Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio return to this milestone

Once again we see cases in Hollywood where actors don’t believe in a specific project until you see it as a whole. This was what I did with Mystery in the mountains (Brokeback Mountain in English), a film that went through film history in reverse, telling the story of two gay vaqueros in an era when no one spoke about the subject.

Given the star presence of Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal, many strangers wore their belts during pre-production. The film was difficult before it was released in theatersinformation revealed by Gus Van Sant (the original director to helm the project) as stated in an interview with Diversity

in 2018 the following:

“Nadi wanted to make a film. I was working on it and felt that we needed a very strong list, like a celebrity list. He did not work. I asked the usual candidates: Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Ryan. Philip. Everyone said NO“

Diana Ossana, the film’s producer, confirmed the information in a conversation with IndieWireHowever, I did not specify the reasons why Pitt and the others returned the invitation. “Yes, all these young riders took part in the project for different reasons.“, he decreed.

Why would anyone want to be in this movie?

Given the speculation, it is known that Josh Hartnett did not make the list due to an agenda conflict with Black Dahlia2006 political film. Matt Damon made a suggestion not to believe in the plotThe fact is that the actor admitted that he complained.

Despite many negative aspects, Gus Van Sant turned down production to become the director of the acclaimed film. Milk. So Ang Lee took over Mystery in the mountains

pitting Ledger and Gyllenhaal against each other making history.

The film turned into one of the most successful films ever made. Nominated in the first category of the 2006 Oscars., including Best Actor and Best Actor for Reparto for Ledger and Gyllenhaal, respectively. Ang Lee won the award for Best Director.
