Naomi Ackie can’t handle Lenny Kravitz!
The 33-year-old actress was overwhelmed by the 60-year-old rocker’s appearance on the set of Blink Twice, co-written and directed by his daughter Zoe Kravitz.
The cast all stayed at the same resort in Mexico where they filmed the movie, and she opened the door one morning to find Lenny.
“I’d never met him before. I opened my bedroom door, and Lenny‘s just there. He was like, ‘Hi, you must be Naomi. I’m Lenny.’ I was like — I shut the door,” she recalled while laughing to People.

She then took a moment to calm down and then said, “Okay, now I’m ready.”
Zoe also joked in the interview that Naomi probably should have asked her father, “So, why are you outside my door?”
Her mother, Lisa Bonet, also came to the set and stayed for a few weeks.
“We had this scene that’s not in the film, with a butterfly in it. And then we had extra butterflies, and so me and my mom took the butterflies to let them be free,” Zoe said. “And my mom, being the amazing person that she is, the butterfly just crawled on her face and wouldn’t leave.”
“I have a picture of her eating french fries with the butterfly. I have a video of her brushing her teeth with the butterfly,” she went on to say.
“My mother had seen a few different versions of it, giving me great notes, and feedback, and all of that. Not about, ‘You’re my daughter, do it like this.’ She was like, ‘That scene is really working. This is really great.’ And my dad was just going to sit back, and let me do the thing. And it was so fun to show both of them the film for the first time.”
“They’re both very proud. They both really liked the film it’s been great to have their support throughout the process,” she added of her parents.
