Willem Dafoe is interviewed in the middle of the street… by a tiktoker who completely ignores who he is

Since it was posted three days ago, this video has gone viral. The tiktoker @Hikhann_ stops a man in the street to compliment him on his clothing style and innocently asks him what he does for a living. The passer-by continues on his way and simply responds “I am an actor”. The conversation continues as if nothing had happened while the whole world shouts behind their screen: “But man, it’s Willem Dafoe!!!”.

The actor and his 45-year career in cinema, currently showing in Nosferatuplayed for the greatest: Tim Burton, Yórgos Lánthimos, Guillermo del Toro, Abel Ferrara, Wes Anderson, Lars von Trier… In the comments, there is hilarity, and dismay:

“Is he pretending not to recognize him to annoy us?”

“THE GREEN GOLF! How do you not recognize him? Have you ever seen Spider-Man? WTF!”

“It’s quite rude to ask him for an interview without knowing who he is.”

“It was quite painful to watch.”
