In a move straight out of a Minecraft side quest, Jack Black shocked fans at a random screening of A Minecraft Movie by pulling off one of the most wholesome celebrity stunts in recent memory.

Disguised with a covered face and altered voice, Black stepped in front of an unsuspecting audience to deliver a special PSA—urging moviegoers not to throw popcorn during the film, poking fun and addressing at the viral "chicken jockey" trend that’s been causing chaos in theaters.

The crowd initially had no idea it was him.

But as soon as he dramatically revealed himself, the cinema exploded into cheers. Kids screamed, parents gasped, and a wave of smartphones instantly went up to capture the once-in-a-lifetime moment.
