Jack Black Reacts to Elle Fanning’s Viral Praise in Sony TikTok as Paul Rudd Backs Him

Sony posted his bashful reply on TikTok, a playful beat in the run-up to Anaconda’s Dec. 25 theatrical release.

Overview

  • In a Vanity Fair lie-detector interview, Elle Fanning called Jack Black "the hottest man I've ever seen" and "sex on legs."
  • Black responded in a Sony-shared TikTok by closing his eyes, thanking Fanning, and joking she has "goblin dysmorphia" about his looks.
  • He addressed Fanning’s boyfriend, Gus Wenner, with "Dude, we’ve got no beef; we’re cool," stressing the exchange was all in fun.
  • Sitting beside him, Paul Rudd said he understood the crush and added that he and "America" adore Black, saying "Elle’s got it right."
  • The moment follows Fanning’s 2024 Tonight Show story about a Golden Globes selfie and a "hall pass" joke, as Black and Rudd promote Anaconda opening Dec. 25.
