“They even had to remove the Rocky statue because it didn't exist when the original movie was being made.”
“I got to run up the iconic Philadelphia steps, recreate Rocky's legendary moments and even drink raw eggs.”
“As an actor, this is what you want. It was so surreal and inspiring. I got a crash course in what this man was able to overcome, and it was a real privilege.”

“I love tuna salad and tuna melts. But every time I tell people I like tuna, I feel like there's always a little side eye. People look at you differently when you order it at a restaurant.”

Trevor Noah: “Literally yesterday, this has never been on my feed, this has never come up. I don't understand why this popped up on my YouTube, a video of you talking about Kanye. How?”
Michael Che: “I don't know who taped that. I never talked about it, nobody ever mentioned it, and then all of a sudden, it's just everywhere.”
Trevor Noah: “How does it come out like seven years later? Why is it out now?”
Michael Che: “It just feels like a really kind of shitty thing to put out that way. If you're taping people at work, you should get some kind of consent form, right?”

Tom Holland reveals how Christopher Nolan pushed him out of his comfort zone on the set of The Odyssey, challenging him to deliver an emotional crying scene while working under a strict three minute camera limit.
“Chris is very prescriptive with the way that he writes. It says in the scene where I cry with Menelaus that Telemachus breaks down into tears, which I actually find quite terrifying.”
“He told me the camera could only run for three minutes, so we had to get through the scene much quicker. For me, it was a real technical challenge.”
“I think he was kind of testing me. It went really well, and he gave me a hug and a pat on the back.”
“He gave me so much confidence that I could exist in his world and be part of a movie of this scale.”

“It's probably the one I get yelled at most.”
“I'm just going to the shop to buy milk or whatever, and they scream, ‘No fighting! Fight!’”
“There is no context, yeah.”
“I love the ending of season six. It was quite ambiguous and quite open-ended. We were going to do season seven and then COVID happened, so we pivoted to the movie.”

“I don't want to do it, but I have to. Everybody's standing there watching, and when the script girl gets up there, you got to do it.”
“Ryan Reynolds gave me a black eye during an incredibly violent fight scene as a leaving gift. And when we were doing the crazy driving scenes, we were going 100, 120 km an hour flying.”

Jennifer Lawrence reveals her parents were so cheap they made her ride wild, untrained horses without saddles as a child, leaving her with a permanently deformed tailbone after being thrown off multiple times.
“My parents were cheap, so they never bought trained horses. I have a deformed tailbone actually from being thrown off of a horse.”
“At one point, the horse was running into an abandoned barn, so I had to just jump ship and drop and roll.”
“I didn't really ride with a saddle. My mom said those were for the people who boarded their horses there, so I just kind of hopped on and went for it.”
When David Letterman joked about her parents, Jennifer admitted:
“I'm going to get my parents arrested. My childhood in my mind seems so lovely and just picturesque, and then I talk back about it and I'm like, oh my god.”
