What happens when Rami Malek, Denzel Washington, and Jared Leto get together? A movie like 2021’s The Little Things is born. Although the crime thriller was not as successful of a venture, neither a commercial nor critically successful, it did bring together the three incredible actors, resulting in some hilarious off-screen moments.

It is not quite often a feat seen in the film industry to have three Oscar-winning actors lead a film. But in 2021, Oscar-winning actors Denzel Washington, Rami Malek, and Jared Leto collaborated in John Lee Hancock Jr.’s neo-noir crime thriller, The Little Things. While the film failed to woo the audience or critics, it did lead to some impeccable off-screen moments between the lead stars.
During an old online interview with Kevin McCarthy, the actors showcased their amazing off-screen chemistry. In the video posted recently by McCarthy himself on Instagram, McCarthy asked them all where they each kept their respective Oscars Award trophies, and this is how the conversation went:
Denzel Washington: Here’s the most egotistical answer you can ever get. People say, ‘Where do you keep your Oscar?’ I said, ‘Next to the other one.’
The multiple times Academy Award-nominee and two-time Oscar-winner revealed as both of his co-stars laughed. When it came to Malek to answer, the actor had the wittiest answer,
Rami Malek: By itself.
Malek, known for his award-winning performance in Bohemian Rhapsody, delivered the clever quip, leaving the Training Day star wheezing with laughter, as Leto revealed he doesn’t even remember where his Oscar trophy is. The video of this charming exchange has since gone viral, making fans praise Malek’s witty response.
