It Was Brad Pitt's Idea to Remove His Shirt Like That in 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood'

Brad Pitt‘s shirtless scene in the Oscar-winning movie Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is definitely one of the most memorable moments in the film for some fans.

Now, director Quentin Tarantino is opening up about how that scene came to be!

Originally, Quentin wanted Brad to unbutton his Hawaiian shirt and then peel off his undershirt, but it was Brad‘s choice to take them both off at the same time.

“You know, so it’s like uh, um, I go, ‘Okay, so I’m thinking maybe like, you know, okay, you unbutton, you unbutton the Hawaiian shirt, and peel that off’,” Quentin said on the 3 Girls, 1 Keith podcast. “And then peel off the champion t-shirt.” And he’s like, ‘Really? Want me to through all that button bullshit? I just, I just take it off in one big go.’”

Find out what Quentin had to say about the scene being like homoerotica!
