For a moment, Twitter users were worried actor Danny Devito’s Twitter account had been hacked.
Or the actor was having some sort of break from reality.
Weird tweets started appearing on his feed on August 25.
Fans tweeted their confusion and concern.
\u201c@DannyDeVito What\u201d— Danny DeVito (@Danny DeVito) 1661479268

But what fans didn’t realize—and DeVito didn't mention—was the iconic actor’s latest show Little Devil was premiering on FX and DeVito was live-tweeting during the show.
The new animated show comes from one of the creators of Rick and Morty and features DeVito's daughter Lucy as Satan's daughter, Aubrey Plaza as her mother and DeVito as Satan.
As you can tell from the minds behind it and the set up, some absurd and raunchy moments happen in the cartoon that is catered to adults.
DeVito eventually clarified his posts were references to and quotes from the show.

Once it was confirmed his account wasn't hacked and he was doing well, people joined in with excitement for the show.
