The Han Solo star mentioned that he found the filming process bizarre and that he did not have a critical scene. He said to Entertainment Tonight (viaNME),

It was bizarre. They weren’t all in the scene I did. It was just what’s his name and the applesauce girl [Christina Applegate]…It’s easy enough to cut out. It’s not critical.

The actor was definitely wrong because the scene makes the already whacky battle sequence all the more crazy as he turns into a monster in the middle of Central Park.

Anchorman 2: The Legend Continuesis available to stream on Fubo TV.
