Amy Schumer has once again stirred the pot with a hilariously candid revelation, asserting that her Trainwreck co-star, John Cena, was "actually inside her" during their infamously awkward sex scene in the 2015 hit comedy.
The comment, made in jest during an Australian chat show, has sent ripples across entertainment news outlets and social media, sparking renewed interest in the popular film and the careers of both Schumer and Cena.
The scene in question from Judd Apatow's Trainwreck features Schumer's commitment-phobic character, Amy, in a comedic, yet intimate, encounter with Cena's gym-obsessed character, Steven.
The humor of the scene largely stemmed from Cena's character's inability to "talk dirty" without resorting to fitness-related jargon or even Mandarin.
While the on-screen chemistry was undeniably awkward and laugh-out-loud funny, Schumer's recent quip adds a new layer to its legacy.
John Cena himself has previously opened up about the challenges of filming the scene, describing it as "awkward" and "real embarrassing" in various interviews, including on the "Club Shay Shay" podcast.
He highlighted the non-intimate nature of a film set, with numerous crew members, catering, and sound tents present, making any "sex scene" inherently uncomfortable.
Cena also reportedly wore a modesty pouch, described as a "Spandex sock," for the duration of the shoot, further emphasizing the technical and artificial nature of such a performance.
His initial hesitation to even discuss the graphic scenes with his then-partner, Nikki Bella, underscores the personal discomfort actors can face.
Despite the inherent awkwardness, the scene became a comedic highlight of Trainwreck, showcasing a surprising comedic talent in John Cena, primarily known at the time for his illustrious WWE career.
Trainwreck marked a significant turning point for both actors. For Schumer, who also wrote the screenplay, it was her breakout starring film role, earning her a Golden Globe nomination and cementing her status as a formidable comedic voice in Hollywood.
For Cena, it was a pivotal moment in his transition from professional wrestling superstar to a versatile actor capable of both action and, notably, comedy.
He has since gone on to star in numerous successful films and TV series, including Blockers, Bumblebee, F9, and the critically acclaimed series Peacemaker.
The enduring buzz around this particular Trainwreck moment, nearly a decade after its release, speaks to the film's lasting impact and the unique comedic sensibilities of its stars.
Schumer's willingness to push boundaries with her humor, even if in jest, continues to generate headlines and keep her relevant in the ever-evolving entertainment landscape.
