While appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Donald Glover revealed that Brad Pitt wasn’t particularly helpful in a conversation they had about Glover starring in a new TV adaptation of Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
“He didn’t give me any real pointers,” Glover said. “He kind of Brad Pitt-ed his way out of it. He just kind of like charmed his way. He was like, ‘Yeah, you know, you’ll do great.'”
Glover certainly could have used some guidance, since he also admitted to Fallon that before joining the spy thriller, he had never seen the 2005 movie. “I hadn’t at the time,” he said. “I’ve seen it, obviously, by now. It’d be scary if I hadn’t. It’d be like, ‘Oh, that’s what this is about? Spies?'”
