Brad Pitt to Quit Acting at Age 50

Brad Pitt on acting, infants and happiness.

Brad Pitt announced in an Australian interview that we have only a mere three years to continue watching his mediocre films, because he is retiring from acting at the age of 50. He’s such a hard worker. However, the star will continue to produce films and infants. In the same interview he has mentioned that he and child collector Angelina Jolie are open to having more kids.

“You know, I don’t know that we’re finished. I don’t know yet. I don’t know.”

How mysterious.

My speculation is that they just get bored of the kids after they hit a certain age. Maddox is ten now. Once you hit double digits, the nanny is the only one who really gives a shit about you.

“Those late nights are so fun when one of them’s up or those mornings when they get up and make pancakes or something. That’s what it’s about.”

I thought one of the benefits of leaving their native countries is avoiding child labor?

But really the question we all want to know: is Brad happy?

“I think happiness is overrated, truthfully. I do. I think sometimes you’re happy, sometimes you’re not. There’s too much pressure to be happy. I don’t know. I don’t really give a shit. I know I will be at times and I know I won’t be at times. Satisfied, at peace, those would be more goals for myself.”

Good for you.
