(Crankers) Brad Pitt fans might have been a little bit scared when they found out the famous actor, 60, suffered a “medical emergency.” Rest assured, Pitt is perfectly fine and it was a fictional situation where he was filming a scene for an upcoming movie. The scene depicts Bradd Pitt ‘fainting’ on a racetrack and anyone who saw this might have been freaked out if they didn’t know it was for a movie.
However, there’s a reason for it. Brad Pitt was filming a movie on the Las Vegas Grand Prix and he looked off-balance, then fell/fainted – but it was onto a padded matt, and he is perfectly fine. This was all part of a scene for the Formula One film that’s expected to come out in 2025, directed by Joseph Kosinski.
If you were worried about Brad Pitt, then I guess it’s safe to exhale and get excited for his new movie – if you’re into racing, or Brad Pitt. Either way, most of the movies he’s in are pretty good, so I’ll probably see this one as well.
To make things even funnier about the fictional Brad Pitt “medical emergency” situation, they issued a mock statement to address it, as reported on Mirror: “While Sonny [his name in the movie] is otherwise stable, he will not participate in tomorrow’s race as he focuses on recovery. The entire team stands behind him, and we will provide updates when available. Joshua will race solo tomorrow, carrying the team forward.”
