Brad Pitt has revealed the “paradoxical” method used to shoot his most recent box office hit.

In the new movie Bullet Train, the Hollywood actor, who first gained fame in the roles of Mr. and Mrs. Smith and 12 Monkeys, plays the humorous assassin Ladybug.

Pitt, 58, discussed the process of employing humour while portraying a talented but exhausted agent who is determined to carry out his work calmly after one too many gigs has gone awry in an interview with the PA news agency at the UK screening of the movie.

Just get off the train. Easy, right?

“And he just infused his comedy with the old ultra-violence and that was hilarious.

“I know it’s paradoxical!”
