Gordon Ramsay taught Bradley Cooper how to swear for a movie role.
The 'F Word' star met with the Hollywood hunk in London and Venice to advise him on his role as a chef in 'Adam Jones', and advised him on every aspect of culinary life, including realistic dialogue.
Gordon told The Metro newspaper: "As well as giving Bradley a few top tips on cooking, I've taught him the most important thing he needs to know in order to get by in a kitchen - how to swear."
Gordon has had the time to meet with Bradley after recently revealing he was ending one of his popular TV shows, 'Kitchen Nightmares'.
He said recently: "As filming comes to a close on the latest series of 'Kitchen Nightmares' I've decided to stop making the show.
"I'm currently filming four new episodes, Costa Del Nightmares, for Channel 4 which will be my last.
"I've had a phenomenal 10 years making 123 episodes, 12 seasons, shot across two continents, watched by tens of millions of people and sold to over 150 countries. It's been a blast but it's time to call it a day."
'Adam Jones' stars Bradley as a wild chef hunting for a third Michelin star, something Gordon knows a little about, having been awarded 15 stars during his career.
The film - which is being directed by John Wells - also stars Uma Thurman, Sienna Miller and Emma Thompson.
Filming has already begun in New Orleans and shooting will move to London from next week until September 26.

Cara Delevingne has been told to move out of her parents home.
The model - who until now has lived with her father and mother, Charles and Pandora, in their £10million Belgravia mansion in London - has been asked by the pair to find her own house after they decided to move to a smaller property which can't accommodate Cara's ever-expanding wardrobe.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Cara has always lived at home and gets on very well with her parents so it made sense for her to stay put.
"But Charles and Pandora are selling up to buy a smaller house now their kids have grown up.
"They told Cara she needs to find her own digs because they won't have room for her and her ever-growing wardrobe."
It is believed Cara, 21, is now looking for a "spacious and super-quiet" first home in London's poshest borough, Chelsea and Kensington, with a budget of around £1.25 million and has called in her sister Poppy, 25, to help with the search.
The insider added: "Poppy is helping her with viewings. She wants space, lots of privacy and somewhere super-quiet so all the attention she gets doesn't make her a nightmare for a new neighbour."
Meanwhile, Cara, 21, previously had plans to move in with fellow model Georgia May Jagger in North London last year, but is now being forced to find her own place after Georgia, 22, started dating rocker Josh McLellan.
The source explained: "This is a big deal for Cara. She was due to move in with Georgia May Jagger in Camden last year but that fell through because Georgia got a boyfriend and Cara didn't want to be a third wheel."

Fifi Geldof has defended her late sister Peaches.
The 31 year old took to her Instagram account yesterday (24.07.14) to slam critics of her younger sister after an inquest found she had overdosed on high-strength heroin and had drug paraphernalia scattered about the house - where she cared for her two sons Astala, two, and 15-month-old Phaedra - when she died in April this year.
Fifi posted an image on the picture-sharing site that read: "Don't keep calm and f*** this. F*** that. F*** you. F*** off."
She captioned the photo: "Sums it up nicely about how I'm feeling about the viciousness today. Maybe now she'll be allowed to RIP."
One user, @xsuzannex11, replied: "Think people are more annoyed at how she portrayed her life for her kids but was selfish to use drugs in front of them. Selfish and sad. Poor boys."
However Fifi quickly hit back, writing: "You've no idea what you're talking about quite frankly. Yet another who has bought into the bulls***.
"I'd appreciate you getting the f*** off my page with stuff like that on today of all days."
The outburst comes just days after the inquest into the death of Peaches - who tragically died at the age of 25 - had been taking substitute drug methadone in the two-and-a-half years before her untimely demise.
Peaches' grieving husband Thomas Cohen told the inquest that his wife had started taking heroin again in February and the drugs were of high purity.
Thomas also revealed how he witnessed Peaches trying to flush drugs down the toilet at their home in Wrotham, Kent, South East England.
According to evidence presented at the inquest, held in Gravesend Old Town Hall in Kent, Peaches' body had become intolerant of heroin after she successfully overcame a past addiction and so the high purity of the drugs she was taking had a fatal effect.
Thomas confirmed he had taken his eldest son to stay with his parents on the weekend of Peaches' death and said she seemed fine when he spoke to her on the phone. The rocker became concerned when he couldn't reach his wife by phone and found her body the next day, April 7, slumped on a bed.

Conan O'Brien admits that the feud between him and Jay Leno remains fierce.
The bitter rivalry began in earnest in 2010 when, barely six months after replacing Leno as host of 'The Tonight Show', Conan was ousted from the show.
Conan told ShortList magazine: "In some ways, that was more intense than Jay versus Dave [Letterman].
"It felt like the younger guard [supporting Conan] against the old guard [Leno]. People were having rallies, making videos slamming NBC, and NBC was thinking, 'How is Conan doing this?'
"I was being credited as a genius when I didn't have the slightest idea who these people were."
Conan - who now hosts a new self-titled talk show - added that some of his most ardent fans even went so far as to get a tattoo as a show of support. He was, however, quick to point out that he didn't necessarily appreciate the gesture.
The talk show host added: "They've tattooed my face on their body. I always feel like, 'Look, I'll pay to have that removed.' "
'Conan' will begin airing in the UK on TruTV, Mondays to Thursdays at 11pm, from August 4.

Kerry Washington had "serious hustle going on" before she made it as an actress.
The 37-year-old star studied for a degree in anthropology and sociology before pursuing a career in acting and she's revealed that during the year she gave herself to try and secure her first role, she was working a number of jobs.
When asked whether it was true that she was teaching yoga at the time, she confessed: "I was, yes. I lived in India right after college and got certified to teach. I was also a supply teacher for New York City public schools. I loved it.
"I had to limit myself to teaching no more than three days in a row at the same school so I wouldn't be seduced.
"Oh, and I was working in a restaurant. I had serious hustle going on."
The 'Scandal' actress - who admits her parents wanted her to become a lawyer because they were "terrified" of her being a failed actor - claims she learnt a lot from her mother and father when she was growing up.
Quizzed on how her parents influenced her, she told Stylist magazine: "They influenced me immensely. I've learned very different things from each of them. My mother is more of a quiet soul but she walks in the world with a great deal of grace, intelligence, refinement and dignity.
"I've tried to embody those things in the best way I can. My dad is much more gregarious. He is one of the most generous spirits I've ever met and he truly is interested in the people and the world around him."

Kesha has "let colour back into" her life again.
The 27-year-old singer - who is currently sporting blue hair - wants to dye her luscious locks different colours to represent her new positive outlook.
Speaking on 'Good Morning America' yesterday (24.07.14), she said: "I'm having my hair be a rainbow, right now. I'm going through all the colours of the rainbow because I feel like I'm a rainbow.
"This is my new thing, I'm a rainbow. Before I used to dress a lot in black and now I've let colour into my life. It's very metaphorical."
The 'Timber' hitmaker spent two months in rehab being treated for an eating disorder in January, and she admits since completing her stint she's made vast improvements, both mentally and physically.
She explained: "I'm doing really well ... I've been overwhelmed. The amount of love and support I've received is insane. It was really touching."
The stunning star insists her biggest accomplishment so far was learning to deal with the negative comments, which had once knocked her body confidence.
Asked what the most difficult part of her journey was, she said: "Just really learning to block out negativity and not letting hateful messages get to me, because I've received some pretty hateful things."

Chris Pratt's wife is trying to "fatten" him up.
The 35-year-old hunk dropped more than 60lbs in just six months for his role in 'Guardians of the Galaxy' but now that filming has wrapped up, he admits his spouse Anna Faris is planning to help him pile on the pounds.
Speaking at the film's European premiere held at Empire Cinema, in Leicester Square, London, last night (24.07.14), he exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "I'm destined to put on some of the weight again because no one can live beer-free for ever! And my wife's going to fatten me up - if I get fat, blame her!"
Chris - who lost the weight with a combination of bodybuilding and conditioning workouts - rushed to his local restaurant once production had finished as he couldn't wait to scoff down his first carb-heavy meal.
He told E! News earlier this week: "I had pancakes at my local diner, The Griddle Café. I was with my wife and I'd been craving them for a really long time. It was like a victory lap for me."
Chris and Anna, who got married in 2009, made a long list of calorific treats they wanted to eat once the actor was allowed to come off his strict diet.
He explained: "It was a long list and it took about eight months to make ... every fast food chain you could think of is on there."

Khloé Kardashian thinks French Montana is a "softie".
The 30-year-old star - who filed for divorce from ex-husband Lamar Odom in December - has been dating the 29-year-old rapper since April and admits there's a private side to him that people haven't seen before.
Speaking on Angie Martinez's Power 105 radio show yesterday (24.07.14), she gushed: "He's probably one of the funniest people I've ever met in my life. You cannot stop laughing [around him]. Like, crying laughing. I think he's a little bit of [everything], but I think people definitely don't get to see the great parts of him.
"He puts out more of the tough exterior, that's who he is. But there's also a different side of him. He could be a softie sometimes. [But] I've learned from my past that you've gotta keep some things more private and a little more close to your heart."
The couple were first introduced to each other through mutual friend Diddy - whose real name is Sean Combs - after spending some time in the studio and they have flaunted their romance on social media sites ever since.
However, the 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star - who split from Lamar last year after he allegedly cheated on her - insists she doesn't care what people think of her and French's new relationship.
She said: "People are gonna comment no matter what. If I dated the most clean-cut, perfect guy they're gonna comment. So if I'm having fun and dating this kid...they're not f**king him, so why should they care?"
