AceShowbiz - Brad Pitt said he wore a skirt to a "Bullet Train" screening because "we're all going to die." The 58-year-old "Fight Club" actor gave the explanation when asked why he wore the knee-length outfit to the Berlin showing of his latest film.
He told Variety on Monday night, August 1, while wearing an all-green combination, about his recent quirky sartorial choices, "I don't know! We're all going to die, so let's mess it up." It comes after he told GQ earlier this year, "I consider myself on my last leg. This last semester or trimester. What is this section gonna be? And how do I wanna design that?"
Brad's skirt was accompanied by a light brown cardigan and accessorized with a cluster of necklaces, along with sunglasses and black combat boots. He's also been seen laughing with his co-stars and jokingly high-kicking for cameras as he continues the promotional trail for the action film.
The Oscar winner stars as a hitman in the David Leitch–directed film, with the codename Ladybug. His character is looking to go straight until he is lured back to retrieve a special briefcase aboard a high-speed train heading from Tokyo to Kyoto.
The movie also includes appearances by Joey King, Sandra Bullock, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Logan Lerman, Michael Shannon, Zazie Beetz and Bad Bunny.
Originally slated for an April 2022 release, it was pushed back to August 5 after a string of delays. The film also features four other assassin characters who realise their jobs are intertwined and they are all going after a silver briefcase.
Brad's cheery attitude comes despite him last month losing the latest round of legal battles with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie, 47, over the Château Miraval winery where they got married in 2014. The pair took control of the renowned rosé company in 2008 but when mum-of-six Angelina sold her stake to liquor giant Stoli it set in motion a labyrinthine set of ownership and rights lawsuits in the US, France and Luxembourg between the former couple and various business partners.
