During their session, the actor admitted that their 2011 rom-com was pretty darn similar to a certain film.

"I think the first time we really started hanging out is when we shot No Strings together," Kutcher said.

Portman responded, "Who would've thought 20 years later, we'd be on a Peloton together?"

Kutcher then said, "Wait, it's also weird because my wife was shooting the same movie, called Friends With Benefits."
