Brad Pitt accused of ‘volatile’ behavior on set of Legends Of The Fall: Director claims pair had ugly ‘dust-ups’ on set where they ‘yelled, swore and threw chairs’ at each other

Brad Pitt has been accused of ‘volatile’ behavior on set of his 1994 Western film Legends Of The Fall by director Ed Zwick. 

In an excerpt from his new memoir, ‘Hits, Flops, and Other Illusions: My Fortysomething Years in Hollywood’, Zwick, 71, discussed his rocky relationship with the Hollywood heartthrob, 60.

The filmmaker wrote that Pitt ‘can be volatile when riled’, as per excerpt published by Vanity Fair, and ‘would get edgy whenever he was about to shoot a scene that required him to display deep emotion.’ 

He recalled one of their on set ‘dustups’ writing: ‘I don’t know who yelled first, who swore, or who threw the first chair. Me, maybe? But when we looked up, the crew had disappeared. And this wasn’t the last time it happened.’

DailyMail.com has reached out to representatives for Pitt for comment.
