"We grew up watching the Bad Boys movies and knowing so much about Will's life," he said. "He's so humble and welcoming and we really just created this amazing family on the set. And I'm so grateful for that, he's truly just a total beast." The actor also discussed how generous the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air alum was on the movie set. 

"It was insane," Alexander recalled at the time. "I mean, you'd go into your trailer and he'd have three other gifts—I still have the Apple TV that he got me!"
