Jones has now taken to Facebook to share a new message reminding audiences that Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is, in fact, a fictional story. The actor claims to have received some private messages from viewers about the film, seemingly regarding one uncomfortable scene his character has with a young Furiosa. Check out Jones' post below:

"I've noticed a few queries and private messages about my role in Mad Max: Furiosa," Jones writes, "Particularly regarding a scene with young Furiosa. This is a very sensitive subject, and I want to emphasize that it involves a fictional character." He continues: "The details can be uncomfortable, and as an actor, my job is to portray a character based on the direction and script provided to me. I appreciate your understanding and support in recognizing the distinction between fiction and reality. Thank you."

Hey, I've seen this movie — having to explain that actors pretend to do things that aren't actually real was the plot of Galaxy Quest!

Are we on the timeline where explain movies are not reality?

Apparently we've been on it for a while.

Considering the size of him, I imagine those DMing him probably wouldn't say anything to him in person.

He really is the one person who needs to reply, "Say that to my face!"
