Brad Pitt's buzz cut is for a recent job
Brad Pitt is rocking buzz cut for a job he's just wrapped.
The 61-year-old Hollywood star previously had the hairdo in 2004 and was first spotted sporting a buzz cut in Los Angeles in May.
Asked what made him go for the shaved look, he told PEOPLE: 'I just finished a job.
'It's for a character we did.'
Brad Pitt's latest role he's promoting his starring as Formula One drive Sonny Hayes in F1.
Sharing his favourite memories from the high-octane flick, he told the publication at the world premiere in New York's Times Square: 'I got a lot.
'I got a lot, but every time I got in the car, these tracks are just like hallowed ground. Silverstone. Spa in Belgium was the most memorable. Abu Dhabi. We really got spoiled.'
The Fight Club star also admitted it's been an odd experience going back to driving ordinary cars.
He said: 'There's a strange calm in the car when you're hitting everything.
"You're hitting your breaking points and hitting your turning points. It's such a piece. I can't even describe it. Yeah, it's incredible.'
The actor's character in the movie is a retired driver making his return to the sport, and Brad has seen parallels with the film world.
He told Extra recently: "It's nice... It's a funny thing because I see the new generations coming in and it's really exciting what they're doing, and the movies are about a place in time, in our time, and they reflect our time…
"I really enjoy it, but I so enjoy what other people are doing, so it's less of a hunt and more of an appreciation, you know, as the natural evolution happens."

Joseph Kosinski explains why Simone Ashley was cut from F1
Simone Ashley's role was cut from F1 because there was too much footage. The Bridgerton actress was cast in the Formula One racing drama alongside Brad Pitt and Damson Idris but director Joseph Kosinski had to drop a number of storylines from the finished film, including the scenes featuring the 30-year-old star. Simone has a brief on-screen appearance but no dialogue in the movie, and the director told People magazine: "It happens on every film, where you have to shoot more than you can use. There were two or three storylines that ultimately didn't make into the final cut." However, Joseph praised Simone's "incredible" talents and insisted he'd love to work with her on another project. He added: "But Simone, she's an incredible talent, incredible actress, incredible singer, and I would love to work with her again." While Simone hasn't yet spoken about not making the final cut, she previously admitted making F1 was a "once in a lifetime experience. Speaking at IWC Schaffhausen at their Watches and Wonders booth in Geneva, she said: "(It was a) once in a lifetime experience. So grateful to be part of that film and part of the long journey that they've all endured. "We got to experience everything in real time at the real races, the real Grand Prix, the roar of the crowds, the roar of the engines, the chaos, the energy. I got to travel all over the world." Simone explained that she prepared for the movie – which IWC Schaffhausen have collaborated with by sponsoring 'APXGP', the fictional 11th team on the grid - by "immersing" herself with the cast. She said: "I'm very grateful to be part of this movie and my preparation for it was to just be part of the team and to just immerse myself within it all. I made some great friends on this film, which really meant a lot to me." And Simone compared the experience to starrring in a theatrical production because of the unique challenge of filming scenes at the same time as the world's leading drivers were preparing for Grand Prix around the world. She said: "It felt just like theatre, like waiting in the wings, waiting to be called to go on to the grid or wherever we were filming. Sometimes we only had like five minutes or 10 minutes of access to film a scene. "Every time we were filming on the grid or parc ferme we would all be gassed up and excited. Getting ready together, Brad would be playing music – even talking about it makes me have goosebumps. It was just indescribable."

Spice Girl Geri Halliwell walks the F1 The Movie red carpet with her racing boss husband
Geri Halliwell-Horner has returned her Formula 1 husband Christian to the grid – her Instagram one, rather than the motor racing grid. The Spice Girl beamed in photos alongside her Red Bull Racing boss beau as they walked the red carpet at the F1 The Movie premiere in New York's Time Square. Channelling Marilyn Monroe in her white halter-neck dress, Halliwell-Horner looked particularly happy to be snapped alongside the film's star, Brad Pitt. She also shared a photo of them chatting to Irish actress Kerry Condon, one of Pitt's co-stars in the blockbuster film which opens next week. Pitt earlier walked the red carpet with his girlfriend Ines de Ramon, a couple of days after sharing a double-date dinner with another celebrity couple du jour, Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid. The movie, executive-produced by Hollywood blockbuster king Jerry Bruckheimer – alongside Pitt and champion driver Lewis Hamilton – is expected to a global smash in the wake of the phenomenal success of the Netflix series Drive To Survive. The Horners made the rare appearance on each other's social media channels in the wake of a texting scandal which tested their marriage in March last year. Horner was cleared of any inappropriate behaviour involving a female colleague after an extensive external investigation. The last time the Spice Girl and author shared a photo of them together on her Instagram grid was six months ago, when she accompanied her husband to Buckingham Palace to receive his Commander of the British Empire honour. 'As a family, we are all incredibly proud of everything you have achieved in your 20 years at Red Bull Racing and I know the team feel the same,' she wrote at the time. 'You are a leader, an innovator and a pathfinder and this distinction is a reflection of your dedication and services to motorsport.' The singer turned author recently celebrated the success of her latest young adult novel Rosie Frost: Ice on Fire, which topped bestseller lists around the world. Her promotional tour for the book was hijacked by desperate speculation that the Spice Girls may be planning another reunion next year to mark the 30th anniversary of their debut single Wannabe.
