Brad Pitt’sTroyCo-star Resorted to Ridiculous Measures to Get Money After Blowing It All On Gambling
Brad Pitt was part of the classic filmTroy, alongside Peter O’Toole, who portrayed the role of Priam in the film. Having spent nine months filming in the desert of Jordan, Peter O’Toole recalled engaging in gambling with his fellowLawrence of Arabiaco-star Omar Sharif.
While speaking in an oldinterview, Peter O’Toole reminisced about him and Sharif losing every penny they had earned from working nine months in the desert in just a few hours. This situation led them to attempt to sell their passports.

”I mean Omar Shariff is a compulsive gambler. I know he won’t mind me saying this, because he knows he is. When we shared digs together, which we did for over two years, it was like living with a younger version of my father. There was one point where Omar and I, we were in Beirut. And in a few hours, we lost every penny that we’d earned for 9 months in the desert and we were in the lavotary trying to sell our passports.”
Later on in the interview, O’Toole revealed that the two found themselves in the company of a “rather distinguished, honorable politician,” who, according to the actor, “came up with a few dibs and saved our bacon.” However, they didn’t really learn anything from their plight, as they would end up being in a similar situation the next year in Casablanca. The difference was that they lost their money in a couple of days that time.

When he shared this idea with French director Luc Besson, Besson stated, “You are one of the few directors who makes me want to go to the movies.”This feedback influenced Quentin Tarantino’s decision to turn the material into a film instead and the rest, as we say, is history.
