Jack Black ‘I will never be one of those Dance Mums’
Call him whatever you like, but don't say Jack Black is a pushy parent!
The comedian's son Samuel 'Sammy' Black had a small part in his latest flick, Kung Fu Panda 3, but the funnyman tells us that his 10-year-old kid asked him to be in the film, not the other way around!

“He asked and I said, ‘I’ll see what I can do’,” Black told Yahoo 7! Entertainment.
“It’s not a big role. His line is ‘Save the Valley’. He says it kind of hoarse. That was his idea to do it in that voice. I wanted him to do his thing.“
“You don’t want to be one of those Dance Mums waiting in the wings. ‘Don’t forget to smile, and do your thing and the other thing too, and 1, 2, 3,… we’re gonna be famous.’ I don’t want to put that kinda crap in his head.”
What’s more, the 46-year-old star says he’s planning on teaming up with his 'Kung Fu Panda' co-star Jackie Chan for an action film that he wants to call Cheeseburger!
“I finally got to meet Jackie Chan after 10 years [of working together on Kung Fu Panda] and it was amazing,” Black says.
“I met him in China. He said, “I like you.’ I could be lying here….. ‘You think of idea, we make a movie.’ It’s called Cheeseburger, we’ve already got the sequel figured out, Double Cheeseburger.”
Will it involve eating lots of cheeseburgers?
“That’s all you need to know,” Black adds. “You think I’m going to spill the beans? We’ll talk later.”
Whenever you're ready, Jack....
Kung Fu Panda 3 is in cinemas March 24.
