The tone has seriously risen between the two stars. Josh Brolin And Denzel Washington almost came to blows, on the set ofAmerican Gangsterin 2007.
It's Brolin who tells the story, during the podcast In Depth With Graham Bensinger, that an altercation broke out between them on the set of Ridley Scott. He details:
“Denzel arrived a little late and there was already a whole thing… And then he showed me the script for the day. He hadn't changed my lines strictly speaking, but he had changed the structure sort of. He was like, 'I think I'm going to put this here and this there…' But he wasn't really looking at me and then we start rehearsing before filming. .There wasn't much dialogue. Just a few. lines to say and and I'm supposed to be super confident It's Denzel Washington opposite, man It's not easy.
Oops… While Josh Brolin asks his friend to help him, he nonchalantly places his hand on his shoulder. A gesture that Denzel Washington didn't like it. He slaps and removes his hand and begins to shout: “Don’t you ever fucking put your hand on me!” »
Josh Brolin remembers thinking: “Damn, I'm going to fight with it Denzel Washington. It's crazy! For me we are no longer actors at this moment. At least in my mind. He was just playing his character. He was Frank Lucas, period. But I didn't know that. And then we got over that moment. I said, “Are you okay?” » He said, “Yeah. And you ? » I said, “Yeah… Can I have my line?” » He said OK and it's like nothing happened…”
According to Josh Brolinthe two get along “very good today“.
