Brad Pitt, who has had nearly 40 years in the film industry, is one of the most recognized actors in the world. He recently gave an interview to GQ Magazine. Pitt has several upcoming movies in the pipeline. He commented that he’s been media fodder for years, as he’s dated some big names in the industry to include Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Aniston, and he was married to Angelina Jolie.
My personal life is always in the news… it’s been in the news for 30 years, bro. Or some version of my personal life, let’s put it that way.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
While filming Mr. & Mrs. Smith in 2005, Pitt and Jolie first met. The two married in 2014, only to be divorced two years later. The amount of media coverage for both Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie was dizzying. It was almost to the point where it was a daily occurrence. Brad told Variety Online:
Nearly eight years later, Brad Pitt states that he is in a good place with his family and in his personal life. However, he said that he is still under constant media scrutiny, describing it as a “nagging time suck.” Brad also stated filming F1 was somewhat of a refuge, as he was busy taping scenes and out of the spotlight.
As of now, it seems that Jolie and Pitt have mostly put their custody issues behind them. It looks as though they reached an agreement when it comes to their children.
Brad Pitt’s Upcoming Films
Brad Pitt has several other films coming out. He has thrown himself back into work, even after he declared in 2022 that he was on the “last leg” of his acting career. He later explained that he was entering his later years, as he approached 60. He spoke to GQ about doing F1: The Movie.
Man, I’ve been doing this for a while and was wondering: Do I have more stories to tell? Do I have anything to add to this? Is there still any excitement I can find from this? [This film] just reinvigorated the whole thing again for me.
Two more upcoming movies are also on the horizon. One is The Riders, directed by Edward Berger, about an Australian searching for his missing wife in Ireland. This is in pre-production. The other, Heart of the Beast, which is in post-production, is about a military special forces veteran returning to society.
Brad Pitt’s Personal Life Now
For the past three years, Brad Pitt has been happily involved with Swiss jewelry executive Ines de Ramon. They met through a mutual friend and started dating in early 2022. Ines encouraged him to work things out with Angelina Jolie, so it’s likely she was a catalyst in smoothing things over.
Brad Pitt still frequently gets irritated with all the media speculation, but of late, it’s been less about his personal drama and more about his upcoming movies. That’s a good thing because we’re looking forward to having something to watch.
