Brad Pitt has described Heart of the Beast as the "hardest movie" he's ever made. In a new interview with Collider, the 62-year-old star discussed the physical demands involved in his latest movie. Pitt plays a former Special Forces officer who becomes stranded alongside his combat dog in the Alaskan wilderness, following a plane crash. ”Physically, I would absolutely say this is the hardest movie I've ever made, but also very rewarding," he revealed. When asked to elaborate on the challenges involved in the new David Ayer survival film, Pitt singled out the "extreme conditions" as one of the toughest obstacles he had to overcome. However, he insisted his own struggles make the film more realistic. ”It's not like we could go back to the trailer and dry off or anything," he explained. ”You get in in the morning, you get wet, and you stay wet all day until the end of the day. There is a drudgery involved in that, but at the same time, I've got to say, I believe in it because it informs the scene, it informs the characters, and it informs our movie in the end.” Elsewhere in the interview, Pitt revealed he agreed to star in the film after Ayer sent him the script - and he was deeply touched by the "love story" ending. Heart of the Beast is released in cinemas from 25 September.
