Hunky party-crasher alert! Actor Jake Gyllenhaal surprised an audience of local college students at a Saturday night screening of his new thriller “Nightcrawler” at the AMC Loews Georgetown.

Students in the audience (from Georgetown, George Washington, American, Howard and George Mason universities) were expecting to hear a few closing remarks from writer-director David Gilroy about the movie, which stars Gyllenhaal as a man who stumbles into the gritty world of freelance crime journalism in L.A.

But Gilroy brought along an unexpected (and squeal-inducing) guest. After being introduced, Gyllenhaal (looking slimmed-down for his role and casual in a black T-shirt) hopped into the audience for some selfie action with the excited students. Gyllenhaal is getting to be a pro at crashing — he similarly surprised moviegoers in Boston and Philadelphia.

Here are more adorable pics of his Washington antics:
