Certified Young Person Paul Rudd delivers a PSA for wearing masks

Paul Rudd, pandemic, Ant-Man, First We Feast

Certified Young Person Paul Rudd has teamed with First We Feast to present a hilarious PSA in which the forever young actor – posing as an out-of-touch millennial – appears confused as to why he and his homies should have to wear a mask during the ongoing pandemic.

"Two days ago I was talking on the iPhone with my homie, Governor Cuomo, and he's just going off about how us millennials need to wear masks," Rudd complains while dressed in fresh gear with a skateboard tucked beneath his arm. "So Cuomo asks me, he says hey Paul, you've gotta help. What are you like, 26? And I didn't correct him. I said fam, let's real-talk. Masks? They're totally beast. So slide that into your DMs and Twitch it," Rudd continues before pulling a double-necked electric guitar from the ether and strumming a tasty jam.

Before long, Rudd drops his devil-may-care attitude and yells into the camera: "Just wear a mask! I shouldn't have to make it fun! It's science! It's … it's science! Uggghhhhhhh!"

 

 

While Paul Rudd shouldn't have to make a PSA about wearing masks fun, I'm sure glad that he did. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've gotta go hop on my board and shred some concrete before I join Paul in yelling about how important it is to listen to the experts and wear a damn mask.

Be sure to catch Paul Rudd when he stars as Mr. Grooberson for Ivan Reitman's GHOSTBUSTERS: AFTERMATH. Also, rumor has it that Jonathan Majors is joining Rudd and Evangeline Lilly for Marvel's ANT-MAN 3. You can read more about that here. Stay safe out there, everybody!
