Brad Pitt wasn’t director Edward Zwick’s first choice for the role of the charming rebel Tristan in the 1994 drama “Legends of the Fall.” In his memoir “Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions” (via Vanity Fair), Zwick revealed that Pitt only got the part because his rumored rival Tom Cruise turned it down. Pitt didn’t yet have years of box office success behind him to boost his ego, but according to Zwick, he acted like a bit of a diva during filming. 

When Pitt didn’t like the way a table read went, he tried to exit the film. “He can be volatile when riled,” Zwick wrote. He also recalled growing frustrated because Pitt wasn’t being receptive to his feedback, which resulted in the two regularly getting into screaming matches. On at least one occasion, chairs were thrown. “Eventually the crew grew accustomed to our dustups,” Zwick penned, adding that he and Pitt always made up afterward.

According to Express, Pitt stubbornly refused to kiss actor Megan Brown while filming “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” supposedly because he didn’t want to make then-partner Angelina Jolie jealous. However, he did ultimately shoot the kissing scene. The National Enquirer’s Mike Walker also claimed that Pitt refused to film “Ocean’s Thirteen” if Catherine Zeta-Jones was in the movie because he was upset about her husband, Michael Douglas, criticizing him for divorcing Jennifer Aniston and dating Jolie (via the National Ledger). Pitt’s rep denied the report.
