In the interview we did not see coming, Brad Pitt<\/a> has opened up and candidly discussed everything from sobriety to depression in the wake of his divorce from Angelina Jolie. Speaking with\u00a0GQ<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em>he was also quick to mention retirement from acting after 36 years and 158 titles to his name.<\/p>\n

\u201cI consider myself on my last leg, this last semester or trimester,\u201d Pitt told the publication. \u201cWhat is this section gonna be? And how do I wanna design that?\u201d<\/p>\n

Hailing from Missouri, Pitt relocated to Los Angeles at 22. His first acting credit was in 1987 for the television series\u00a0Hunk <\/em>before he\u00a0dabbled in small roles on TV for several years. He scored his first major movie role in 1991 as ‘J.D.’ in\u00a0Thelma & Louise\u00a0<\/em>before going on to star in blockbusters such as\u00a0Fight Club, Oceans Twelve, The Big Short,\u00a0<\/em>and more recently,\u00a0Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood. <\/em>He has also produced for projects such as Ad Astra\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0Vice.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

While Pitt is confident in his decision to retire, he noted to the magazine that it will certainly be an adjustment. \u201cI\u2019m one of those creatures that speaks through art. I just want to always make. If I\u2019m not making, I\u2019m dying in some way,” he said. Be right back, about to watch every Brad Pitt film.<\/p>\n

The 58-year-old also revealed that in light of an intense custody battle with his ex-wife, with whom he shares six children, he has been hiding out in his Hollywood Hills home as a “lone wolf.” \u201cI always felt very alone in my life, alone growing up as a kid, alone even out here, and it\u2019s really not till recently that I have had a greater embrace of my friends and family,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Pitt joined in on a conversation with Gwyneth Paltrow recently for her wellness blog\u00a0Goop\u00a0<\/em>to discuss their relationship 25 years after they split<\/a>. When reflecting on their long friendship, he concluded, \u201cAnd I do love you.” Paltrow responded, \u201cI love you so much.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1627,"featured_media":59230,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[23,16],"yoast_head":"\nBrad Pitt May Be Retiring from His Acting
