Brad Pitt Says Young Actors ‘Get Caught Up’ in the Pressure to ‘Have a Superhero’ or ‘Have a Franchise’ and Tells Them: ‘Don’t! Don’t! They’ll Die’


Brad Pitt says young actors face pressure to have a superhero movie or a franchise film.

Brad Pitt joined Travis and Jason Kelce on the “New Heights” podcast during his “ F1 ” promotional tour and spoke about his affection and worry for the next generation of young actors. While Pitt notably had a cameo in “Deadpool 2,” he has avoided superhero movies otherwise and has mostly stayed clear of big Hollywood franchises outside of his “Ocean’s” trilogy with George Clooney and Matt Damon. He shares a similar mindset with that of his “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” co-star Leonardo DiCaprio, who famously advised Timothée Chalamet during his ascent to fame not to join any superhero movies.
