Brad Pitt May Retire, Says He's On The Last Leg Of Acting Career
Brad Pitt, one of the most prominent movie stars of the past few decades, may retire soon, saying he's on the "last leg" of his acting career. The American actor first gained recognition in 1991 for his role as a cowboy hitchhiker in Ridley Scott's road film Thelma & Louise. Following leading roles in big-budget productions like A River Runs Through It, Legends of the Fall, and Interview with the Vampire, Pitt began to garner critical acclaim for his performances in films like David Fincher's crime thriller Seven and Terry Gilliam's sci-fi hit 12 Monkeys, the latter earning him his first Oscar nod.
Following nominations for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Moneyball, Pitt finally won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his performance as stunt double Cliff Booth in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. After a brief break due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Pitt returned to the big screen with a memorable role in The Lost City alongside Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum. This year, Pitt will also be fronting a major summer tentpole in David Leitch’s Bullet Train and starring in Damien Chazelle's new film, Babylon, which features an ensemble cast. While it looked like the 58-year-old actor's career was just about to undergo a late resurgence, it appears that won't be the case.
