Brad Pitt Covers 'Interview' Magazine October/November 2012

Brad Pitt looks dapper as can be in the photo spread for his Interview magazine cover story for the October/November 2012 issue.

Here is what the 48-year-old Killing Them Softly actor had to share with interviewer Guy Ritchie:

On who he is supporting in the election: “Well, I just want to avoid confusion with this film and say I’m a big supporter of Obama, and I think he’s our best answer for the next four years.”

On his future in film: “I’d rather be behind the camera. As a producer, obviously, you’re part of a team that brings the story to the screen. It wouldn’t be there if you didn’t champion it or if you and a group of people weren’t championing it. I like that.”

On choosing films to work on: “You know, right now, this is like a clean-up-the-loose-ends-and-tidy-up-the-place kind of year, which I also look at as a refill kind of year. I’m not good at going back-to-back-to-back-to-back with movies, and it’s just now that I’m starting to get my bearings again and a flavor for what’s next. But it can’t be something repetitive that I’ve done before. I’m bored to death by that, and when I attempt things like that, it never works�”I end up hurting the movie. So it’s just about discovery now and finding something new that’s interesting to me.”

On his film Killing Them Softly: “Well, what Andrew [Dominik] wanted to do with this film was interesting: He wanted to talk about America�”and America as a business�”but he wanted to hide it within this low-end crime drama. We in America have some grand ideals�”and some very strong ideals�”but a lot of times, those ideals are used for marketing.”
