasionally he can get some good roles.

In 2000, his partner Laura Linney starred in the family film "You Can Trust Me", playing the impetuous and unruly Terry, which was the first small climax of Mark's career, for which he won the 26th Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award for Best Newcomer;

In the past few years, he co-starred with Robert Redford and James Gandolfini in the action movie "Confrontation Storm". In 2002, he starred in the romance movie "True Love Chromosome", and in the same year, he also starred in the action war film "Wind Whisperer" directed by Woosen Wu.

Since then, Mark has had movies to star in almost every year, especially after joining the Avengers, which has opened a new chapter in his career.

And more importantly, he was not restricted from acting because he played the Hulk, on the contrary, compared with other superhero actors, his acting path is much broader, and after 2010, he has been frequently nominated for various awards and even won awards directly.

Marc Ruffalo, who is of Italian descent, has a unique temperament in his own right. Because of his slight resemblance to Marlon Brando, he has been called "Granny Brando" by some critics. Mark Ruffalo has contributed a variety of screen images to the audience. In "The Children Are All Good", he gives the audience the feeling of a man next door with a more relatable performance, an American-style optimistic image. In "The Avengers", he takes a more mature and humane perspective to figure out the psychology of the Hulk. It can be said that Mark Ruffalo's version of the Hulk vividly shows the inner drama of self-struggle and the invincible domineering leakage, but without the slightest bitterness and entanglement. And in "Fox Hunter", Mark Ruffalo gave a near-perfect performance, accurately interpreting the freedom and excellence of his role, and the courage to stand up for the people he loves.

Although most of the big-screen characters played by Mark Ruffalo are calm or "bitter and hateful", he is very good at showing his sense of humor in life.

For example, when he was filming the Avengers movie, his mobile phone was often confiscated by the crew.

In his previous life, he posted more than once on social networking sites begging Marvel to return his mobile phone, and said that he was wrong, but he was also "taught" by Marvel's reply, saying that he "shouldn't have" a mobile phone.

Fans who are familiar with Uncle Mark speculate that he must have used his mobile phone to "leak" something. Spoilers are the favorite things of "Hulk" Mark in those years, and he has become a "love and hate" member of the Avengers. Once his mobile phone was confiscated because Marvel called all the Avengers members together to take pictures, and as a result, he couldn't help but start a live online broadcast on the spot, and he was very happy with the "Groot Baby" Vin Diesel behind him. As a result, the "director" next to him immediately warned him about what plane he was working on when he found out, and the other companions also reminded him that this was a secret, which made the Hulk immediately stop the live broadcast in embarrassment.

However, he later sent out some live videos of other "Avengers" members, Black Widow, Team America, and Iron Man all gave Hulk face, grimacing at the camera, smiling and waving, and Iron Man also sent a flying kiss. Seeing that he is always so embarrassed, always unruly, and finally confiscated his mobile phone by Marvel, he really "deserves it".

Those who are familiar with Mark know that he is basically a "spoiler habitual offender", and he is always the first big mouth in the main creator of various Avengers-related plots. Moreover, when he was promoting "Amazing Thieves 2", he first leaked the relevant details of "Thor 3", saying that "Thor 3" is a cosmic road movie, a space adventure between Hulk and Thor, and also said that the villain Goddess Hela played by Cate Blanchett is a big demon, and Hulk and Thor will be threatened by their lives.

And not only that, Mark Ruffalo was also blacklisted by the United States as a terrorist because he organized the screening of a documentary about natural gas drilling, "The Land of Natural Gas", to call for an end to the extraction of natural gas and awaken the public's awareness. This has attracted the attention of the Office of Homeland Security.

If he takes a plane, he will be the focus of care, and he will be subject to stricter inspection by officials of the Transportation Security Administration. He disagrees with the fact that he has been labeled a security threat by the US government, but on the contrary finds it very interesting.

It is estimated that most people have been in his forties since they first met Mark.

He can't be blamed for this, like Morgan Freeman, Mark is indeed a late bloomer.

Mark once recalled that for a while, he couldn't even eat, and he had to rely on the 20 US dollars sent by his grandmother every week to buy food to fill his stomach. During that time, he worked a lot of odd jobs to make ends meet, and at the same time auditioned everywhere, much like the experience of Sister Stone in "La La Land". But at that time, there was no shortage of people in Los Angeles who had movie dreams like him.

And he was still very sad, when he saw that his career was just improving, he was diagnosed with a brain tumor. This made him unable to make any facial expressions for a period of time, but fortunately he was later found to be benign.

After recovering from his illness, he began to work with some well-known directors and big-name actors. For example, the previously mentioned "Wind Whisperer", such as "Warm Inside the Light" starring Jim Carrey and Kate Wyn Slater, and "The King's Team" starring Sean Penn, Jude Lowe and Kate Winslet.

It can be said that between 2000 and 2010, Mark gained a firm foothold in Hollywood step by step. is also because of the diverse roles, and has honed quite mature acting skills.

In 2010, it can be called an important node in his acting career, after cooperating with Xiao Lizi in "Shutter Island", he was finally well-known by more audiences, and was nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for the first time with "The Children Are Fine". Moreover, his directorial debut film "Sitting on Mercy" also won the Special Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.

This year, he not only won the recognition of the audience, but also the recognition of the academy, and also let people see his creative talent outside of performance. Of course, what really made Mark a hot first-line actor is still thanks to the role of the Hulk in "The Avengers" two years later. Speaking of which, I have to thank his good friend Robert Downey Jr., who brought Mark into the world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The two became friends because of their role in David Fincher's "Zodiac". Mark also said that "Zodiac" is his favorite movie in his career.

In the same year, he acted in the biographical film "Fox Hunter", although it was publicly boycotted by the prototype character, but Mark still won the second Oscar nomination of his career with his outstanding performance.

After a year, he starred in the film "Spotlight", which exposed the sexual abuse of children by a Catholic priest, and won the Oscar for Best Picture. This film has not only become a textbook for news media topics, but also has extraordinary social significance. In the United States, where Catholicism is the main faith, the truth it has revealed has questioned the entire church system. The Oscar finally upset and awarded it Best Picture, and it was also very courageous. Among all the movies starring Mark, the highest ranking may still be the musical movie "Meet You in New York Again".

Although Mark is becoming more and more favored by Hollywood, there are more and more commercial blockbusters waiting for him, such as "Avengers 3", "Avengers 4", "Amazing Rogue 3", ......

But he never gave up on independent films.

All in all, this person, a late bloomer, a gentle personality, excellent acting skills, is a very good partner.

When Zhou Fangyuan originally decided to use him, Marvel and Disney were still reluctant, but Zhou Fangyuan didn't care about them, especially after he acquired MGM now, plus he has been constantly buying Disney's shares from other aspects, and now Zhou Fangyuan's voice within Disney is getting more and more important, just one casting, whether it is Disney or Marvel, is unwilling to work against Zhou Fangyuan.

Now that the filming of "Hulk" has been completed and will be released soon, Zhou Fangyuan's visit to the United States this time also means to give Mark a platform, after all, he is the actor he selected, although the original time and space Mark has achieved great success, but to be honest, the new "Hulk" movie is also a gamble for Zhou Fangyuan. The plot has changed, the characters have changed, and even the shooting techniques and directors have changed, and no one can say whether today's "Hulk" can really be a success.

And these are basically advocated by Zhou Fangyuan himself, so it is absolutely impossible for him to let Mark bear the relevant responsibilities and pressures himself, to stand on the platform, to support the other party, which is reasonable. And from the end of the casting to the next few contacts, the two are now friends, and Zhou Fangyuan also feels very close to this gentle uncle.

……

At Los Angeles International Airport, private jets are slowly landing.

Zhou Fangyuan, accompanied by his assistant and airport personnel, left the airport through the VIP channel.

As soon as he got out of the main gate of the airport, Zhou Fangyuan didn't have time to ask the assistant to call the car over, and a car in the distance had already flashed its lights a few times, attracting Zhou Fangyuan's attention.

He stared intently, who was not Mark?

"Hi man, welcome back!"

Mark opened the car door and stepped down.

He is now in Hollywood, although he has begun to gain a firm foothold, but his fame is still not very big, and he can't compare with popular actors and stars. Of course, if you don't dress up at all, it's normal to be recognized, but as long as you wear a little sunglasses or something, you can basically put an end to similar situations.

I opened the door and got out of the car, walked over, and a big hug followed.

"How did you know I was coming over now?"

"Of course, it's because I have internal connections!"

Mark said proudly.

Don't look at his reputation in Hollywood, but because of his personality, his popularity has always been good, and he knows a lot of friends in society.

Zhou Fangyuan had chatted with him before he got on the plane, so by taking advantage of this, he must have asked the airport insiders to miss the flight time, even if it is a private jet, there is also a fixed flight route and flight time, so waiting outside the airport on time is really not a difficult thing for him.
