Brad Pitt discusses sobriety, potential retirement: ‘I consider myself on my last leg’

Brad Pitt discusses sobriety, potential retirement: ‘I consider myself on my last leg’

Brad Pitt might not appear on-screen as often in the future and he’s discussed his recent foray into final stages of his film career. In an interview with GQ magazine that was published Wednesday, the actor indicated that he will soon retire.  “I consider myself on my last leg, Pitt said, near the end of this semester or trimester. What am I doing for this final section? And how should I design it?”

William Pitt still has upcoming acting gigs for movies including Bullet Train, about five assassins aboard a train, and Babylon, a movie about an historical drama. At the age of 58, this Hollywood actor, known for films such as Fight Club and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, has largely left behind the days of acting and has instead been producing films with a company called Plan B Entertainment. Recent films of theirs are Moonlight, Detroit, and the just-released remake of Father of the Bride.
Brad Pitt tells GQ magazine in an August 2022 cover story that he is on the verge of retirement. In 2022, the production company will be responsible for Netflix’s Blonde starring Ana de Armas as Marilyn Monroe, Women Talking, and the Academy Award winner, who thinks the film is as profound as anything made this decade.

Although it has not been formally diagnosed, Pitt told GQ he may have prosopagnosia, otherwise known as face blindness, which prevents him from recognizing new faces or remembering people he meets in social settings.
Pitt also says he gave up smoking completely during the pandemic because reducing the number of cigarettes he smoked per day wasn’t enough. “I’m an all-in person, Pitt explained. If I’m going to do it, I’m going to do it my way and push it as hard as I can. And I lost my privileges for it.”
He attended Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, getting sober, in 2016, when Angelina Jolie filed for divorce.
I had a really private and selective men’s group here, Pitt told GQ. That was really important to me because I knew what it was like for other people who’ve been recorded spilling their guts.
Since the initial divorce proceedings where Jolie asked for physical custody of all six of their children- Maddox, 20, Pax, 18, Zahara, 17, Shiloh, 16, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 13, they have been embroiled in a custody battle. Although Pitt was awarded joint custody tentatively last spring, Jolie’s team criticized the private judge for not allowing the couple’s children to testify in the custody proceedings.
California’s Supreme Court rejected Pitt’s request for an appeal on an earlier decision by a state appeals court which handed Jolie a major victory by disqualifying the private judge the couple hired to handle their divorce. In August 2020, Jolie’s team filed a petition to disqualify the judge from the case because of a disclosure issue regarding the judge’s business connection with an attorney on Pitt’s team.
Holly Davis, an attorney who co-founded Austin-based Kirker Davis LLP, a divorce firm, has advised that the custody case will start anew with a new judge.
