You mightn't be a fan of any of Samuel L. Jackson's movies but there's one person who definitely is.

Like you need a reminder about the confidence of this man, you can pretty much find a video of him telling everyone "I'm Samuel L Jackson!" Turns out he loves to watch his own movies as well, because "He's Samuel L Jackson!"

Jackon appeared on Ellen on Monday to promote his new movie Kong: Skull Island and to speak about how much he loves freebies.

"People always ask me what's the best thing about being famous and I always tell them, the free stuff," he said.

But, if there's one thing the actor loves more than scoring free stuff, it's his own movies.

"Back when I was doing theatre in New York, I always wanted to see the play I was in with me in it and that's impossible.

"So, when I got a chance to do movies that was like, heaven," the 68-year-old actor said.

"That's why I'm here. I can watch me all the time," Jackson told Ellen to a barrage of laughter from the audience.
