Brad Pitt Says ‘Se7en' 'Reinvigorated' His Passion for Acting After 'the Most Unhealthy Time'
David Fincher's Se7en played a part in reinvigorating Brad Pitt's passion for acting during the early years of his career. During a Monday appearance on Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert podcast, the F1: The Movie star reflected on what he described as 'the most unhealthy time' in his life during the summer of 1994. He admitted that after having 'not such great experiences coming off a couple of jobs,' he wasn't sure where his career was heading.

I had the weirdest summer,' he said. 'It was the most unhealthy time, I just needed to check out and I would wake up, I would get a bong load, I'd have four Coca Colas on no ice, no food this particular summer, and I watched the O.J. trial, trying to figure out what do I do next? What do I do next?' Pitt found himself 'reinvigorated' after he was presented with the Se7en script, though he was still initially hesitant about the film's storyline before he met with the director. 'Then I read this script, my dear friend and manager and basically my sister now, Cynthia, sends this over, [and] she says, 'You got to read this.' I read the first seven pages, I call her up and I go, 'Are you kidding me?'' Pitt explained. 'Like, [it was] the cliché old cop wants out, the young cop comes in and he's looking at his high school football trophies?' She goes, 'Just finish it.' Then I go meet Finch, and he was just talking about films like I'd never heard anyone speak about film.' The Oscar winner added, 'I just got the jones back, and finding that thing, it just reinvigorated what I wanted out of this thing.' Se7en follows the story of Detective William Somerset (Morgan Freeman), who is about to retire, and David Mills (Pitt), as they track down a serial killer (Kevin Spacey) who murders people who he believes have committed one of the seven deadly sins. The film earned a sole nomination at the 68th Academy Awards for best film editing.

Brad Pitt's 'F1: The Movie' is already making noise for all the right reasons - gripping performances, stunning visuals, and a tightly packed screenplay. But if there's one element that deserves a solo lap of honour, it's the music album. Packed with high-energy tracks and backed by none other than Hans Zimmer's powerful background score, 'F1: The Album' is a full-blown experience in alongside the film on June 27, this 17-track album is not just an add-on, it's the fuel that powers the emotional and adrenaline-pumped scenes in the movie.F1: The Movie's music blends global sounds, heart-thumping beats, and lyrical stories that echo the spirit of racing: high-speed, high-stakes, and full of from the first beat The ride kicks off with 'Lose My Mind' by Don Toliver featuring Doja Cat - an electrifying first single that sets the tone for the entire album. Its placement in the racing drama is so picture-perfect, it leaves viewers on the edge of their seats as the track blares on the kind of track that makes you want to tighten your seatbelt even before the engines ahead of the film (April 30), this song comes with slick visuals and the kind of trap-pop fusion that fits perfectly with the rush of the F1 world. Don and Doja's energy matches the film's opening momentum, and it's no surprise that the song quickly caught fire with the song video here: 'Messy' waves: BLACKPINK's Rose makes her markThen comes a surprising shift in gear with 'Messy', sung by K-pop star Rose. Debuting at the Miami Grand Prix and officially unveiled at the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix (Italy), this one's sultry yet smooth, base-driven and moody in the best it's Rose's first official single since her solo debut, and she doesn't miss. The song mirrors the emotional dips in the film, especially during Sonny Hayes' (fictional F1 driver played by Brad Pitt) inner conflicts, and it adds a cool, contemporary edge to the soundtrack.A super-group for end creditsThen came the news drop: Ed Sheeran's 'Drive', a rock-tinged anthem built for Sonny Hayes's final throttle just days before the film, the song captures the emotional peak of the not just Ed here, he ropes in John Mayer on guitars and Dave Grohl on drums. The result? A rock-leaning anthem that hits just as hard as the film's climax. It feels like that final lap where everything's on the line - and it delivers, both musically and with 'Drive', Ed sheds his soft-boy image and dives into the rock music zone, delivering an adrenaline-pumping track accompanied by slick visuals in the official music the music video of 'Drive' here: Layered beats and some genre flexThe album doesn't stop there. Tracks like Tate McRae's 'Just Keep Watching' and Myke Towers' 'Baja California' add a pop and Latin flair, bringing a global texture to the Roddy Ricch's 'Underdog' and Chris Stapleton's 'Bad As I Used To Be' fit right into the comeback arc of Pitt's character. There's grit, vulnerability, and just enough edge to give the movie its emotional also no shortage of high-energy, party-ready beats. 'OMG!' by Tiesto and Sexyy Red, and 'D.A.N.C.E.' by Peggy Gou turn up the heat with club-style drops that could easily play at an to that the mix of fresh voices like PAWSA, Mr Eazi, Darkoo, and Obongjayar, and the album feels young, inclusive, and the video of 'Just Keep Watching' here: Hans Zimmer's pulseTying all of this together is Hans Zimmer's original score, which gives the film its beating for his larger-than-life orchestral pieces, Zimmer here takes a slightly different route: layering electronic textures with emotional swells that follow Sonny Hayes's journey on and off the it's a high-stakes overtake or a quiet conversation between rivals, Zimmer's music plays like an invisible co-driver, guiding the emotion in every makes 'F1: The Album' stand out is its balance. Rather than being just another sloppy mix, it is a grand prix lineup that accelerates the film - even outside the theatre, inside your mind. For a long, long track, whether a chartbuster or an instrumental, plays a role in amplifying the film's narrative. And that's where the magic a film that's all about speed, pressure, and redemption, this album does more than just keep up - it races ahead. And if you ask us, it deserves a podium finish of its own.- Ends
