Brad Pitt’s recent abstinence in movies

 

The before international sex symbol has now mellowed: Unlike films in his early career who built his reputation of women’s desirable object, his last films do not contain scenes of a sexual nature.

Tristan, the character played by Brad in the movie “Legends of the Fall” (1994) is impossible to forget. A man full of strength and sensuality that had a torrid love affair with his sister-in-law, played by Julia Ormond. In “Troy” (2004), “The Fight Club” (1999), “Thelma and Louise” (1991), “Meet Joe Black?” (1998) and “Ocean’s Twelve” (2004) are some examples of how Brad Pitt shared bed with his “lovers”, undressing shamelessly to the delight of his fans. An erotic myth was born. He was one of the world’s most desirable actors, always present in the lists of the most beautiful men.

But a movie has changed the course of his love life and his film career. Angelina Jolie appeared as Mrs. Smith in 2005, shattering Brad’s established standards. Since then, only his torso appears in movies and he do not shares the bed with his fictional couples on the big screen anymore, except for “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” in 2008.

His sex symbol image has completely disappeared

“Burn After Reading” (2008), “Kill them softly” (2012) and “Inglourious Basterds” (2009) or in other words, movies in which he leaves aside “man meets woman” concept to explore other areas as a faithful and loving husband, great father or professional wrestler has rebuilt his image in public eyes.

The reason is explained by one of his friends in a recent interview with “Esquire.” “Brad tried to avoid doing any intimate scene with another woman since he met Angelina,” he says. Many rumours spread on the fact that she’s not letting him get too close to her co-stars, because this is how their story began and she is afraid that they snatch him from her the same way.
This “problem” was absent during his relationship with Jennifer Aniston, as Angelina Jolie “chooses” the current roles of her husband.
