But that wasn't all...

He also hit the red carpet to chat with Jennifer and the rest of the cast. Since The Five-Star Weekend is streaming on Hayu, we had to ask the stars an important question: which Hayu TV shows are they secretly obsessed with?

The answers did not disappoint.

From Hayu favourites to guilty-pleasure binge watches, the cast revealed the reality series they can't stop watching when the cameras aren't rolling.

As she reunites women from different chapters of her life for a weekend getaway, long-held secrets, tensions and unexpected revelations begin to surface.

With an all-star cast led by Jennifer Garner, this is shaping up to be one of the must-watch series of the year.
