Will Ferrell found getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame “surreal”.

The actor was joined by wife Viveca Paulin and their three sons when he was honoured on Tuesday and was thrilled to accept the accolade in recognition of his successful career.

He told E! News: “It’s one of those very surreal moments where it’s a place that you’ve visited a lot growing up, especially growing up in southern California, and looking at all the names, but I don’t think you’d ever envision that one day you’ll be in that same company.”

During the ceremony, Will’s Step Brothers and Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby co-star, John C Reilly, and former Saturday Night Live cast mate, Molly Shannon, paid tribute to him.
