Chris Pratt absolutely did not hold back when given the chance to make fun of Jennifer Lawrence and hit her where it hurt with a joke about their sex scene.
I imagine most co-stars grow pretty close while working together on a movie, so it's normal to see some banter and inside jokes when they're out doing press.
Rarely are the stars actually given permission to make fun of one another, but that opportunity came for Pratt and Lawrence when they sat down to take part in BBC Radio 1's segment Playground Insults.
The segment is pretty much what it says on the tin: it offers stars the chance to hit each other with the pettiest and most childish quips they can come up with, and neither Pratt or Lawrence wasted the chance.

Things started off quite tame as the Lawrence joked about Pratt's 'false strength' and claimed his three-year-old son was responsible for teaching him 'everything [he] know[s]'.
Pratt, meanwhile, joked: "It's such a shame to meet someone you thought you'd like," and asked Lawrence how it felt to be in 'the stupidest Marvel movie'.
After a bit more back and forth, Pratt went for the jugular as he made a brutal reference to the sex scene between the two stars in Passengers.

Lawrence was actually the first one to bring up the scene as she told Pratt she'd had to take two Pepto-Bismol before they started rolling, but Pratt took things to the next level with his response.
"During our sex scene, I felt your d*ck rubbing into my leg," he said.
The quip caused Lawrence to burst out laughing and prompted her to admit defeat, holding her hand out to shake Pratt's and acknowledge that he'd bested her.

Though the pair were able to joke about the intimate scene in their 2016 movie, Lawrence has previously admitted the moment was 'really bizarre'.
The Hunger Games star had never done a sex scene before, and during The Hollywood Reporter’s awards-season roundtable commented: "I had my first real sex scene a couple weeks ago, and it was really bizarre. It was really weird.”
“It was going to be my first time kissing a married man, and guilt is the worst feeling in your stomach,” Lawrence continued. “And I knew it was my job, but I couldn’t tell my stomach that. You want to do it real, you want everything to be real, but then . . . That was the most vulnerable I’ve ever been.”
Passengers is available to buy and stream on various streaming service.
