Brad Pitt recently revealed that for several years he has been fighting a rare disease that makes him seem unfriendly to others since it does not allow him to recognize people's faces.
"No one believes me!" the 58-year-old actor told GQ magazine. His condition is so unusual that he even expressed his desire to meet someone else who is also going through something similar. "I want to meet someone who experiences the same thing," he said.
Brad Pitt was referring to prosopagnosia, also known as "easy blindness." A cognitive disorder that consists of the inability to recognize faces or differentiate features, even of people in the closest environment, such as friends or family.
The publication stated, however, that this disease has not been diagnosed by a doctor in the performer of films such as 'Seven', 'Once Upon a Time In Hollywood' and 'Fight Club'. However, he believes he has her.
Brad Pitt in the last part of his career
In the same interview, Brad Pitt made an announcement that will leave more than one perplexed: he is about to end his acting career. “I consider myself on my last leg,” he told writer Ottessa Moshfegh, who she spoke to for GQ. Then, he pointed out that this retreat would take place within the next semester or quarter, and that he has been thinking carefully about what his next steps will be.
Precisely, during the second half of the year, 'Bullet Train' will be released in August, and 'Babylon' will be released in December. The first is an action-packed film, like most from director David Leitch; while the second marks the return of Damien Chazelle, Oscar winner with 'La La Land'.
Although he does not mention it in the interview, it is very likely that Brad Pitt's future lies in film production, something he has been doing for nearly twenty years when he founded Plan B Entertainment, with which he has produced films such as 'Troy', in which he acted, or the Oscar winners for Best Picture '12 Years a Slave' or 'Moonlight'.
He is also behind 'Blonde', a film with Ana de Armas that premieres in September on Netflix, about the life of Marilyn Monroe; and he has been working on 'Women Talking', an adaptation of the novel of the same name, by Miriam Toews.
