"I promise we're going to do our best to do you guys justice. What Joe [Kosinski] can do with the camera and how we can show speed, we can show G-force. And I'm really excited about this one," said Brad Pitt.
Idris then joked: "I will say, I will go flat through Abbey and Copse, so I'll try not to make you look too slow."
