Dennis Quaid's angry on-set outburst caught on camera -- But is it a joke?

Dennis Quaid was caught flying off the handle as camera phones rolled, but some believe the 61-year-old's temper tantrum was staged.

"I am acting here, and this dickhead wanders onto my set," Quaid screams in the 40-second video. "I can't even get a line out until Dopey the Dick starts whispering in your ear, and you're not even watching anymore."

The actor goes on to call his co-workers zombies and pu**ies in his profanity-laden outburst. "This is the most unprofessional set I have ever been on. This is horse s**t!" he says angrily.

On Monday, a Reddit commenter claimed the video is a bit for "Jimmy Kimmel Live" sketch. While that has yet to be confirmed, it does seem likely. Back in September 2013, Kimmel managed to pull one over on everyone when a "Twerking Fail" video hit the Web and went viral. It as later revealed that "JKL" was behind the entire thing.

Following the leak of this Quaid's video, Sony's Crackle announced that the actor would be starring in an hour-long drama series for the digital network, titled "The Art of More." According to Deadline, the series "explores the underbelly-and surprisingly cutthroat world-of premium auction houses, filled with hustlers, smugglers, power mongers and collectors of the beautiful and the bizarre."

What do you think of Quaid's outburst? Is he for real?
