"That was from when a knife stuck in [it]," Kelly said as he showed Fallon the scar. "‘Cause, you know how you throw it up, and you’re supposed to catch it? I looked at [Fox], and I was like, ‘Check this out.’ And I was like, ‘Ugh!'"

The director of the film opened up about the chemistry he noticed between the actors on set.

"As a director, I felt, 'Wow, there's some real magic happening there,' but I didn't see any more than that," Randall Emmett explained.

"They're both incredible actors, and their chemistry was flawless. I was just looking at them and thinking, 'Wow, that was a great scene,' but didn't really think about anything else."
