ACTOR Paul Rudd got down with kids for a toe-curling public service film in which he begs “fellow millennials” to wear a mask and do the “save grandma challenge”.

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo shared the cringe-fest clip on his official Twitter account, writing: “Certified young person Paul Rudd wants you to wear a mask. Listen up.”

Paul Rudd has been mobilized to make millenials see sense and stop spreading Covid-19

He says: ‘What about save grandma challenge — that fun enough for yeh?’

Dressed in a hoodie and holding a skateboard the 51-year-old actor says: “Yo, what up, doogs, Paul Rudd here. Actor and certified young person.

“A few 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 because, get this, apparently a lot of covid is transmitted by us millennials.

“So Cuoms asked me, he’s like, ‘Paul, you gotta help! What are you, like 26?’ And I didn’t correct him.”

He adds: “Fam, let’s real talk: masks, they’re totally beast — so slide that into your DMs and twitch it.

“Yas queens like ourselves, we want to go to bars, we want to drink, hook up, do our TikToks — I get it.”

Then he pretends to talk to singer Billie Eilish on the phone, he adds: “What’s that? You’re wearing your mask? Man, I wanna stan you. You’re so my bae.”

He goes on to parody TikTok challenges 

“How bout a stop the pandemic challenge, what about that? What about save grandma challenge — that fun enough for yeh?”

The actor showcases his flair for beatboxing, before concluding: “Please, it’s not hard, people are dying — hundreds of thousands of people are dying and it’s preventable.

“It’s preventable — just wear a mask, I shouldn’t have to make it fun. It’s science.”

The clip finishes with Rudd featuring on the YouTube show Hot Ones, where celebs eat spicy barbecue wings while answering questions.

It shows both Rudd and host Sean Evans sporting face masks which are smeared with sauce.

It comes as Cuomo launched a campaign in July called Mask Up America, which featured a series of videos of celebrities including Robert De Niro, Kaitlyn Dever and Jamie Foxx.

Yesterday fines of $50 were introduced for New York City commuters who refuse to wear a mask on subways, trains and buses.

Cuomo said he hopes the penalty would encourage people to return to public transit by lowering the possibility of catching the bug.

Nearly 200,000 Covid-related deaths have been recorded in the United States, which is the worst in the world.
