“By the way, this is way less stressful than up there,” the Free Guy actor said, when asked why he was at the morning talk show. “My mum is here visiting her grandkids. And yesterday she said, ‘It’s my dream to go to The View.’ And I said, well, first off, I try to do what she says because you don’t know what she’s capable of. Unspeakable violence, my whole life,” he joked.
