|October 28, 2025
From superhero to morally complex lawman, the Hollywood star opens up about the limited series, his co-stars, and the deeper themes of parenthood and human connection
Mark Ruffalo is no stranger to complex, layered characters — from the morally conflicted journalist in Spotlight to the troubled father in The Kids Are All Right, and of course, the genius scientist Bruce Banner in the Avengers franchise.
But in TASK, HBO's latest gripping limited series, he steps into far more grounded territory — a law enforcement officer navigating guilt, loyalty, and the moral ambiguities of faith. Speaking at a virtual press conference, Ruffalo offered a rare glimpse into his process, his ensemble cast, and the challenges of inhabiting such a character.
