Regé-Jean Pageloved acting alongsideChris EvansandRyan Gosling.
During his first in-studio appearance onThe Tonight Show with Jimmy FallonTuesday, theBridgertonstar, 34, opened up about working with the two stars inThe Gray Man.
“Incredible and hilarious,” Page told hostJimmy Fallon, when asked what working with Evans and Gosling, both 41, was like.
“Gosling’s got the most wonderful, wry, absurdist humor,” Page explained. “And I think that Evans is very, kind of like, begrudgingly grateful.”
“The ‘trash-stache’ thing, that’s a Gosling original, he was just like throwing out disses to Evans between takes, he was just like ‘Looks like a trash-stache’,” he said of the banter. “There’s a ton of those on the cutting room floor.”
In the film, now streaming onNetflix, Page plays the “deliciously devious” Denny Carmichael, who is the head of the CIA.

When asked about how he got the role in the film, Page said there are “different versions” of the story of how he first connected with the Russo brothers.
“There’s a version that Joe tells where his wife watchedBridgerton, there’s a version where he watched it with his wife,” he explained. “There’s a version where Anthony says he was like picking up his kids and all the moms were talking about me and he was like ‘I need to know who this dude is.’ "
He continued, “The common thread is essentially some powerful men had the women in their lives talk to them and we all know run the world at this point.”
