Quentin Tarantino Vs. Brad Pitt: Co-star recalls onset fight
A behind-the-scenes clash between Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino on the set of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood has been revealed, and it sounds like it was quite the moment.
The story comes courtesy of Bruce Dern, 89, who played elderly ranch owner George Spahn in the 2019 film and was present when the confrontation unfolded.
Dern told PEOPLE that the incident occurred during the scene in which Pitt’s character Cliff Booth visits the ranch to check on George, a moment that featured one of Dern’s signature improvised dialogues, which he cheerfully refers to as a “Dernsie.”
Mid-scene, as Dern was doing his thing, Pitt did something that no actor is supposed to do on a Tarantino set.
He called cut.
“I’m looking at him. [Pitt] cut the camera,” Dern recalled. “The look on Quentin’s face, I mean, he was insanely grave, and he said, ‘Brad, what did you just do?'”
Tarantino’s response was unambiguous.
“He said, ‘Well, I cut the camera.’ He said, ‘Never again in your life will you ever cut a camera or you’ll be dead in this business. That’s my domain. Don’t stop behavior.'”
Pitt’s defence, Dern revealed, was straightforward if not exactly well-received: “All Brad did was say to him, ‘Well, that wasn’t in the script what he said.'”
The implication being that Dern’s improvisation had thrown him, which, given that a “Dernsie” can apparently happen at any moment, is perhaps understandable, if not forgivable in Tarantino’s eyes.
Filming resumed, and Dern delivered a new improvised line for the ages: “I don’t know who you are, but you touched me today. You came to visit me, now I gotta go back to sleep.”
Pitt went on to win the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for the role.
Despite the friction on set, the relationship between director and star has clearly survived.
A source told the Daily Mail that Tarantino ranks among Pitt’s favourite directors and that the two share a strong rapport. Representatives for both have been contacted for comment.
Au revoir, Emily Cooper.
After years of love triangles, fashion moments and chaotic career pivots across Europe, Emily in Paris is officially heading toward its final chapter. Netflix confirmed on May 21 that the upcoming sixth season, set to premiere on December 17, of the hit series will also be its last.
The announcement came as production kicked off in Greece, with creator Darren Star reflecting on the show’s run in a heartfelt statement.
“Making Emily in Paris with this extraordinary cast and crew has been the trip of a lifetime,” Star shared. “As we embark on the final season, I am so grateful to Netflix, Paramount and, most importantly, the fans who have taken this incredible journey with us.”
“We can’t wait to share this last chapter with you. Thank you for letting us be a part of your lives, inspiring your dreams of travel and your love of Paris. We will always have Emily in Paris!”
Series star Lily Collins also addressed fans in a video shared online alongside behind-the-scenes footage from set.
“Hey, it’s Lily, I just wanted to share something with you all,” Collins said. “After six unforgettable years of playing Emily Cooper, I’m here to share that this upcoming sixth season will be our final.”
She continued, “Season 6 will bring you everything you love about the show and serve as the final chapter in Emily’s adventure of a lifetime.”
The Netflix hit first premiered in 2020 and quickly became one of the platform’s biggest comfort-watch sensations. Season 6 will reportedly film in Greece and Monaco as Emily’s European adventure comes to a close.

Dua Lipa has given fans one final gift from her Radical Optimism era, a concert film and live album capturing the closing nights of one of her biggest tours to date.
Live From Mexico is out now on YouTube, with the accompanying live album dropping on streaming platforms on 22 May.
Physical copies are available to pre-order, with shipping beginning on 5 June.
The film was recorded across three sold-out nights at Mexico City’s Estadio GNP Seguros, where Lipa brought her 92-date world tour to a close in December 2025.
The release runs through some of her biggest moments, including Houdini, Levitating and Don’t Start Now, and captures the atmosphere that made the Radical Optimism tour one of the landmark pop runs of recent years.
Over the course of the trek, Lipa performed across five continents and sold over 1.75 million tickets.
The Mexico City shows also featured a special duet with Maná frontman Fher Olvera on the band’s 1992 classic Oye Mi Amor, a moment that resonated deeply with the local crowd.
In the film’s trailer, Lipa addresses the audience with visible emotion.
“This tour has been the most beautiful and fulfilling experience of my career so far,” she says. “You’ve built something bigger than a show. You’ve built a family and I feel that every single night.”
She was equally heartfelt in the Instagram post accompanying the release.
“2 of the most special years wrapped up into 2 hours.. the end of an era,” she wrote.
“I hope watching and listening to this shows the euphoria, the love, the blood sweat and tears and most importantly the radical optimism (!!) that we all shared on this tour, we will have it forever now so thank you!!!!!”
For fans who were there, it’s a chance to relive it. For those who weren’t, it’s the next best thing.
