Jon Heder Shares Rare Update 20 Years After Napoleon Dynamite


Two decades later, fans still love quoting Napoleon Dynamite to Jon Heder.

“The tots line is actually the one that gets yelled to me the most,” the actor—who portrayed the titular character in the 2004 cult film—recently told E! News, “which I will accept.” (ICYMI, that would be, “Napoleon, give me some of your tots.”)

Indeed, the Napoleon Dynamite fandom is so strong, even Heder’s young kids have joined in on the fun.

“They’re very aware of the craze,” the dad of four shared. “My daughter actually enjoys it. She’s 7. She’s like, ‘Oh, can we watch clips from the movie?'”

His 10-year-old son, on the other hand, “loves the reaction it gets, he understands it for the fame aspect,” the 46-year-old noted. “I don’t know if he cares that much about the movie. But he loves to tell people who I am.”

Heder, too, has a soft spot for the comedy. To celebrate the 20th anniversary this month, he stepped back into his character’s shoes—and pants—for an Ore-Ida partnership that references a memorable scene from the movie…and offers a solution to crushed tots.
