Want to know what working with Brad Pitt is like?

"His presence kind of takes up all the energy in the room," Pitt's Moneyball costar Chris Pratt told us at last night's premiere of Take Me Home Tonight in L.A.

However...

"Once you get past that he's really just a kind of down-to-earth normal guy," Pratt said. "Pretty open about talking about his life. He's a megastar. Maybe the biggest star in the world and he's pretty cool."

In Moneyball, based on the book by the same name, Pitt stars alongside Robin Wright and Philip Seymour Hoffman as Oakland A's general manager Billy Beane.

"You see him on set and there's that part of you that's like, 'Keep cool, that's Brad Pitt!' " Pratt said. "He's kind of exactly like what you would hope, which is just really awesome."

As for getting to meet Pitt's famous fam, Pratt says he wasn't too nervous when Jolie brought their beautiful brood to set. "Well, I worked with her on a movie called Wanted so I got to meet her before," he explained. "But they were there with their kids and I mean, still it was pretty wild. At the end of the day, it's Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. You're like, 'Holy crap! That's crazy.' "
