A Hollywood star receives an honorary knighthood from British royalty, and how does the internet react?
With a classic Photoshop battle, of course.
Prince Charles bestowed the prestigious title on Kevin Spacey at Clarence House on Thursday.
The 56-year-old was made a Knight Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire for his services to theater, the arts and international culture .
"I may play a President on TV , but in real life I'm now a Sir," Spacey posted to Twitter. "Thanks HRH—what a prince of a guy!"
That may not be strictly true as Spacey won't be able to call himself Sir Kevin, according to Yahoo! Movies, because he is from outside the Commonwealth .
But that little fact didn't stop Redditors from responding with a series of hilariously manipulated images, such as this one depicting Spacey as a "Sir," dressed in the full regalia of a British knight.
Clearly, some think it’s all a big joke.
If Frank Underwood really was President...
A "Se7en" reunion.
Prince Charles doesn't look too happy about being with "The Hound" from “Game of Thrones. ”
Prince Philip , Prince Charles' father, makes a sly appearance in this shot:
A classic face swap.
They are "The Usual Suspects ."
And again...
And a final one, inspired by Spacey's 1999 comedy-drama "American Beauty ."
