While Mark Ruffalo is now a bonafide veteran in Hollywood, there was a time when he struggled to gain fame as an actor. Ruffalo’s journey into acting began unexpectedly during his twelfth-grade year when he walked through the theatre department at his Virginia Beach high school.
His family had relocated from Kenosha, Wisconsin, where he was enrolled in a Catholic school. Dealing with undiagnosed dyslexia, his classmates used to laugh at him as he struggled to read aloud.

One Piece: 4 Possible Additions to Luffy’s Straw Hat Pirates Includes 1 Fan-Favorite Marine (Theory)
When Monkey D. Luffy set out to find the One Piece, he wanted to have ten members on his crew. Along his journey, he found several allies and many of them boarded his ship. Due to his signature Straw Hat, they came to be known as the Straw Hat Pirates. The latest one to join his crew was the former Warlord Jinbei, who joined them before the raid on Onigashima.
Jinbei is the ninth member of the Straw Hat Pirates. So, there is still one member missing from Yonko Luffy’s crew. There have been several characters who came close to joining them but could not due to personal reasons. One Piece has entered its Final Saga, and it might not be long before they find the tenth member. Fans believe four characters have the best possible chance of joining them.

The battle at Egghead Island is coming to its climax with Monkey D. Luffy battling Admiral Kizaru and Saint Jaygarcia Saturn, Roronoa Zoro taking on Rob Lucci, and Vinsmoke Sanji rescuing Dr. Vegapunk. But, among the three World Government representatives, the fans believe that there is an imposter who is an ally to the Straw Hat Pirates.
The character is none other than the Pika Pika no Mi user, Borsalino, popularly known as Kizaru. It has been shown that he bonded with Vegapunk and Bartholomew Kuma in the past. This gave them a solid ground for this fan theory. Moreover, several other incidents prove him to be an ally to the Straw Hats pirates.

It’s truly a wonder how Robert Downey Jr. is able to pull off every role he steps into with such ease and charisma that never seems to take the backseat. Whether it is saving the world from other-worldly threats in the Marvel Cinematic Universe or solving mysteries as Sherlock Holmes, there is nothing Robert Downey Jr. cannot do.
Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man
His most recent work as Lewis Strauss in Oppenheimer brought the film industry to its knees and forced the Academy Awards to give him a well-deserved Oscar nomination. If Robert Downey Jr. manages to win the award, which we have a feeling he will, this would be his very first Oscar. However, none of this would’ve been possible without filmmaker Christopher Nolan and Robert Downey Jr. wholeheartedly agrees.
Suggested“I helped them understand how great he was for the role”: Real Reason Marvel Hated Robert Downey Jr.

The 1990s were an exciting period for action films, with many of them getting released direct-to-video and showing up seemingly randomly at local video stores, requiring fans of the genre to have memberships at multiple locations to get to see everything. There was so much that if attention wasn’t paid, titles would be missed easily or rented twice under different titles at different video stores. Stars emerged within those ranks and gathered the love and adoration of fans. Here are the 10 of the best Dtv action stars of that era:
Dolph Lundgren
Let’s start with the obvious man on the list, the one that everyone saw films from at their local video stores. Lundgren had films that were released in theaters, on video, and direct to cable in some cases during the 1990s, but one thing is for sure, he was a mainstay of the action film aisle...

Like "John Wick," it is kind of baffling to think of how far the "Fast & Furious" franchise has come since its humble origins. We've gone from a simple story that sort of emulated "Point Break" but with car racers and a dude who steals VCRs, to a blockbuster juggernaut that is basically the only rival for "Mission: Impossible" in terms of cast, stunts, and globe-spanning locations.
Regardless of what you think of Vin Diesel, his comparison of "Fast and Furious" to J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium is not that far-fetched. Sure, Tolkien did write thousands of years' worth of history, complex lore, religions, and entire languages, but Dominic Toretto's got family. Surprise character connections are becoming increasingly more important to these movies, which have long since abandoned conventional Hollywood blockbuster narratives in favor of doing a telenovela on the big screen. Everyone's got a secret sibling or relative that appears only to avenge their death,...
