"I saw the billboards. They're wearing tuxedos so you know it's going to be classy," Ferrell said.

Reynolds also played You Have to Stop with Fallon. The skit involved the pair listing things that people should stop doing, like checking TikTok before bed.

"You have to stop whispering, 'That looks good' at the movies after every trailer. 'Oh that looks good.' We know it looks good. That's the job of the trailer, to make the movie look good. Even bad movies have good trailers. I've been in some of them," Reynolds said.

Ferrell joined Kimmel to conduct science experiments with Science Bob Pflugfelder. Ferrell and Kimmel were able to make hot dogs float and cooked them using blow torches.

Red Notice comes to Netflix on Friday. The Shrink Next Door premieres Friday on Apple TV+.
