Damson Idris revealed he accidentally spat on Brad Pitt’s face during filming a ‘rageful scene’ for their new movie F1.
In the latest appearance on the June 18 episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Idris shared that for a moment he thought he had lost his job after the accidental spitting on his on-screen mentor.
“It’s so funny working with Brad. He’s such a beautiful human being, such a giving actor. And we once did a scene where I had to scream in his face, and it was like the biggest scene for me. I was so nervous,” Damson began.
“In between the takes, I spat in Brad Pitt’s face,” he confessed.
The Snowfall alum explained, “It was an accident. It was a rageful scene.”
Idris said he “watched the spit go to Brad.”
But, Pitt responded with grace, and “kept going.”
Idris noted, “And in my head I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh. I just spat on Brad Pitt’s face.’ I was like, ‘I’m going to lose my job now.’ And I watched the spit the whole take, it was just there dribbling down.”
