J.J. Abrams took the Twizzler Challenge with Chewbacca Tuesday night to support Autism awareness.

JJ Abrams And Chewbacca Take The Twizzler Challenge

The Twizzler Challenge encourages Autism awareness and encourages people to donate to New York Collaborates for Autism, similar to the Ice Bucket Challenge. Abrams, who directs Chewbacca in the upcoming Star Wars: The Force Awakens, sent in a video to Jimmy Kimmel Live of him and Chewbacca doing the challenge after being challenged by Jimmy Kimmel, who took part in the Twizzler Challenge with Rihanna on his show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, earlier this month.

After finishing the Twizzler, and spitting out a few hairs, Abrams challenged Kimmel’s sidekick Guillermo and Jennifer Aniston.

Celebs Do The #TwizzlerChallenge

The challenge consists of sharing a Twizzler Lady and the Tramp style. The challenge was inspired by a Twitter dare performed on Comedy Central’s Night of Too Many Stars by Willie Geist and Orange is the New Black’s Uzo Aduba, which raised money for Autism research and support.

Other celebrities who have participated in the #TwizzlerChallenge include Rita Wilson and Andy Cohen and Scandal’s Katie Lowes and Gillermo Díaz.
