Clooney and Pittrolled out the film at the Venice Film Festival, where it had its world premiere.
The costars and real-life pals recentlytoldGQabout their shared “competitive nature” and how “talking s— between takes” helps their onscreen banter, according to Pitt.
Said Clooney, “There’s a very interesting thing that happens when you’ve been working together a long time where, I don’t have to be looking even near him to know what he’s doing and have some idea of what’s going on. And there’s a great ease to that and confidence where you just go, ‘Oh yeah, I know what he’s going to do.’ "
