‘Fauxvreau': Greenspot thanks director Jon Favreau for visiting diner, only it's not him
If a celebrity visits your establishment, it's customary to thank them on social media for dropping by. In the case of St-Henri diner Greenspot, their Instagram post earlier this June thanking American actor and director Jon Favreau for making the trip has gone viral because the man in the photo, while baring a slight resemblance, is clearly not the director and executive producer of The Mandalorian. 'Thank you for your visit,' the Instagram post read. 'We looking forward to welcoming you again soon.' The post also tagged the filmmaker, who has yet to respond. He is posting almost exclusively about his work on Star Wars these days. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Greenspot Restaurant (@greenspot1947) That didn't stop others from pointing out that the man in the photo isn't the Swingers star. Commenters called the impostor everything from 'Jean Favfaux' to 'Jon Favno.' While the post in question made locals chuckle when it was posted on June 15, only recently has it taken on new life internationally. On Reddit's MadeMeSmile Subreddit, one poster said they 'can't stop smiling' from the IG post. On X, Barstool Sports host Jeff D. Lowe wrote Sunday: 'Lmao I'm crying at this post. Some restaurant in Montreal posted a thank you to Jon Favreau for visiting their spot. It's just quite simply not him.' That prompted Cllct Media's Darren Rovell to respond: 'Maybe him in 1985.' For now, Greenspot has kept the post up. Lmao I'm crying at this post. Some restaurant in Montreal posted a thank you to Jon Favreau for visiting their spot. It's just quite simply not him. — Jeff D. Lowe (@JeffDLowe) June 29, 2025 Meanwhile, Favreau is the director of The Mandalorian and Grogu, a new film from the Star Wars universe set for release in theatres in 2026.
