Two women have gone viral on TikTok after approaching a man to ask him if he’d like to go on a date with them – but failed to realise he is a very famous British actor. 

YouTuber Ruby Hexx and her pal Ivy Fox were taking part in a popular TikTok trend where they asked strangers if they’d rather have $100 or go on a date with the pair of them.

But the pair were clueless when they approached Love Actually and Maze Runner star Thomas Brodie-Sangster.

In the video, the two girls run up to Thomas on the street with a microphone and ambush him with the question: ‘Would you rather $100 or a date with us two.’

He responded: ‘Oh, I’m in a relationship, so I’d take the $100, no offence!

‘How do they not know who that is!’: The pair were clueless when they approached Love Actually and Maze Runner star Thomas Brodie-Sangster

Thomas is currently dating Elon Musk’s ex wife Talulah Riley after meeting on the set of Disney’s Pistol.

As the girls walked away giggling, he called after them: ‘But I’m also English so dollars are no use to me. So I’d have neither.’

Bargaining with Thomas, one of the girls suggests £90? to which he replied: ‘All right, 90 quid then.’

One of the girls then realises she recognises him and asks: ‘Just out of interest, are you an actor?’

He replied: ‘I am an actor’

She then appeared to confuse him for actor Skandar Keynes as she quipped: ‘Did you do The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe?’

Thomas politely told the girls: ‘No. I went to the premiere but I wasn’t in it.’

After uploading the clip to TikTok it went viral as fans were shocked and flooded the comment section with films Thomas has appeared in. 

One wrote: ‘How can you not know who that is’

Another said: He’s in loads of movies’

A third quipped: ‘The kid from Love Actually’

Another pointed out: ‘Swear that was the guy from Maze Runner’ 

It comes after Brodie-Sangster recently made an appearance on ABC’s Diane Sawyer special The Laughter & Secrets of Love Actually: 20 Years Later.

Sawyer, 76, traveled to filming locations of the 2003 rom-com Love Actually in Brooklyn and London, to chat with the cast and writer-director Richard Curtis.

During one of her stops in London, she chatted with Brodie-Sangster when their interview was cut short with an ‘abrupt’ visit by the police.

Sawyer and Brodie-Sangster were sitting on the same London bench where he filmed an iconic scene with his on-screen stepfather Daniel (Liam Neeson).

During their chat, a crew member approaches and tells them they have to leave because they ‘don’t have the proper permit and they’re going to arrest us.’

Brodie-Sangster called the interruption ‘abrupt,’ while Sawyer responded with a joke.

‘Oh they are? Now we run,’ Sawyer said with a laugh.
