During an interview with Jimmy Fallon, Logan Lerman mentioned that he and Chris Hemsworth met at a gym in Prague, where the two would work out. He described the experience as,

''There's nothing more emasculating than working out with Chris Hemsworth.''

Lerman said that Hemsworth ''had no idea'' who Lerman was and assumed he was a stuntman. Lerman, however, did not correct him and continued the conversation with him. He also said that Hemsworth still does not know who he is.

Logan Lerman also spoke at length about working with the legendary Al Pacino, who was also present during the interview, in Prime Video's Hunters. He said,

''Oh my god! Can you...I mean, c'mon, it's incredible! He's, like, the greatest that's ever done it. The best actor ever. And I just was so excited when I found out and to be able to spend so much time with you (speaking to Al Pacino) has been one of the greatest joys, experiences of my life.''

Logan Lerman plays the role of Jonah Heidelbaum in Hunters, while Al Pacino portrays the character Meyer Offerman in the show. Apart from Hunters, Lerman has appeared in the iconic Percy Jackson franchise, The Vanishing of Sidney Hall, and Jack & Bobby, to name a few.
