Melbourne, Sept 21 (ANI): American actors Brad Pitt and George Clooney were once the best of mates, but it took only a role in the remake of 'My Fair Lady' to bust them apart.
The two Hollywood heartthrobs, who have been quite successful with their reunion in their latest movie 'Burn After Reading', are now fighting over who gets to play the role of Henry Higgins in the remake of the classic.
"We both badly want a particular role and neither is backing down,'' News.com.au quoted Clooney as having told a friend.
For Pitt, landing the role of Henry Higgins would be a dream come true, as he has been fascinated by the story since he was a child, and he has even gone so far as to tell Clooney to back down and give the role to him.
The 'Troy' star is so enthusiastic about the movie that he wants his wife actress Angelina Jolie to play the part of Eliza Doolittle.
But Clooney has no intentions of backing down, as he too is eager to land the role.
"It's sort of become an intense competition between us now and it just keeps escalating. For now we're both so angry we're not even in contact any more,'' Clooney added.
The feud between Pitt, 44, and Clooney, 47, has definitely turned their previously united front around. (ANI)
