Brad Pitt recalled an embarrassing on-set mishap during his early filming days.
Pitt is starring as Sonny Hayes a retired Formula 1 driver who returns to the track to train a young prodigy Joshua Pearce (Damson Idris), in F1.
In the recent podcast episode of New Heights hosted by Jason and Travis Kelce, The Troy star talked about F1 success and other highlights of his career.
During the conversation, the Kelce brothers asked the actor about the best food he has eaten for a scene.
While Pitt laughed at his reputation for eating in his movies, he shared that his favourite dish on set was an ice cream sundae. He also revealed an awkward experience that he had while eating for a scene.
The Once Upon A Time in Hollywood actor revealed that he was shooting a scene in a cramped café with 60 people on set during one of his early days of joining the film industry.
Pitt shared his character was supposed to shove a big plate of beans and bacon for the scene because his character hadn't eaten for days. He decided to go "method" by pounding all of the food.
"I just powered down this plate of beans," he said. "Take two, do the same thing. Take three, I do the same thing. Take four, I do the same thing."
He added, "Something hit me. There was nothing I could do. I was stuck in this chair, nature took its course."
Pitt thought he got away with passing gas on set, but soon, the entire crew "fled the cafe."
He added, "Ever since then, I pace myself."
Pitt didn't specify which movie set this incident took place on, although he did eat baked beans in 1991's Johnny Suede.
His newly released F1 is now running in theatres.
