has been keeping busy promoting his new racing flick F1 ahead of its theatrical release on June 27.
The legendary actor has been popping up on red carpets and at photo calls lately, looking as handsome as ever with a fresh new haircut that has his fans in awe.
But there's more to Pitt than his looks, and it's clear that he's been doing some soul searching lately.

Pitt went on to say, "Really, I think you get to my age and see how important it is to surround yourself with the people you know, the people you love, the people that love you back. Friends, family, and that's it. From there, we get to go make things. It's a pretty simple, I think, equation."
This conversation followed a recent GQ interview, where Pitt opened up about the constant media scrutiny, especially of his relationships.
"My personal life is always in the news," Pitt said during the interview. "It's been in the news for 30 years, bro. Or some version of my personal life, let's put it that way."
"It's been an annoyance I've had to always deal with in different degrees, large and small, as I do the things I really want to do," Pitt said of the constant public attention on his personal life.
The F1 star continued, "So, it's always been this kind of nagging time suck or waste of time, if you let it be that, I don't know. I don't know. Mostly I feel pretty…. My life is fairly contained. It feels pretty warm and secure with my friends, with my loves, with my fam, with my knowledge of who I am, that, you know, it's like this fly buzzing around a little bit.'It sounds like the Fight Clubstar is not letting his lengthy legal battle, which led to a December 2024 divorce from, get him down. Pitt and Jolie's marriage drama dominated headlines for years, and there are still ongoing rumbles about his fractured relationships with his children.
Just a few weeks after Pitt drove his last race as Sonny Hayes for F1, his divorce from Jolie was finalized.
