Fans Can’t Get Over ‘Modern Family’ Star’s Entrance on Jimmy Fallon’s Talk Show originally appeared on Parade.
Jesse Tyler Ferguson literally rolled into his latest talk show interview, and fans can’t get enough of it.
The actor best known for his role as Mitchell Pritchett in the ABC sitcom Modern Family went on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday night and discussed various topics with the late-night host, including his joint birthday party with husband Justin Mikita, failing at solving a Wheel of Fortune Hamilton puzzle in front of Hamilton‘s Renée Elise Goldsberry and performing in Twelfth Night at Shakespeare in the Park.
When Ferguson enters the set, he quickly gets on his knees and rolls onto his back, then gets back up and hits a Spiderman pose. Afterwards, he walks over to Fallon and hugs him, then proceeds to pretend to struggle going up the steps onto the stage before sitting down in the guest chair.
