Scott Eastwood has a bone to pick with Shia LaBeouf.
During an appearance on Dax Shepard’s "Armchair Expert" podcast, the actor, 40, opened up about a "tense" on-set moment during the filming of the 2014 film, "Fury," in which he nearly got into a physical altercation with the former Disney star.
"There was sort of an incident that happened," Eastwood, 40, said. "I’ve talked about it. Brad Pitt sort of broke up a little, a tense moment."
Eastwood explained that LaBeouf — who played tank gunner Boyd "Bible" Swan in the World War ll movie — was a "very method" actor, who pulled out his tooth and cut himself at one point.
"And I remember thinking, ‘OK, this guy’s crazy. I’m just going to keep clear from this guy.’ I don’t play this game. You go and do that, but there’s plenty of ways to do a performance in a movie and be professional also, right?"

Eastwood claimed that LaBeouf wasn't impressed with his decision of "spitting tobacco on the tank," an action that was written in the script.
"And then finally, I just said, ‘Enough’s enough.’ I said, ‘Hey, f--- you.’ I said, ‘Stop pulling your s---.’ I said, ‘I’m going to whoop your a--,’" he continued. "And then, you know, he got … And then everyone broke it up."
This isn't the first time Eastwood has called out a Hollywood actor.
During a recent appearance on "The Joe Rogan Experience" podcast, Eastwood recalled working with an unnamed celebrity who abruptly walked away from a film after production was already underway, leaving the cast and crew left scrambling.
"Without saying any names ... people get too famous for too long. They think the world owes them something," Eastwood said.
