Mark Ruffalo could enter politics

Mark told Us Weekly: "It isn't on my game card right now, but who knows. I mean, you never say never.

"I mean, I spent a lot of time in that world, and acting - it's for the people. So, I love the people, and politicians could be doing something good for the people."

The actor - known for playing Marvel superhero, The Hulk - went on to laud New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, 34, who ran as a Democratic Socialist and made history during his swearing-in ceremony on January 1 when he became the first prominent US politician to take the oath on a Quran.

Mark said: "Seeing Mamdani's win in New York has really excited me about what's possible in the United States right now."

The Avengers star - who has been a fierce critic of 79-year-old US President Donald Trump - believes the country needs a new political direction that serves working people, as the Democratic and Republican parties have "become completely captured by corporations".

Mark said: "It's bulls***. And the people in America are suffering. If the people in America weren't suffering, we wouldn't be where we are right now.

"You know, it's a failure on both parties. They become completely captured by corporations, both parties. And it's time for a new America that is for the working people who were the plurality of this country."

In October 2020, the Mickey 17 cast member accused Trump of being a "liar" following the final US Presidential debate with his Democrat rival, 83 year old Joe Biden - who was elected Commander-in-Chief that year - and for trying to mislead the US public.

Mark wrote on Twitter - now called X: "Trump is a liar, Biden is an honorable man who raised his boys on his own after his wife was killed in a car accident. (sic)"

Later, the Task star added: "I want to live in a country where we have a President who isn't a colossal liar. #WithBidenWeCan (sic)."
