Mindy Kaling Reacts to Viral Moment From Meghan Markle’s Netflix Show Appearance
Jake Shane is ready for his close-up.
The internet personality, known as “Octopusslover8” online, announced his role in the upcoming fourth season of Hacks with a behind-the-scenes photo of his appearance on the Max comedy.
“It’s not every day you fall in love with a TV show,” Jake wrote alongside the pic in an April 2 Instagram post, “and then get to guest star in it.”
The 25-year-old went on to thank the creatives behind the Emmy-winning series—which stars Jean Smart as a legendary comedian seeking to reinvent herself—for “trusting me with their vision,” saying he was “so grateful to be a part of this masterpiece of a show.”
Jake first gained prominence as a TikTok creator in 2023 with his humorous historical reenactments, later launching his Therapuss podcast which has featured notable interviews with stars like Glen Powell, Joe Jonas and Tate McRae. But the influencer has also been candid about the intrapersonal effects of his meteoric rise.
