Finally, a new interview…

The tragedy of Hurricane Katrina brought out the best in American volunteerism. Actor Brad Pitt, who has a home in New Orleans, responded with extraordinary creativity and commitment. The Lower 9th Ward houses of Pitt’s nonprofit Make it Right Foundation – individualistic and energy-efficient – are among the most inspired responses to the storm’s ravages. As the fifth anniversary of Katrina approached, Pitt spoke with historian Douglas Brinkley, his longtime friend, about his love of the city and his dreams for its future. Brinkley provided this exclusive interview to The Times-Picayune.

Whenever actor Brad Pitt is in New Orleans, he gets on his old thrift-store bicycle and tools around the city enjoying the architecture and ambiance. It’s his way of staying in shape. His favorite destination is pedaling across the retractable North Claiborne Avenue Bridge to the Lower 9th Ward to inspect his Make It Right Foundation houses.

No show @ major film Festivals

August 3rd, 2010 • By admin • tree of life

It looks like no major film festivals are getting the trio of Terrence Malick, Brad Pitt and Sean Penn to appear on their red carpet this year. Following the initial Venice and TIFF lineup announcements made last week, and given the absence of Terrence Malick’s highly anticipated “The Tree Of Life” from either festival’s schedule, it’s not surprising to learn that the wait for the film will continue.

TIFF co-director Cameron Bailey spoke to the Toronto Star and revealed that though the festival tried very hard to secure the film, “none of us really expects that to happen at this point.”

Bailey continues, “It would be a lovely surprise, but we’re not holding our breath. We know he’s definitely still working on the film, and he’s tired of being pushed by people. We’ve backed off and Venice has backed off.â€

Duvall: I’ll do McCoys if Brad does

July 30th, 2010 • By admin • Rumored Project

Robert Duvall has revealed he will only appear in a film about two famous feuding American families if Brad Pitt does.

The 79-year-old star of Get Low has revealed Eric Roth has written an excellent script about the Hatfield/McCoy feud and Crazy Heart director Scott Cooper has met with Brad about making the film for Warner Bros.

Robert said he will be on board the project “if Brad Pitt will say yes”.

The dedicated acting veteran revealed: “I don’t work as much as I want. My career is still going great, maybe as good as ever.”

But Brad has recently shaved off his Hatfield and McCoy style beard, which he claimed he had grown out of boredom, to begin filming new baseball move Moneyball.

‘Moneyball’ film crew brings missing buzz back to Oakland Coliseum

July 30th, 2010 • By admin • moneyball

Five hours of waiting, being herded like cattle, and occasionally cheering at a fake baseball game was getting old.

Scores of “Moneyball” extras at the Oakland Coliseum were chilled, fatigued and skeptical about the promise of Hollywood glamour, not to mention irritated about Chex Mix qualifying as “snacks.”

Then he appeared.

At first he resembled another film production guy, walking from the third-base dugout Tuesday toward a group trying to set up a shot of a game that took place eight years ago. The man in the gray pullover, beige pants and wool hat turned to the crowd, displaying the profile that has launched a million tabloids. A woman screamed. Idle chatter vanished.

Someone dropped a cup of Chex Mix.

The Talent had arrived.

While Brad Pitt nonchalantly strolled toward the production crew about 9:30 p.m., the cameras people were forbidden to bring emerged. A couple of hurried, official-looking men moved through the stands, firmly reminding the seated extras that pictures were a no-no.

Brad channels his inner Elvis

July 24th, 2010 • By admin • Megamind

While speculation was swirling that Brangelina were planning to make an appearance at the Comic Con Convention in San Diego this week, it turned out that Pitt left it to his co-stars Tina Fey and Will Ferrell to promote their upcoming Dreamworks animation, “Megamind” on Thursday.

The 46-year-old actor (and internationally-renowned heartthrob) lent his voice to play the role of Metro Mind, a superhero propelled to battle it out against supervillian Megamind in the highly-anticipated, highly satirical family flick.

And according to director Tom McGrath, Pitt channeled his inner Elvis to play the smooth and swanky role.

“When he approached this character, it was like playing off as Elvis Presley to ‘Metroman’ Alice Cooper – Will (Ferrell’s) character,” McGrath told Fox 411′s Pop Tarts. “(Pitt) grabbed onto that, ran with it and played with it. He’s such a physical actor.”
