Troy's (2004) centerpiece is the inevitable duel between Achilles and Hector, Troy's greatest warrior. Brad Pitt and Eric Bana performed the meticulously choreographed fight themselves without using any stunt doubles, rehearsing for months until every move became instinctive before filming.
In a 2004 interview, Pitt said about the accidental hits: "We made a deal with each other that we're just going to go for it. We decided that we would pay off for slight infractions 50 bucks and for major hits, if one of us clobbered the other, it would be 100 bucks."
Bana later showed a faint scar on the right side of his nose. "I've got a little Brad Pitt scar here," he said. "It's called a full-fledged backhand fist to the face. Luckily for us it was probably about 85 percent through that fight sequence because it does dull your confidence."
Asked how much he owed Bana after the six-day shoot, Pitt replied: "750."
SpaceX is now providing precise positional awareness of objects in Earth orbit to all satellite operators for free.
This will greatly reduce the probability of collisions that create orbital debris (space junk) hazards.
It’s cold and rainy in Atlanta. I bought some stuff to cook, I’m finna light all my candles, find me a good Tubi movie to watch. These my favorite type of weekends. 🤍
