Popular television and movie actor Jason Sudeikis was hounded by fans and paparazzi alike on Sunday evening while trying to exit the Dynasty Typewriter Comedy Club in Los Angeles.

A special guest at a book release that evening, Sudeikis left the club and walked into a frenzied group of 15 to 20 people who had reportedly been waiting hours to catch a glimpse of the 49-year-old.

Video obtained by TMZ showed Sudeikis – who looks every bit the average individual with a green backpack slung over his shoulders – trying to break from a pack of followers as he walked down the street.

In the video, someone who is walking slightly ahead of the actor is heard asking for a photograph.

The outlet reports that Sudeikis initially signed a few autographs before being bombarded. Eventually, an exhausted and frightened Sudeikis turned around and implored those following him to give it up.

“Please stop. Stop! I’m not going to sign anything, okay? I literally have to go. I’m sorry,” the former “Saturday Night Live” star pleaded. “That was a lot. That scared the s— out of me,” he continued, likely referencing the crowd outside the comedy club.

“For real, I’m just a human being. Please stop, please. I’m going – I’m going home. Goodnight, alright? I’m sorry. Okay?”

A representative for Sudeikis did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

Sudeikis is not the first “Ted Lasso” star to express discomfort with how they were treated in public. This spring, actress Hannah Waddingham did not mince words with a photographer whom she felt made an inappropriate comment toward her while posing for photographs at the Olivier Awards, where the Brit served as host.

Video captured by a fan and shared with Fox News Digital showed her posing for photographs outside before becoming visibly perturbed by something out of frame. 

“Oh my god, you’d never say that to a man, my friend,” Waddingham can be heard saying. “Don’t be a d—. Otherwise, I’ll veer off. Don’t say, ‘Show me the legs,’” she said.

Following the incident, the actress, now 50, walked down the stairs shaking her head, much to the delight of onlookers who seemed tickled by her remarks. Before descending another set of stairs, Waddingham appeared to exchange more words, albeit briefly, with the photographer. It is not clear what was said.
