Amy Schumer jokingly claimed that John Cena was “actually inside her” while filming their intimate scene in the 2015 comedy Trainwreck. In the film, Schumer portrayed a commitment-averse woman who becomes involved with Cena’s character, Steven, a fitness-obsessed gym enthusiast.
Cena acknowledged the awkwardness of the scene during a 2015 interview on Conan, saying, “They wanted it to be awkward, so we delivered.” Speaking later on Club Shay Shay, he praised Schumer for making the set feel comfortable but admitted the reality of filming was anything but intimate: “Catering was right there, the sound tent was right there… It was really embarrassing.”
After hearing Cena’s remarks, Schumer humorously responded on Instagram, saying, “That scene meant a lot to me, I was really into it… and I’m in love with you.”
