The film features a stellar cast, including many big names such as American actress and film producer, Jamie Lee Curtis, and actress Lindsay Lohan.
Melvin couldn't help but jest when Lindsay's name entered the conversation on GMB.
'Adil, you know Lindsay, right? Are you best mates?,' Melvin said.
'When I say things off air, you're not supposed to repeat them,' quipped Adil. 'I had dinner with Lindsay, me and Lindsay had dinner together. She's lovely.'
Kate erupted with questions, in shock over the revelation.
'WHAT?! Stop, how did this happen, where were you?', Kate said, joining the conversation.
'Did you slide in the DM's?,' Melvin added.
Adil clarified: 'It wasn't a date before, you know, it wasn't a date."
The disbelief flowed two-fold for Adil's co-stars. Not only is Lindsay incredibly well-known, but she's also 12 years Adil's junior.
'We had mutual friends and we all went out for dinner,' Adil explained. 'She came along, we sat next to each other and we had a lovely evening. She's absolutely adorable, she's a fantastic human.'

Adil continued to praise the actress: 'Really smart, really intelligent and really well lived. Just great, great to hang out with. Me and Lindz.'
Melvin then changed the topic back to the highly anticipated release of Freakier Friday, though the presenters had far from let the Lindsay news go.
'Will you be watching that, Freakier Friday,' Melvin said to his co-stars.
'I loved the original so yeah, I'll definitely be watching it,' Kate responded. 'And I'll be thinking of the dinner and what might have been.'
Adil ended the segment by saying, 'Lindsay, if you're watching, do get in touch.'
Freakier Friday comes out on August 8.

BBC Breakfast star's secret job revealed and it's worlds away from presenting
BBC Breakfast presenters Charlie Stayt and Naga Munchetty were left in disbelief as they found out what their co-star gets up to away from the morning show BBC Breakfast presenter Charlie Stayt revealed details about his colleague's role away from the programme during Saturday's edition of the early morning show. Charlie and co-presenter Naga Munchetty were back to deliver the weekend's headlines and various features when sports journalist Ben Croucher joined them on the sofa. Ben had been delivering his sports round-up which covered the latest cricket news from the Oval, the AIG Women's Open golf tournament in Porthcawl, the Formula One action at the Hungarian Grand Prix and the British Lions in Australia. Charlie said to him: "Lots to look forward to there Ben. You are a man of many talents I have only recently discovered because you are a fully qualified football referee?" Ben confirmed: "Fully qualified football referee in my spare time - just at the grassroots level, nothing too elaborate.", reports the Express. Naga added: "That's the most important part - that's how it all starts." Ben went on to explain how it was now the beginning of the FA Cup preliminary rounds and he made his FA Cup debut exactly a year ago in an extra preliminary round. He revealed: "I was the man with the flag in front of the benches, getting a bit of grief from the crowd - it was great fun. Honest!". Charlie chuckled before responding: "Really." Ben confirmed: "Yes it was - it was a great experience." Charlie concluded: "It's the beginning of an amazing journey isn't it? For someone somewhere it's going to be an extraordinary time." Ben explained that whilst the FA Cup final might take place in May, the entire process begins the previous August "at the grassroots level", before viewers were treated to a documentary chronicling the history of the massive sporting spectacle. This comes after Friday's BBC Breakfast when Charlie and Naga discussed the heartbreaking death of Graham Thorpe. The cricket icon, who would have turned 56, was being honoured in a special fixture. Following a chat with sports correspondent Mike Bushell, Naga remarked: "You've led us very nicely into talking about the cricket legend Graham Thorpe, who's going to be honored later at the overall test match between England and India in support of the mental health charity, Mind." Charlie added: "The former England and Surrey cricketer will be celebrated on what would have been his 56th birthday. "Graham took his own life in August last year after struggling with anxiety and depression for many years. Our reporter John McGuire has been speaking to Brent's family and loved ones." After the segment, Charlie and Naga chatted with their colleague John, who was at The Oval, about the outstanding career of Graham, who passed away on August 4 last year following his battle with depression and anxiety.

Love Island fans slam show as ‘rigged' as they fear for fan favourite star
LOVE Island fans have been left fearing the show has been 'rigged' as the ex-Islanders make their comeback to vote off one more couple. With five couples all still vying to make it into the ITV2 dating show's final, the past raft of contestants are back to end someone's dream early by collectively voting to dump one pair. 4 4 However, cautious fans have been left panicking that the direction of who they choose to vote off could have been manipulated - and it has left them fearing for one fan-favourite. They think Shakira Khan could be axed over her romance with Harry Cooksley in favour of warring pair Dejon and Meg. Dejon was seen bickering with his girlfriend over the last two episodes with many viewers questioning how they have remained in the villa - especially given that popularity for the pair is low. With one couple already dumped, fans have begun to fear the worst and speculate as to what's to come on Sunday night's show. Writing on X, one viewer said: "Old islanders choosing who to dump days before the final.. Meg and D will still sail to the final when the past few days has shown they aint it!! "Ugh so bloody rigged it's not even funny." Another added: "This is rigged cause no way the ex islanders will dump Meg and Dejon." A third then posted: "I feel like they rigged the votes because they wanted Meg and Dejon to face the old islanders." Before a fourth chimed in to say: "Guys it's so rigged! The producers want Dejon & meg to win." Fearing for Shakira, someone else said online: "istg if the dumped islanders pick Shakira and harry and use harry as a scapegoat…" Love Island fans slam Dejon for 'huge overreaction' as the girls play a trick on the boys As another wrote: "If Shakira, Toni or Yas are dumped by those past islanders istg never use that twist again." The Sun were the first to reveal that many of this year's Islanders would be making a return to the Majorcan villa for the jury trial vote twist. The cast returned to the villa for the always-shocking Islander Jury on Friday and sent this pair packing. In scenes that will air on Sunday night, former cast made their epic returns to make the huge decision. Former Islanders including Harry Cooksley's ex Emma Munro, Billykiss Azeez, and smitten couple Harrison Solomon and Lauren Wood, voted for the couple they wanted to boot. While The Sun can't reveal their identities at this crucial stage of the ITV2 dating show, we can share that Islanders made their decisions having watched back footage and been shocked by what they saw. 4
