Brad Pitt and partner Angelina Jolie are looking to star in a new movie together, because as Brad says, “why aren’t we doing everything together?” The couple met on the set of ‘Mr. & Mrs. Smith’ and their incredible chemistry was evident onscreen. Trouble was, Brad was married at the time to Jennifer Aniston. Not long after the movie was released, Brad and Jen divorced, and Brad started his family with Angelina.
In an interview with NPR, Brad talked about working with Angelina again. He also opened up on why he had so many kids, so quickly, and how BBQ’ing is his speciality.
Brad Pitt on why he had so many children – so quickly:
“I know it seems extreme from the outside, but I’ve always kind of operated this way. When I know, I know, and why mess around?” Pitt, 47, said in an interview.
“I had a friend who had a big family when I was a kid. I just loved the chaos around the breakfast table and the fighting and the ribbing, and the mom making pancakes for everyone or the dad making pancakes. And I just decided then if I was ever going to do it — this left some indelible mark on me — if I was ever going to do it, that’s the way I was going to do it.”
He also opended up about wanting to do another movie with his partner, Angelina Jolie:
“We’re not ones to repeat ourselves, but we’d like to, because right now, we’re hopscotching with films so one can be with the kids and one’s free to work,” Pitt said. “And why aren’t we doing them together? Why aren’t we doing everything together?”
Brad considers himself a family man, above everything else:
“I think my focus before was more irreverence, by nature,” Pitt said. “I’m a dad now. It’s more important to me that if I’m going to do the film, there’s something I can bring to it, it’s not generic. And most of all, I’m painfully aware that my kids are going to see these when they’re older, and I want them to understand something about their dad, and I want them to be proud of their dad.”
And maybe remember some chaos around the breakfast table, said Pitt, who cooks pancakes for his kids.
“Breakfast is pretty much my specialty,” Pitt said. “And barbecue.”
