Mark Ruffalo plays twins in IKnowThisMuchIsTrue, but director Derek Cianfrance shot some of his scenes six weeks apart: “We thought Mark could gain weight easier in those six weeks than he could lose weight”
was already in place to star as Dominick Birdsey and his twin brother, Thomas, when Cianfrance signed on. In fact, Ruffalo, who had the option on the 1998 novel and was also set to serve as an executive producer, was the reason Cianfrance signed on.
The bond the two formed was integral to the level of trust needed on-set because there were many scenes that featured Ruffalo as both brothers — and those sequences were shot six weeks apart. They started with Ruffalo portraying Dominick, in part because “we thought Mark could gain weight easier in those six weeks than he could lose weight,” says Cianfrance.
Also integral to this process was Gabe Fazio, who stood in as Thomas when Ruffalo was playing Dominick and vice versa. Fazio, too, went through the process of gaining and losing weight to match the look and body language of the appropriate character, but his performance was ultimately erased when Ruffalo was composited into the final cut.
Inspired by the scene in “Heat” in which Al Pacino and Robert De Niro sit across from each other in a diner, Cianfrance leaned into a shot-countershot style for scenes that featured the brothers, only showing both of their faces onscreen in the same frame in select, special moments.
