Brie Larson takes the 'Hot Ones' challenge from the comfort of her own home
Watch Next

The pandemic may have halted most TV and film production these past few months, but Hot Ones is making it work remotely. After kicking off season 12 with comedian Tom Segura last week, host Sean Evans walked actress Brie Larson through the hot sauce lineup from the comfort of their respective homes.

While it's not the same as Evans sitting across from his guest to share wings, he still managed to get personal with Larson. During the episode, for example, he asks about her relationship with the paparazzi and about movies to heal a broken heart. The world may be a lot different than this time last year, but at least we still have Hot Ones.
