Susan Sarandon Reflects on Her 'Thelma & Louise' Co-star Brad Pitt: 'He's Not Just a Really Gorgeous Face'

Susan Sarandon is looking back at her time on set with Brad Pitt.

The 74-year-old actress starred in Ridley Scott‘s film Thelma and Louise alongside Brad in 1991 in what was one of his first major film roles.

Susan reflected on the success of the movie and what it was like working with Brad in an interview with Extra on Friday (June 11).

She revealed that she was surprised by Brad‘s performance in the film.

“When I saw the film, the part that really impressed me, in addition to his good looks and great body, was his sense of humor because he really fleshed that part out in a way that wasn’t necessarily in the script,” Susan said. “I thought, ‘Ah, this guy’s interesting, you know, he’s not just a really gorgeous face.’”

In the movie, Brad plays J.D., an attractive young drifter who Geena Davis‘ character Thelma quickly falls for.

“He took it as a character part and as we can see from his career, he really continued to push the envelope in ways that he really didn’t have to when you look like that,” she added.

Brad Pitt has a new project in the works and it recently got a release date!
