During a press tour for the movie The 355, Sebastian Stan revealed a longtime secret. In a viral video posted by co-star, Jessica Chastain, the Marvel Cinematic Universe actor said he once stole money from his grandmother's purse.
In The 355, Chastain portrays Mason Brown — a CIA agent that must bring the unlikely and well trained agents together from around the globe in order to keep the world safe. The star-studded cast features Lupita Nyong'o, Fan Bingbing, Diane Kruger, and Penelope Cruz.
In an interview conducted by Paul's Trip to the Movies, Chastain discussed the role she had putting the movie together with director Simon Kinberg. She explained how she felt the need to be responsible for many things while making the film, including doing all her own stunts.
"I did everything. I jumped off the buildings, I did all the fights," she said. Chastain is also credited as one of the producers. While impressive, it's the game she played with Stan that got the internet's attention.
Shown in the viral video posted to TikTok, Chastain and Stan took part in "The 355 Challenge." Similar to "Never Have I Ever," both stars put five fingers up. Chastain read a slew of sentences from a piece of paper, and if either of them have done that statement, they put a finger down.
Chastain said, "Put a finger down if you have ever stolen anything without getting caught."
Stan chimed in. "I stole some money from my grandmother's purse when I was 7-years-old, he said, laughing. "I think, in Romania."
Another phrase to note was whether either has lied to someone they've loved. "Of course. We've all lied to someone we love at some point," Chastain admitted.
Fans of Stan expressed their love for the 39-year-old actor in the comments section despite his surprising "truth."
"Sebastian Stan, man you're looking good. Man oh man let me tell you something. You ever see a guy this handsome walking the street?" exclaimed user, @Jess with the top comment at more than 26k likes.
"I did not expect to open up Tiktok to this everyone say thank you jessica," wrote @Emily.
@Jaz added, "At first I was like oh look Sebastian Stan and then i was like WAIT IT'S SEBASTIAN STAN"
Chastain encouraged users to take part in the rising trend by using the audio or duetting the video to share. The hashtag "The 355 Challenge" has over 88k videos with people sharing their answers.
The 355 arrives in theaters January 7th.
