Actor Kevin Bacon served up a dose of nostalgia on his TikTok last week when he launched a viral “Footloose”-themed challenge with his wife Kyra Sedgwick.
The video has racked up over 13.8 million views to date.
Bacon, who starred in the 1984 film as rebellious teenager Ren McCormack, wrote on his post: “I don’t recall this being part of the original #Footloose #dance choreography, but I thought that we would give it a ride.”
He added in the comments: “And yes, it was as hard as it sounds.”
Although the couple’s spectacular performance seemed quite smooth, the actor later revealed on Instagram that their routine wasn’t as smooth as it looked.
“Aftermath of a TikTok #Footloose dance,” the actor wrote.
No one said detachment was priceless.
