Carpenter said, ‘Oh, thank you Bowen,’ although when Bowen started singing the song, it clearly wasn’t the same one.
“Yeah, it’s like, ‘Summer’s coming, everyone’s in shorts,’ while Carpenter tries to interject: ‘Oh, that’s not my song, I don’t think so.’
Adds Gyllenhaal: “I’m sure it is, it’s like, ‘Summer, shorts hanging on the boardwalk with all my friends and stuff.'”
Carpenter adds, “Wait, that’s really good, guys,” as Gyllenhaal and Yang sing together, “Board shorts summer!”
In the second trailer, Bowen tells Gyllenhaal that his body in his Road House remake was “incredible.”
Yang added that, “You actually inspired my fitness journey,” as an emotional Gyllenhaal thanks Yang, though he revealed what his “journey” was all about.
‘Yes, it inspired me to stay thin and fat. “I’m not going to do all that, dummy,” Yang said, as Carpenter added, “No, you look so good Bowen,” as Yang thanked him.
In the final promo, Gyllenhaal asks Carpenter where her last name comes from, as the singer responds, “It came out of nowhere,” as Gyllenhaal and Yang laugh.
