Earlier this year, Garner and Ruffalo celebrated the 16th anniversary of 13 Going On 30 — a beloved film that’s still aired on cable television today. In April, Ruffalo took to Twitter with a throwback photo of the on-screen couple in the 2004 film.
“Happy Anniversary to 13 Going on 30 today!” he wrote alongside a snap of the final scene from the film, which shows his and Garner’s characters eating Razzles candy (a staple in the movie). “Remember what the world was like when Razzles were all the rage? Missing that time,” Ruffalo continued, while reminiscing on simpler times.
Last year, for the 15th anniversary of 13 Going on 30, Jennifer shut down rumors of a sequel. “What, like 15 Going on 50,” she joked during an appearance on Good Morning America, adding, “Let’s simmer down.”
