Fight Club(1999) actor Brad Pitt couldn’t gush enough about one of his co-stars that he thought pushed his boundaries while performing for a scene like no other. But, who exactly did he talk about? Over his long film career, Pitt has worked with countless stars following his breakthrough appearance in Ridley Scott’sThelma & Louisein 1991.
Four years later, for example, he was sharing the screen with the likes of Morgan Freeman inSe7en(1995).While Freeman did give unhinged performances inStreet Smart(1987),Glory,andLean on Mein 1989, by the timeSe7encame out he’d become an actor who let others shine; it’s also the only film he made with Pitt.
After getting the much-needed boost withSe7en,Pitt would go on to give many hits. But, another star was rising the ranks alongside him and was building up a portfolio with big names like James Cameron, Steven Spielberg, and Martin Scorsese. He’s none other than theTitanicstar Leonardo DiCaprio, who worked with Pitt in Quentin Tarantino’sOnce Upon a Time in Hollywoodin 2019.

Brad Pitt On Leonardo DiCaprio’s Unhinged Performance
Talking to InStyle,Brad Pittclaimed that DiCaprio could dial up his acting as much as he could and that he always pushed it to the edge. While it can’t be denied that the former did have a point as we’ve seen how DiCaprio loses himself in a role. It’s what got him an Oscar forThe Revenant(2015).
TheTitanicstar, while filming forQuentin Tarantino’sDjango UnchainedalongsideJamie Foxx, injured his hand during a scene but didn’t break character, according to reports.
“He’s so committed,”Pitt toldInStyle.“Like within a scene. You can play a scene at level one or 11, and he’s always pushing for the edge. He’s not protecting himself in any way.”
Not only that, but Pitt showed his support for DiCaprio while taking an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in 2020 by saying,“Leo, I’ll ride on your coattails any day, man. The view’s fantastic.”
