The actor - real name Dwayne Johnson - says getting up close and personal with Steve was a once-in-a-life time experience.
He said: "One of the skills I had to learn and become proficient in is kissing a man. I had never kissed a man. Will Smith did it in his movies, so did Jake Gyllenhaal, and I figured it was my time. So it was me and Steve Carell - fantastic."
The pair are forced to kiss in the movie when Carell's character Maxwell Smart tries to escape Agent 23, played by Johnson, during a fight scene by using the liplock to distract him.
Carell and Johnson star alongside Anne Hathaway in the crime caper.
Hathaway - who has reportedly split from long-term boyfriend Raffaello Follieri - recently revealed she found it tough to stop laughing on set.
She said: "I had to learn how to not look like a goofy idiot, which was the first big challenge. But the biggest challenge was keeping a straight face around Steve Carell."
