Geena Davis on Falling in Love With Susan Sarandon and Choosing Brad Pitt for 'Thelma & Louise' (Exclusive)

Geena Davis sat down with ET and chatted about her 'Thelma & Louise' co-stars, Susan Sarandon and Brad Pitt.

Davis has previously shared that Pitt, throughout the casting process, was in stiff competition as she also read with Mark Ruffalo, George Clooney and Melrose Place star Grant Show before inadvertently picking the Moneyball actor, 60, for the part. Thelma & Louise-- helmed by Alien and Blade Runner director Ridley Scott -- became a runaway hit for the actresses and creative minds, including writer Callie Khouri, who went on to win the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay in 1992. For Davis, who already won an Academy Award for Best Actress in The Accidental Tourist, Thelma & Louise will forever be a film that she categorizes as one of the most important in her career, especially looking back some 33 years later.
