Actor Justin Theroux is a busy man these days. Yes, he recently wed long-time fiance, actress Jennifer Aniston, and he’s starring in his second season of the HBO series Leftovers.

But Theroux said he somehow found the time “to buy the rights to this amazing video” for a new project. It’s the now infamous profanity-laced tirade of the University of Connecticut mac ‘n’ cheese kid. Theroux created a 3-minute parody of the incident — Mad Mac: Hunger Is No Game.

“I was interested in the character,” explained Theroux who announced the project on the Jimmy Kimmel Live show Thursday where the trailer was shown.

The video opens with scenes of the bucolic upstate Connecticut campus, followed by a shot of the nerdy white sock and black Adidas flip-flops that 19-year-old Luke Gatti of Bayville, NY was wearing the night of the Oct. 4 incident. The incident — in which Gatti repeated demands he “wants my mac ‘n’ cheese” — was caught in a nine-minute video that was posted on You Tube and became an international viral sensation.

Gatti is facing criminal charges in connection with the incident that involved non-stop insults and vulgarities, and shoving the restaurant manager who told Gatti he would not be served his desired bacon jalapeno mac ‘n’ cheese because the student was drunk.

When Kimmel asked Theroux about the apology video that Gatti made and was posted on You Tube earlier this week, Theroux quipped, “That might be our sequel.”
