Brad Pitt said he was left red faced when he realised the nude scene he had agreed to do was one where he was on his own.

He said director Wolfgang Petersen had neglected to mention this small detail when he asked about Brad getting naked for his role as Achilles in the film "Troy".

Pitt, 40, told Financial Times Germany: "He didn't tell me I'd be the only one having to take off all my clothes," said Pitt.

However, after his initial surprise Pitt warmed to the idea because he saw that it was important for the film.

"It was important to take off my clothes for the role," said Pitt. "After all, the Greeks were naked quite a lot."
