The pair spent Thursday together watching the United States face off with Turkey in a hard-fought 3-2 game. The United States lost, but this became less important to people who watched Tyler Durden "talking to himself."

Norton played the main character of the 1999 film, an unnamed insomniac who struggles in his corporate job. Pitt played his constant companion, a soap salesman named Tyler Durden.
Together, they start an underground fight club. Although it turns into a nationwide anti-capitalist group that ultimately blows up multiple skyscrapers.
Of course, the film eventually reveals that Durden only exists in Norton's mind. They are the same person, but Pitt's version of Durden just takes over at times.
The two have a final confrontation before Norton uses a handgun to shoot himself in the cheek and remove the other personality. He and romantic interest Marla (Helena Bonham Carter) watch the skyscrapers fall as the Pixies song Where is My Mind plays.
"I just see Edward Norton talking to himself..." one person wrote on X after seeing the footage of the two actors. Many others joined in with similar comments. Some even used photo editing software to remove Pitt.
Some people, however, just made comments about how this was a tired joke and that they didn't need to see it posted over and over again.
The conversations continued throughout the match as Turkey ultimately defeated the United States 3-2. Now, the two teams will move forward with other World Cup matches.
The United States will next face Bosnia on July 1 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. This match will take place in the Round of 32. Turkey, however, will not continue after already being eliminated from the World Cup.
