It looks like he’s still got some juice in him. Brad Pitt is setting the record straight about his supposed retirement, by reassuring his fans that he’s not done with Hollywood just yet. In fact, Pitt worried fans that his acting days may be numbered after a GQ interview last month in which he said he was in the “last semester” of his career. Here’s what you need to know.
In a recent interview, Pitt said, “I’m not getting out by any means. It seems that might have been taken as a statement of retirement. That’s not what I was saying,” he said. “I’m over that hump of middle age and so I’m looking at that last leg… how do I want to spend that time? At my age, you’ve made enough mistakes… now there’s a comfort in applying that kind of wisdom.”

It’s infused with humor and character,” he said. “I can’t say enough about Jackie Chan and what he’s done, and to be in that arena, even close to that, is something I hadn’t done before.”
Meanwhile, Pitt will next be seen in Babylon, a film about Hollywood’s golden age, directed by Damien Chazelle. That will partner him again with Margot Robbie – the pair starred in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which won Pitt an Oscar in 2020.
But Pitt said he takes particular enjoyment from production duties with his company, Plan B. The company has three Best Picture Oscar winners to its name – The Departed, Twelve Years a Slave and Moonlight – and will soon release the hotly tipped Blonde about Marilyn Monroe.
