Adam's response
In the video, Adam is seen reacting to a post-screening question asked by one of the audience members, which goes like, “What do you think about [the] crash scenes? They looked pretty harsh, drastic and, I must say, cheesy for me. What do you think?” To this, Adam immediately replied back, “F**k you, I don’t know? Next question.”
Fans reacted to Adam's unexpected response in the comments. One said, "need actors and directors to always have this energy for dumb Q & A questions!" Another said, "This should be the de facto response to terrible audience questions at Q&As." A comment read, "Honestly big Ridley Scott energy? Maybe he rubbed off on Adam while making those 2 movies."
