Brad Pitt cracks a rare smile on the set of his Cliff Booth movie following the passing of his mother
Brad Pitt reported for work Tuesday on the set of his latest film two weeks after the death of his mother. The actor, 61, has been working on David Fincher's film The Adventures of Cliff Booth, the sequel to the Oscar-winning Once Upon a Time... In Hollywood for Netflix. The versatile star was seen wearing his 1970s era costume, that included a brown suede jacket, gray jeans and a necklace of white Pooka shells. The actor, who has been sporting closely cropped hair an a beard while promoting F!: The Movie earlier this summer, appeared to be wearing a blonde wig and was cleanly shaven, except for a mustache. The day's shoot appeared to be taking place in a public space and security guards could be seen working hard to keep onlookers from getting too close to the star. The actor was 'being his usual professional self despite this personal tragedy,' a source told People. Pitt has not made any public mention of his mother's passing at age 84, on August 5, but he was thinking about her while promoting F1 on Today in June. 'I gotta say hi to my mom because she watches you every morning,' he told the hosts. He then blew a kiss following it with 'To Jane Pitt. Love you, Mom.' Pitt is reprising his role as Cliff Booth, the preferred stuntman for Leonardo DiCaprio 's TV star Rick Dalton, in Once Upon A Time... In Hollywood.. DiCaprio is not listed as a cast member on the show's IMDb page, which describes the plot as showcasing 'more of Cliff Booth's backstory in his new role as a Hollywood fixer.' Timothy Olyphant is up for a part in the new story, but wouldn't confirm or deny he had been hired after seemingly spilling the beans on Conan O'Brien's podcas t August 7. 'I'm hoping I'm in it,' the Justified star said, adding, 'You never know. It only is what it is.' Writer and director Quentin Tarantino, 62, who received Academy Award nominations for directing and writing the 2019 show business dramady, will not be helming this project. Tarantino wrote the script, but he turned over directing duties to his friend David Fincher, 62. 'I think me and David Fincher are the two best directors,' he said recently on the Church of Tarantino podcast. 'So the idea that David Fincher actually wants to adapt my work, to me, shows a level of seriousness towards my work that I think needs to be taken into account.' Tarantino, who said he will retire after his next film passed on this one because he didn't want it to be his swan song. 'It just kind of unenthused me,' he explained. 'This last movie, I've got to not know what I'm doing again. I've got to be in uncharted territory.'

EXCLUSIVE The startling comment Christian Horner made to me just days before he was sacked by Red Bull reveals the real story of his downfall - and this is what he and Geri will do next: JONATHAN McEVOY
It had all seemed so perfect only a week before. It was Clay Day at the Horners' manor in Oxfordshire. A shoot. The sun was shining. Geri was the perfect hostess at Elevenses, all in the name of the Wings for Life charity. Yes, there were still nagging doubts over Christian Horner 's future as Red Bull team principal for 17 months, since he was accused last February of sending texts of a coercive nature to a female employee.

EXCLUSIVE My encounter from hell with Gary Lineker. His crass and ugly behaviour shocked me and I still regret not pulling him up on it, says presenter PETER BLEKSLEY. His departure will not come a moment too soon
In August 2019, I had the great misfortune to spend a day in the company of Gary Lineker on an advertising shoot. Things got off to a bad start when he turned up more than an hour late. As an old-school copper, I count punctuality as one of the greatest human virtues and I considered this an act of crass unprofessionalism, especially as it was a hot day and there was a lot to get through.
