Mark Ruffalo wants to make sure that every kid, boys and girls, has a chance to play with their favorite superhero from "Avengers: Age of Ultron". He calls Marvel out when he seems to have hard time finding merchandise of a certain favorite female character.
The actor who plays Bruce Banner or Hulk in Marvel Cinematic Universe took the issue to Twitter. He urged the company to fix the problem as he wrote, "@marvel we need more #BlackWidow merchandise for my daughters and nieces. Pretty please."
Ruffalo quickly got support from many of his 1.51 million followers. "Also, ANY merchandise with Scarlet Witch on it would be GREEEAAAAATTTT," one replied. Another chimed in, "I'm with you mark. I have 2 girls who love Avengers. don't want them thinking they are only boys!"
There is also a fan who added to the actor's plea, "Don't forget the sons and nephews. Female heroes should be their favorites too." Other agreed that they were just "for everyone in general. The appeal of Black Widow isn't limited to girls."
Black Widow is played by Scarlett Johansson and Scarlet Witch is portrayed by Elizabeth Olsen on the big screen. They join Hulk, Captain America (Chris Evans), Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), and Quicksilver (Aaron Johnson) in the new movie.
