With the April 26 (really, the night of April 25) release date for Avengers: Endgame rapidly approaching, this month will be a mad-dash for everyone involved in Marvel's hallmark franchise, particularly the 'Original Six' Avengers. That, of course, refers to the six heroes who led the charge in 2012's The Avengers: Robert Downey, Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth, Jeremy Renner, and Mark Ruffalo.

While it's probably tough sometimes to relate directly with Ruffalo's Dr. Bruce Banner, a brilliant scientist who occasionally transforms into a giant green evil-fighting beast, it's definitely a lot easier to see eye-to-eye with the certain beast of a schedule that sits on Ruffalo's plate. Anyone can sympathize with the feeling of needing to take a minute to just take a deep breath and give your dog, cat, mouse, or even pot bellied pig a few pets or even a hug before hunkering down and getting back to business.

Ruffalo is one of the most open celebrities in the industry on Instagram, always willing to join in on funny trends or share fan content . It's nice to see that sometimes even the Hulk chills out by spending time with a furry little friend.
