Brad Pitt revealed which two colleagues completely brought him out of the socket: his “Thelma & Louise” co-stars.
Even Hollywood greats sometimes become fans – Brad Pitt now proved that with a surprisingly honest confession. The 61-year-old Oscar winner chatted in with Jason Kelce (37) and Travis Kelce (35) about his early career years and unveiled which two colleagues had completely impressed him at the time.
“When I met Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon for the first time, I was really impressed. Yes,” Pitt opened open when he spoke about his “Thelma & Louise” colleagues. However, he added with a smile: “But I quickly recovered from it.”
The breakthrough of his life
The film “Thelma & Louise”, published in 1991, marked Brad Pitt’s first big breakthrough in Hollywood. In it, he embodied the charming JD, who first seduces Thelma and then steals the money of the two friends. A role that should give his life a completely new turn.
The intimate scenes with Geena Davis (69) in particular were remembered by the young star at the time. “Geena was so cute, friendly and sensitive,” enthused Pitt in 2023 in one about the shooting. “I think this love scene lasted two days of shooting. She took care of me.”
Impression at eye level
But not only Pitt was impressed – his experienced colleagues also immediately recognized his potential. Susan Sarandon (78) remembered her first impressions in 2021: “When I saw the film, in addition to his good appearance and great body, his sense of humor impressed me.
The Oscar winner added admiringly: “I thought: ‘Ah, this guy is interesting, he is not only a really beautiful face.'” Sarandon also praised Pitt’s courage to repeatedly take risks in his later career, even though he could have chosen easier ways with his appearance.
Geena Davis still raves about today
Geena Davis was also enthusiastic about her colleague at the time. On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of “Thelma & Louise”: “He just has that certain something. I could already see when I was very talented.” After Pitt’s first Oscar win, she emphasized: “He has created so many incredible things over the years. I don’t find it uncommon for him to be awarded. He is really the ‘star’ of the moment, which is fabulous.”
