Brad Pitt has a reputation for being a caring, compassionate colleague and a joy to work with. However, it turns out that Brad's kindness hasn't always been reciprocated.

According to a recent interview with Brad's Bullet Train co-star, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Brad isn't one to forget a grievance. It turns out that he actually keeps a list of actors' names whom he'll never work with again.

Brad Pitt has been in the game for a long time.

It's been more than 30 years since Brad's big break in Thelma and Louise. Since that time, he's gone on to become one of the most respected and sought-after leading men in Hollywood.

Part of what has made Brad so successful is that he understands the need to surround himself with good people.

Whether you're an A-list celebrity or an average Joe working a 9-5, it's important to like the people you work with.

So in order to ensure that his work environment is as positive and productive as it can be, Brad began to take notes.

"He just wants to bring light and joy into the world and be around people who are there to have a good time," Brad's Bullet Train co-star, Aaron Taylor-Johnson told Variety.

"You work with many actors and after a while, you start making notes: 'I am definitely not working with this person ever again.'"

"Brad has this list too," Aaron explained. "The good list and the [expletive] list."

If this is the case, then the obvious question is a rather simple one — just who is on Brad's [expletive] list?

While Brad isn't one to name names, a careful look at his resume reveals a lot.

One such name is Scott Eastwood. While filming a scene for Fury, Eastwood allegedly spit tobacco juice onto a tank that fellow actor Shia Labeouf was riding in. A heated argument ensued, and Brad had to break it up.

Another actor whom Brad Pitt is unlikely to work with again is 'Top Gun: Maverick' star, Tom Cruise.

Tom and Brad starred opposite one another in Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles. "You gotta understand, Tom and I are... we walk in different directions," Pitt told Premiere in 1995. "He's North Pole. I'm South."

Speaking of walking in different directions, Harrison Ford is yet another name Brad seems unenthused about working with in the future.

While filming The Devil's Own, rumors abound that Brad and Harrison let their egos get the better of them. To this day, Brad calls it the hardest film he's ever worked on.

French movie star, Marion Cotillard, is an actress whom Brad seems intent on distancing himself from.

This is mainly due to the fact that there was a rumor going around that Marion and Brad were having an affair while filming Allied.

The story broke after Angelina Jolie allegedly hired a private detective, who later uncovered the illicit affair.

"She hired a private eye because she felt that he was fooling around with her on the set," a source told The Post, "and it turns out, he was. And that was the final straw."

While we're on the subject, Angelina Jolie seems like the most obvious choice to be atop Brad's [expletive] list.

Most men and women don't make a habit of consorting with their ex — especially when they're in the midst of a very messy and public divorce.

It should be reiterated that this list is purely speculative.

However, Brad Pitt is one of the few actors who doesn't have many enemies. Therefore, if his [expletive] list does exist, it would be difficult to imagine anyone other than these names being on it.
