'Mahi Mahi. Fish tacos tonight. My house,' wrote Scott.

And he told his fans: 'Don't just go to the store or restaurant your whole life and ask for your fish or meat. Understand the cycle of life. 

'Live it and Respect it. We are only on this planet for a short time. Get out of your comfort zone and try something new!!! Makes us all grow!'

Scott is also one of the many Hollywood stars appearing in the superhero film, Suicide Squad, expected out in August 2016. 

His most recent role was alongside Taylor Swift in the video for her new track, Wildest Dreams, which premiered on Sunday's MTV VMAs.

The video revolves around two 1950s-era movie stars filming in Africa and there has been some backlash, with critics calling it racist and saying it panders to 'rich white fantasies' from a colonial era.

'But someone I am proud to call a friend. 

'She is a great person and those are hard to find in your life. When you do.... Hold tight.'
