Comedian Will Ferrell visited Georgia this week to help support Democrat Stacey Abrams's bid for governor in a hotly contested race against Republican Brian Kemp.

Ferrell was captured on video recruiting student volunteers at Kennesaw State University on Friday to join the Georgia Democrat’s campaign.

Photos also surfaced showing the comedian going door-to-door with his wife Viveca Paulin-Ferrell to canvass for Abrams.

Earlier this month, Paulin-Ferrell spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the couple’s decision to campaign for the Democrat.

"We keep asking ourselves, how can we help? What can we do locally being in California? Should we be knocking on doors?" Paulin-Ferrell told the publication. "So we’re going to go knock on doors for Stacey Abrams. You never know in Hollywood if it helps or hurts but we’re trying get out the vote and drive people to the polls."

When she was pressed on how she and her husband planned to use their money to support candidates who their issues align with, Paulin-Ferrell said that she is “on ActBlue all the time donating and maxing out.”

“If there are candidates that I feel really strongly about that are fighting the good fight, whether it be about gun control or the [Brett Kavanaugh Brett Michael KavanaughSenate GOP set to vote on Trump's Supreme Court pick before election Conservative groups unleash ad blitz in support of Barrett's nomination Two Judiciary Democrats say they will not meet with Trump's Supreme Court pick MORE] vote, we are there,” she continued. “We want to be active.”

"It's a critical election coming up and you have to care about it and get young people to care in order to use their power of voting,” she explained. “That's what it comes down to."
