Jack Black Fully Forgets He Was in 'The Holiday' During a Truly Iconic Interview

  • Jack Black was asked to name his favorite Christmas movie and completely forgot about The Holiday.

  • FWIW, he's a big fan of Elf.


If your personal interests include watching cozy Christmas movies throughout the month of December, then you've most definitely seen The Holiday several dozen times. Honestly, it's a total classic at this point, and Jack Black is literally the main character (along with Jude Law, Kate Winslet, and Cameron Diaz).

Yet, when Jack was asked what his favorite movie to watch during this cozy time of year is, he completely failed to name drop his own film and instead said Elf. “My favorite holiday film — it’s got to be Elf,” he told Variety in a red carpet interview. “Jon Favreau, I don't know if I'm saying it right, and Will Ferrell just knocking it out of the park.”

The interviewer then said “You could have said your own movie,” and the look of confusion on Jack's face was just ??. Then this poor dude was just all “Do I have a Christmas movie? Which one is mine?” before realizing he was literally in one of the most famous Christmas movies of all time and saying, “Oh, The Holiday! Obviously, The Holiday! Nancy Meyers — genius.”
