Brad Pitt Isn't a Cruise-Slamming 'Basterd'

By PopEater Staff Posted Aug 24th 2009 01:54PM

Last week, reports swirled that 'Inglorious Basterds' star Brad Pitt was quoted in a German magazine saying that Tom Cruise's 'Valkyrie' was a "ridiculous" movie, a jab that seemed quite out of character for the normally class-act Pitt. Perhaps something got lost in translation, because Pitt's rep says it's totally bogus.

Pitt's manager tells PEOPLE that the report is "inaccurate," and that the 'Inglorious Basterds' star "has never even seen 'Valkyrie.'"

Both 'Valkyrie' and 'Basterds' feature Nazis, but the similarities stop there. 'Valkyrie' featured Cruise in a serious tale about an internal Nazi plot to kill Adolf Hitler. Pitt's 'Basterds' is a fantasy film about a rogue troop of soldiers who brutally scalp Nazis.

This past weekend, 'Basterds' opened up by taking in $37.6 million, the most director Quentin Tarantino has ever pulled in for an opening weekend.
