Brad Pitt is one of the most popular leading men in Hollywood, with a career spanning over three decades. He has won two Oscars and has been nominated for five more, bringing to life memorable roles in a wide range of films, from “12 Monkeys” and “The Big Short” to “Fight Club” and “World War Z”. However, despite taking on a variety of parts, there is one constant thread throughout Pitt’s career: his on-screen snacking habits. In over 60 of his movies, Pitt has consistently chowed down, munching on everything from mundane snacks to obscure and even disgusting treats.
Pitt’s love of eating on screen is not limited to casual moments; he has even used his snacking habits to inform his character’s personalities and behaviors. In “Ocean’s Eleven”, for example, Pitt’s character is depicted as a busy and always-on-the-go individual, always grabbing something to eat on the run. This adds a layer of realism to the character, as people often multitask or fidget in real-life situations.
Pitt himself has explained that he enjoys doing this on screen, citing his “grazing” nature as a reason for his love of snacking. He has also stated that eating helps him to get into character, allowing him to tap into his character’s emotions and behaviors. Fans have even pointed out that Pitt’s movies tend to perform well at the box office and receive high critical acclaim when he is depicted eating on screen.
In addition to adding a layer of realism to his performances, Pitt’s snacking habits have also become a fun Easter egg for fans. For example, he has eaten a turkey leg in five of his films, and has even indulged in unusual treats like caviar and wasabi peas. With his love of snacking showing no signs of slowing down, it’s likely that fans will continue to enjoy Pitt’s on-screen gastronomic adventures for years to come.
