Brad Pitt Opens Up About His New Look and Teases New Role

Published: June 17, 2025

Brad Pitt is dishing the details behind his latest look, and it's all about his new role!

In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE at the New York City premiere of his new movie F1 on June 16, the actor, 61, revealed why he has brought back his iconic 2004 buzz cut.

"I just finished a job," Pitt teases. "It's for a character we did."

On the red carpet, Pitt teamed his shaved head with a navy blue double-breasted suit, a crisp white shirt, and a satin pocket square.

He was first spotted rocking the dramatic cut while driving around Los Angeles last month. He was also pictured with the look in his GQ summer issue cover that was released at the end of May.

Pitt was joined at the premiere by his girlfriend Ines de Ramon, with the couple making a rare appearance on the red carpet.

De Ramon, 32, showed her support for her partner in a sheer halter top and long, feathered skirt. She accessorized the look with a white Chanel purse.

Elsewhere during his chat with PEOPLE, Pitt opened up about his favorite memories from filming the movie, in which he plays a Formula 1 driver called Sonny Hayes who is getting back in the driver's seat after nearly 30 years.

"I got a lot," Pitt tells PEOPLE. "I got a lot, but every time I got in the car, these tracks are just like hallowed ground. Silverstone. Spa in Belgium was the most memorable. Abu Dhabi. We really got spoiled."

The star also shared what it was like having to switch from driving at super high speeds in the movie to driving in everyday life.

"There's a strange calm in the car when you're hitting everything," he says. "You're hitting your breaking points and hitting your turning points. It's such a piece. I can't even describe it. Yeah, it's incredible."
