Mark Ruffalo received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Thursday afternoon, and it looked like one of the most fun things to happen in Los Angeles in a long time.
The actor was joined by his wife Sunrise Coigney and two of their three children, in addition to friends and former costars including Barry Keoghan and Jennifer Garner, who moved her pal to tears with her touching speech. The icing on the cake: the two reenacted their "Thriller" dance from the hit film 13 Going on 30.
Here, a taste of the excitement from Ruffalo's Walk of Fame Star Ceremony on Thursday.
