'So much disinformation': Mark Ruffalo blames Elon Musk after actor shares fake images of Trump on Epstein plane

Actor Mark Ruffalo issued an apology to his followers after he shared artificial intelligence-generated photos of former President Donald Trump.

Ruffalo shared a post on the X platform purporting to show two separate photos of Trump flying with several young women to Jeffrey Epstein's infamous island.

"Trump headed to Epstein Island. 2 different flights, 2 different groups of little girls. Not his daughters. Not his nieces. Not something Republicans even care about. He can rape, steal, try to overthrow the gov't, this is their American dream," a user claimed when posting the photos.

Ruffalo, appearing to do no due diligence, shared the images at face value.

"Gross. #MAGA wants to paint everyone on those flights as pedophiles except the one guy who smiles in a group of young girls all headed to Epstein’s “Fantasy Island” with him. My bet is there are some decent republicans left in America that may think this is going too far."

The images were soon hit with an X community note that labeled the images "AI-generated."

Ruffalo issued an apology to followers the next day but deflected the responsibility to X owner Elon Musk. Ruffalo blamed the entrepreneur for "misinformation" on his website despite the label being applied to the post.

"Sorry Folks. Apparently these images are AI fakes. The fact Trump was on Epstein’s plane and what Epstein was up to is not. Be careful. Elon’s X and his allowing so much disinformation here is driving the value of his app down by 55%," Ruffalo wrote, before linking to an article.

The actor recently celebrated a Golden Globe award for the movie "Poor Things," a film distributed by Disney's Searchlight studio that celebrated debauchery and "whoring" as a form of female empowerment.

The film focused on the male characters' inability to control a female Frankenstein as intended. Instead, what was supposed to be an easily manipulated woman develops into what the Hollywood Reporter described as "a fiercely spirited, independent woman."

The film was awarded "Best Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy" at the Golden Globes, despite its poor performance at the box office. The production had a budget of $35 million but took in just $15 million worldwide.
