Brad Pitt is known as one of the most highly acclaimed actors in the Hollywood film industry. Although he has played a number of roles that have definitely impressed many girls, the World War Z actor stated in an interview that he is halfway there.
It was in 2012 when the “Bullet Train” actor was promoting his then latest film, “Killing Them Softly,” exactly one year before he turned 50.
While talking about the thriller, Brad Pitt also reflected on the time he spent on the Chanel advertising campaign.
In the above-mentioned ad, the By the Sea actor is seen saying random lines like, “The world turns, and we turn with it. Plans disappear. Dreams take over. But wherever I go, there you are.” However, Brad Pitt said he chose to star in this ad because it was one of the few opportunities he might just not get in the future.
“I’m getting old,” he added during the interview with the outlet, calling the ad campaign his last opportunity to “be able to do something like this.”
In the interview, he also spoke about his mortality, explaining that he views it the same way a father would. The actor then added that he wants to see his children grow up and achieve great things in life.
However, the Ad Astra star also explained: “If I have so many days left, how am I going to fill them? I’ve thought about that more than ever before.”
Let’s move on to Brad Pitt’s role in Killing Them Softly. He plays the character of Jackie Cogan, an enforcer who is hired to restore order after a robbery by three people.
In addition to Brad Pitt, the film also starred the late and great Ray Liotta, Richard Jenkins, Scoot McNairy and others. Killing Them Softly was directed by Andrew Dominik and written by him and George V. Higgins.
The film was released on October 5, 2012, and the following year, 2013, Brad Pitt celebrated his 50th birthday.
