Why Brad Pitt Vows To ‘Never’ Create Social Media Accounts

Brad Pitt recently revealed that he has no plans to create accounts on social media. The actor also said that he sees no point in using Instagram, Twitter and other online platforms.

“Never gonna happen,” he said. “Well, I never say never. Life’s pretty good without it. I don’t see the point,” he added.

Pitt’s ex-wife, Angelina Jolie, doesn’t have an Instagram account either. But over 10 million supporters are following Jolie’s fan-made account. Jolie, however, has never authorized the user to upload photos of her via @angelinajolieofficial.

Meanwhile, creating social media accounts is not the only thing that Pitt has talked about recently. The “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood” star previously told GQ Australia that he might consider retiring from acting because he wants to focus more on producing.

“I’m behind the camera on the producing side and I enjoy that a lot,” he said. “But I keep doing less and less. I really believe that overall it’s a younger man’s game — not that there aren’t substantial parts for older characters — I just feel, the game itself, it’ll move on naturally. There will be a natural selection to it all.”

Brad Pitt also said that he’s curious to see what the future has in store for the film industry. The actor revealed that he really appreciates the streaming services because more and more quality projects are being released.

“We’re seeing more writers and directors and actors getting a shot,” he said. “It just tells you how many talented people are out there. I like to think there’s room for both. But I could be a dinosaur and not even know it, man. And the comet could be on the way.”

While Pitt was at the Los Angeles premiere of “Once Upon A Time In Hollywood,” People asked him if he’s sure about his retirement plans. But the actor said that he doesn’t know what he'll do yet.

“I don’t know. I enjoy doing other things,” he said. “I think that one day I’ll wake up and organically it’ll be done. Maybe I won’t wake up and that’s why it’ll be done.”
