The man, @foreversawyer, responds by posting a video where he shows off his profile first, then slowly turns to face the camera, offering a smile. As he looks up at the camera, it becomes clear he has a striking resemblance to the actor, at least from the side.

While the video aims to show his likeness to Aaron Pierre, many online viewers were not convinced, with some agreeing that his side profile looked like the actor, but others felt that the comparison wasn't quite accurate. The man became a subject of much light-hearted fun, with some calling him Mustfasa, rather than Mufasa. Others playfully suggested he could be a relative of Pierre but not quite the lookalike everyone expected.

The video sparked a flood of comments, with some praising the man's charming smile and others jokingly saying that he could pass as Aaron's father. Despite the playful teasing, it was clear that the resemblance was enough to stir some fun conversation online.
