Michael B. Jordan<\/a><\/strong>would do anything for his mom’s mac and cheese.<\/p>\n

During an appearance on Monday’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon<\/em>, the Black Panther<\/em> star<\/a> revealed the sneaky lengths his mother, Donna Jordan<\/strong>, went to just to make sure her son got to eat his favorite meal on Thanksgiving<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As the actor told host Jimmy Fallon<\/a><\/strong>, “My mom’s mac and cheese is legendary.”<\/p>\n

“She only makes it a couple times a year,” he added. “Thanksgiving, birthdays.” As Fallon then asked, “You had it this year?” The answer was yes, but it was a bit of a convoluted story.<\/p>\n

As Jordan explained, “Actually, I did. Somehow she found a way to sneak it, like through customs. And she got it to Berlin. I was in Berlin filming for the past three months, and I missed my first Thanksgiving<\/a> in I don’t know how long, so she somehow figured out a way to get mac and cheese and fer famous meat and mac to me in Germany.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

In an absolutely heartwarming moment, the Creed<\/em> alum<\/a> then added, “My mom somehow found a way to get a little bit of home all the way in Germany.”<\/p>\n

Jordan clearly has a great relationship with his mama. The star loves to bring her along as his date to his various public events. He brought her as his date to the 2019 Oscars<\/a>, as well as the David Makes Man<\/em> premiere<\/a> in Los Angeles in August, so yeah, the mother\/son love runs deep here.<\/p>\n

Another person the 32-year-old star<\/a> has a lot of love for is Jamie Foxx<\/a><\/strong>, his co-star in the upcoming film Just Mercy<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The film, in theaters on Christmas, is based on the true story of Walter McMillian<\/strong> (played by Foxx), a man who was wrongly convicted of murder. Jordan’s character, Bryan Stevenson<\/strong>, ends up getting him exonerated.<\/p>\n

Jordan revealed to Fallon that Foxx was invaluable<\/a> in keeping everyone’s spirits up on set while filming the heavy subject matter.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“We were dealing with such heavy material,” Jordan told the host. “He was excellent at playing music to kind of get us in and out of moments. I think we were dealing with such heavy stakes all the time, he would play songs to kind of set the mood for a scene. But then also play songs to kind of get us out of it as well. He was definitely a big cheerleader<\/a> on set. Always telling jokes, he’s an amazing storyteller.”<\/p>\n

No doubt, his mother’s mac and cheese also would have helped lift the mood.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
