Things got a little steamy on a recent episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live after the host posed a challenge to Star Wars: The Force Awakens director J.J. Abrams and his cohort, Chewbacca — specifically, the The New York Collaborates for Autism (NYCA) Twizzler Challenge.
The Twizzler Challenge aims to raise funds and awareness to help support autism schools, programs and services. It's similar to the Ice Bucket Challenge, in which participants would dump a bucket of ice or ice water over their head to raise awareness for ALS research.
As Abrams and Chewbacca demonstrate, this challenge requires you to munch your way to the middle of a shared Twizzler — think of the famous spaghetti scene from Lady and the Tramp. Unfortunately for Abrams, it's apparently hard to get anywhere close to Chewbacca's mouth parts without getting some furry blowback.
The latest trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens premiered last week during Star Wars Celebration. For all the news, check out our StoryStream.
