Johnson posted on his Instagram that, because he has received so many DMs from families who are watching the movie while cooped up in their houses, he is opening up his email inbox to requests for personalized voice notes. Demand is likely to be high, you’d think, and he did apologize in advance to anyone who doesn’t get a response.

The actor added the #stayhome hashtag to his post, which many are using to spread awareness of the necessity of staying in to prevent the virus spread.
