Last week Jennifer and Chris appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and the Oscar winner praised her leading man for helping her out when she was afraid of the stunt work required for Passengers.
'He’s much, much nicer than me. He’s like a hard worker, he has a good attitude, he’s very positive. I’m just like, “When are we leaving?”' she said.
'And he had to do basically everything because I suffer from paranoia mixed with delusions. So I thought that if I were in a harness I would never be able to bear children. So he took care of all the harness work. He did all of it.'

When Ellen asked Jennifer if she really believed that might happen, she said with a laugh, 'Yes, I'm sick.'
'I put in on for one second and was like, “Hell no.” I mean I had to ultimately do it, I just complained a lot,' she added, before joking that she didn't 'really' know what the part entailed.
Chris agreed that it was hard to give the 'illusion of zero gravity' while sporting a 75lbs spacesuit, saying it was 'tough to figure out'.

Meanwhile Jennifer also discussed how great it was to have Chris's wife Anna Faris and their four-year-old son Jack visit the Passengers set.
'Oh my God, they’re so cute,' Jen said. 'And his son is a genius, and Anna is nice and hilarious.
'And they’re like in love, they look like a Nicholas Sparks novel. You know when you see people who are so happy, it just makes you miserable,' she added with a laugh.
Interesting concept: In the flick, passengers on the spacecraft have voluntarily left Earth
Firm friends: Jennifer and Chris formed a strong bond while working together on the movie
