Elsewhere in the interview, Chris said that he could never pull off a heist like his character in the new Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves movie, as he has poor planning skills.
The actor said his publicist woke him up mid-flight to respond to a video the internet mistakenly believed showed Styles, 29, spitting on him.
“I was on the plane with my publicist, who says I look like Rachel from Friends (with my current hairstyle), we are flying back from Venice. And I’m sleeping, having a great time on the plane. I love airplanes,’ he explained.
‘And she wakes me up, in a, you know, in a state. She says, “We have to come up with a message about what happened in Venice.” And I’m like “About what?” “About Harry spitting on you.” Which I have no idea what happened. She showed me the thing. In fact, it looks like Harry spit on me. He didn’t spit on me.
Pine recalled that Styles may have told him about a joke everyone had started making about doing press during jet lag.
It comes after Chris revealed what Harry Styles (right) told him at the Venice Film Festival during the infamous spit door moment when he recalled the moment he learned their interactions had gone viral.
‘I think what he said, he leaned in, and I think he said, ‘It’s just words, isn’t it?’ Because we had this little joke, because we’re all out of line, we’re all trying to answer these questions, and sometimes when you’re doing this press stuff, your brain gets all messed up, you know, you start talking gibberish, and we had a joke like, “It’s just words, man.”
At the time, a representative for Pine responded to the ‘spitting’ scandal: “This is a ridiculous story… a complete fabrication and the result of a bizarre online illusion that is clearly misleading and allows for silly speculation.”
“To be clear, Harry Styles did NOT spit on Chris Pine,” he continued.
“There is nothing but respect between these two men, and any suggestion to the contrary is a blatant attempt to create drama that simply isn’t there.”
Pine recalled that Styles may have told him a joke everyone had started making about doing press while jet lagged.
