Watch: Andrey Rublev stars as security personnel in the latest star-studded production alongside Daniil Medvedev, Ons Jabeur, Maria Sakkari, and others

As for Rune, he assisted the fans in a shop while de Minaur pretended to be one of the guys assisting in parking. On the women’s side, Ons Jabeur and Maria Sakkari were the ones participating. The Greek was offering popcorn to the spectators. Meanwhile, the Tunisian stood near the gate offering the site’s map.

The interactions couldn’t get any funnier between the fans and the players. One person asked for a selfie with Medvedev claiming he looked like his ‘brother-in-law’. A couple of ladies wrongly identified Rublev as Italian sensation Jannik Sinner.

Another spectator questioned Medvedev if he was ‘Medvedev’s brother’ claiming he resembled the former US Open champ. The Russian had his fun with him in a funny conversation but didn’t reveal his true identity.

One lady nearly identified Rublev but he straight-up denied it and said he didn’t like the player. Jabeur was however identified by multiple people. She kindly obliged for selfies with them as her identity was revealed. Eventually, Sakkari and de Minaur were also identified as fans asked for selfies and the players quickly posed for them.
