Actor Mark Ruffalo is something of an everyman star. He's not used to being recognized for his roles — especially by kids. But his turn in The Avengers changed that forever when he stepped into the purple pants of Dr. Bruce Banner, and his alter ego, the Hulk.
Have you ever wondered if it would be cool to have the Hulk as your dad? You're about to find out.
Recently, when Ruffalo was visiting his daughter at preschool, a friend of hers was awestruck at the sight of him. After the shock wore off, the little Avengers fan asked Ruffalo if he was the Hulk. His answer, as retold to Jimmy Fallon on last night's edition of The Tonight Show, was priceless.
Just watch.
There's a moral to this story, kids: Don't ask a question you don't really want the answer to.
Mark Ruffalo reprises his role as Bruce Banner/the Hulk in Avengers: Age of Ultron, opening May 1, 2015.
