Brad Pitt says he nearly got fired as an extra for improvising a line to get his SAG card on a Charlie Sheen movie set: “I get this gig, I’m an extra in this movie. I land this role as extra. But the funny thing when I started, I put them on like a resume like they were real, and it still haunts me!”  “It’s a restaurant scene and the main characters are Charlie Sheen and D.B. Sweeney, and a bunch of other actors. I am the waiter I'm supposed to bring up champagne and pour champagne.” “They show me how to do it: you gotta pour, you spin, you wipe the thing”  “The whole game was, how do you get your SAG card? Because you can’t get a job if you don't have your SAG card, but you can’t get your SAG card unless you've had a job.” “You need to r was the barrier of entry”  “Like a jackass, they’re doing the scene, and I get to the last actor. She seemed lower on the totem pole, and I thought, ‘Maybe?’ And literally, the scene is going on, I pour her champagne, and I go: ‘Would you like anything else?’”  “It was, ‘CUT! CUT! CUT!’ First AD runs over: ‘You do that again, you’re out of here!’ And it was just shame for the rest of the night”
