Rainn Wilson was right next to an unsuspecting seatmate who was watching the actor in The Office on a recent flight.
Wilson, who starred as Dwight Schrute on the hit series, observed his seatmate watching the show, completely unaware that it was Wilson, in a face mask and wearing headphones, in the next seat over.
Wilson, 57, shared a video of the funny incident on Instagram, writing, “When the person sitting next to you has no idea who you are.”

The actor’s clip went viral on social media platforms, however it remains unknown if the plane passenger eventually noticed his famous seatmate.
Wilson played quirky office worker Schrute from 2005 until the series end in 2013.
The actor, who most recently appeared in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, will soon embark on a publicity tour for his new book, Soul Boom: Why We Need a Spiritual Revolution.
The book covers humanity’s “need for profound healing and a unifying understanding of the world that the great spiritual traditions provide,” according to the official synopsis.

Wilson also made headlines late last year after joking he was changing his legal name in support of climate change.
Wilson announced he would be replacing his original name with Rainnfall Heat Wave Extreme Winter Wilson in a bid to draw more attention to global warming and protest the changing climate.
The comedian announced this bizarre name change on Twitter, revealing he had switched his moniker on all social media and his own “fancy writing paper”, which now reads: “Acid Rainn Kills Trees Wilson”.
While it isn’t an official legal name change, Wilson said he did it as a “cheap stunt to save planet earth”.
He couldn’t, however, change his name on Twitter because of Elon Musk’s crackdown on impersonation.
“Arctic is melting at Millions of Litres per second, yet this problem can’t seem to make a name for itself, so we’ll make a name for it,” he said.
“This is not a joke,” he also said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter.
“I’m as serious as the melting Arctic, which amplifies global risks including extreme weather events around the globe.”
