YouTube star MrBeast makes a small cameo in the new movie, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem."

On Tuesday, the official Twitter account for the movie shared a look at the credits, which include MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, listed as a character by the name of "Times Square Guy."

Times Square Guy appears in a brief but humorous interaction with the turtles' father figure and sensei, Splinter (Jackie Chan).

MrBeast's cameo in 'TMNT: Mutant Mayhem' explained

During a flashback scene in the movie, sewer-dwelling Splinter (Jackie Chan) attempts to ingratiate himself into the human world and walks through Times Square.

However, when it is discovered he is a giant rat, a crowd of angry humans confronts him.

Times Square Guy walks up to Splinter and touches his ear, stating: "It's just a bad Mickey Mouse costume." But when he realizes that Splinter is indeed a giant rat, he runs away and yells: "It's real. I touched it!"

MrBeast is a 24-year-old YouTuber best known for his viral stunt videos.

MrBeast is one of the most-viewed and highest-paid creators on YouTube, and earlier this year he won his second Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award for favorite male creator.

Last week, Variety reported that Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies have already greenlit a sequel to "TMNT: Mutant Mayhem," as well as a two-season spinoff series, "Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," which will air on Paramount+ and "bridge" the gap between the two movies.

As well as MrBeast, the movie's star-studded voice cast includes Jackie Chan, Seth Rogen, Ayo Edebiri, John Cena, Rose Byrne, Maya Rudolph, Ice Cube, Paul Rudd, and Post Malone.

"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem" is in theaters now.
