George Clooney and I are competitive with each other: Brad Pitt

LONDON: Brad Pitt says he and close friend George Clooney are competitive with each other when it comes to their production companies.

The actors often find themselves bidding against each other on books they want to adapt into movies, including Pitt's latest project "The Big Short", reported Female First.

"In all fairness, he outbid me on 'Argo'.

But, yeah, it can get competitive.

We do naturally have a lot of the same tastes and interests.

With 'The Big Short', I think maybe we got the upper hand at auction because [author] Michael Lewis and I got tight on 'Moneyball'," Pitt, 51, said.
