Brad Pitt is one of the most successful actors in Hollywood, but his movie days may soon be over.
"I consider myself on my last leg," he told GQ. "This last semester or trimester."
Per the outlet, Pitt said he was thinking carefully about the final stage of his film career. "What is this section gonna be? And how do I wanna design that?" the 58-year-old actor added in the interview.
For now, that includes the film "Bullet Train," in which he plays an unlucky assassin who is pulled back into a job on a train traveling from Tokyo to Kyoto. Based on Kotaro Isaka's novel, the action-comedy flick is due to be released in US cinemas on August 5.
However, if Pitt is indeed putting his acting career behind him soon, film directors like Quentin Tarantino — who worked with him on "Once Upon A Time In Hollywood" and "Inglourious Basterds" — will be sure to miss him.
In the same GQ profile piece, Tarantino compared Pitt's star quality with the likes of Paul Newman and Robert Redford.
"He's one of the last remaining big-screen movie stars," he told the outlet. "It's just a different breed of man. And frankly, I don't think you can describe exactly what that is because it's like describing starshine."
