Watch: Brad Pitt Dishes on Leading "Fury" Men

It's no secret that the stars of Fury grew to know and love one another by the end of their time filming the war flick.

Both Brad Pitt and Shia LaBeouf have been especially vocal about the bond that was created on the movie set, showering one another with endless, public accolades during promotions for the film.

Angelina Jolie's husband continued to praise his co-stars to E! News at the London premiere of Fury, telling us that it was his "responsibility as the commander" to keep the other actors in check.

"Through all of the training we went through, we started to really understand each other's strengths and weaknesses," he shared.

"I couldn't bitch and complain, they could, [but] I had to earn their respect…I love those boys, I will always love those boys."

Pitt also admitted that it wasn't easy to shake off his character when he went home to his six children at night.

"It was a very intense experience," he told us. "I want my kids to understand that it's a beautiful world, but it's also a violent world and to be prepared for both."

Meanwhile, we caught up with LaBeouf on the red carpet who addressed how he had his tooth pulled for his role in the movie.

"Any corner I can cut in terms of having to act I will [take]," he joked.

Logan Lerman first revealed his co-star's strange lengths to get into character to British GQ earlier this fall.

"He did go to a dentist and asked them to pull his tooth out, but yeah, what an odd request," Lerman recalled (LaBeouf tweeted a selfie showing off his missing tooth in the beginning of this year).

Now that's taking method acting to a new level.
