AceShowbiz - Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio have reunited to throw their support behind a new voting campaign video.
The stars, who are currently filming Quentin Tarantino's "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" together, have recorded a public service announcement for organisers at NowThis, who make social media videos for younger audiences.
In the campaign video, the actors urge their fans to vote in the upcoming U.S. midterm elections on November 6.
"This election may be the most consequential of our lifetime," DiCaprio says. "So much is at stake, from gun safety laws, to immigration policy, clean water and air, and whether or not millions of people have access to health care."
"Statehouse elections will determine the future of climate change, criminal justice reform, education funding, LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer) equality, and even your ability to vote," Pitt adds.
