Brad Pitt has sold his majority stake in his production company, Plan B.
Is Brad Pitt (59) retiring from Hollywood? The Oscar winner has just sold the majority of his successful production company Plan B, which he founded with ex-wife Jennifer Aniston (53), to a French media empire. According to CNBC, 60 percent now belong to Mediawan. Pitt is said to be richer by several hundred million. An exact amount is not known. The sum should not be higher than half a billion.
According to an insider from the “New York Post”, Pitt’s desire to gradually withdraw from the industry is behind this: “He will probably continue to be in front of the camera from time to time, but will not accept any other business projects. It’s a kind of semi-retirement where he can decide for himself how much he still works.” Pitt has also worked as a producer up until now. He was responsible for over 60 films.
Brad Pitt wants to move to France
At least on screen, the Hollywood star will remain with his fans. He already has the next project in the works. It is a Formula 1 film that Lewis Hamilton (38) is also working on as a consulting producer.
The actor already knows what he wants to do with his newfound time. A second acquaintance wants to know that Pitt plans to move to France: “There he can focus on his vineyard, his art and his self-designed furniture. He just wants to live in peace.” In the short term, however, his film career is still important enough for him to continue working as an actor. (cth)
