He further continued, saying, "He just wants to bring light and joy into the world and be around people who are there to have a good time.""You work with many actors, and after a while, you start making notes: ‘I am definitely not working with this person ever again.’ Brad has this list too: the ‘good’ list and the ‘s–t’ list."

While speaking to Variety, Aaron, who previously starred in action films like ‘Kick-Ass’ and ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron,' described Pitt as a "humble and gracious human being."

"He is in a new chapter of his life, I think," he added.

Taylor-Johnson, during the film’s Los Angeles premiere on August 1, detailed getting hospitalised after sustaining gruesome injuries on the sets of ‘Bullet Train’ from a fight scene.

"We were in a fight sequence and I get drop-kicked across the room," the actor informed. "The one sharp bit of the corner where there wasn’t any padding took a chunk out of my hand. And I literally went wham, passed out," the actor told Variety, explaining the incident.

Taylor-Johnson further talked about his implementing a "crazy mad Keto diet" to get a lean body for the film, which caused "low blood sugar levels" due to which he fainted shortly after sustaining a hand injury during the shoot. "When you sign up for a David Leitch movie, you know you gotta get a couple of battle scars, some war wounds," he said.

‘Bullet Train’ is an adaptation of 'Maria Beetle', a Japanese novel by Kōtarō Isaka. Pitt plays an assassin who is on a bullet train from Tokyo to Kyoto on a mission. Alongside Pitt and Taylor-Johnson, the film stars well-known faces like Sandra Bullock, Joey King, Brian Tyree Henry, Zazie Beetz, Michael Shannon, Andrew Koji, and Bad Bunny.
