Meet the Parents admitted on the show that he’s not a positive person but she “lifted” her up.

“I really enjoyed it with you,” stated Ben.

To which Drew added that she also enjoyed working with him on the set.

It is pertinent to mention that Ben was accompanied by Adam Scott who came to promote the second season of his Apple TV+ series, Severance.

Elsewhere on the show, the actor opened up that he’s “looking forward to directing more movies” moving forward.

“It’s funny I feel like I've been sort of I've been hiding out a little bit in non-comedies as a director and actor because I think comedies are harder,” he told Drew when she asked about making comedies.

Ben further said, “It's challenging because when you make a comedy people expect to laugh, and if you don't, a very measurable goal and if you don't hit it.”

“There's nothing more fun though, as I'm sure you know, than sitting in the audience of like at a movie theatre watching a comedy,” he noted.
