Quotes

Brad Pitt

Actor and star of Heart of the Beast

“They make sure that they're having fun, that they're having, that they're cared for, that they're loved, that there's something adventurous for them in that day. They treat them that way, and it was the same for us with Odin, played by Uber.”

“And I just kept a lot of boiled chicken in my pocket, and real good in the middle of a scene, like being emotional and then having to stop and, like, bring us some boiled chicken, and we'd get right back into the scene, right here with me.”
