Mark Ruffalo's absence in 'Now You See Me 3' explained

Mark Ruffalo fans have been trying to figure out the absence of the actor ever since the trailer of Now You See Me 3 released. The makers dropped multiple trailers and even dropped a featurette, but neither of them had Ruffalo’s presence in them. Ruben Fleischer, in a latest interview, disclosed why the Avengers actor had been absent from all the trailers. There is a brief appearance made by the 57-year-old actor in the new sequel. Director Ruben explained the reason behind his small role and also updated about his long screen time in the fourth sequel. The Venom director hopes to see Mark more in the next sequel. He explained Variety, “The biggest challenge with Mark is his schedule. He’s a very busy guy, and so he was only able to be in the film because we did some reshoots this summer.” “He wasn’t originally available over the course of principal photography. He actually wasn’t even available during our reshoots, but I was lucky to catch him for a day in New York, and we shot him against a green screen”, unveiled the 51-year-old director. “That’s why he’s a hologram, as opposed to entering into the scene.” The filmmaker said that “We took what we could get.” Now You See Me 4 is already in development with Fleischer returning to direct the film.
