    Brad Pitt News: Actor’s New Movie Wolfs Premieres

    Brad Pitt has returned to the big screen with pal George Clooney in the action-comedy Wolfs. The 60-year-old Pitt portrays Nick, a professional fixer, who is forced to work with his rival in covering up a high-profile crime despite both men preferring to act alone.

    Wolfs first premiered at the 2024 Venice Film Festival, where it received a 5-minute ovation. After a week-long run in select theaters September 20, the movie began streaming on Apple TV+ September 27.

    Wolfs marks the first time Pitt has shared the screen with Clooney in 16 years, with the pair last working together in the 2008 movie Burn After Reading. Pitt told Deadline the new movie was the perfect project for the two actors to reunite.

    “We kind of figured there’s gotta be a good reason to get back in a film together, something we feel like we could build upon what we’ve done before,” he said. “But also, I gotta say, as I get older, working with the people that I just really enjoy spending time with has really become important to me.” A Wolfs sequel is already in the works.

    Character biography

    Doug Ross was raised by his mother, Sarah, after his father, Ray, abandoned their family. In Season 1, Ross revealed to a patient that he had a son, and he tells nurse Wendy Goldman that he doesn't know his son's name as he's never seen him. Not much else is known about Doug's past.

    Doug's estranged son was a large part of the reason that he became a pediatrician. In 2019, ER executive producer John Wells shared, "Part of the reason why he wanted to become a pediatrician and be around children and care for children is because of his guilt that he wasn't the person he wanted to be when he had a child as a young man.

    The Midnight Sky

    Wolfs

    by George Wolf (no relation)

    Watch the trailer for Wolfs, and you hear Sinatra front and center.

    But watch the movie, and it’s Sade time, baby.

    I get that the Apple marketing department wants you to remember the fun of Clooney and Pitt’s Ocean’s Eleven franchise, but this new venture crafts its effective charm from a more seedy vibe.

    New York D.A. Margaret (Amy Ryan) has a problem. She’s covered with blood in a swanky hotel with a much younger man (Austin Abrams), and he’s half naked on the floor with no pulse.

    Plus, that’s a lot of drugs.

    Margaret calls a fixer (Clooney), who promises to make it all go away. But it’s Pam (Frances McDormand) running the hotel and she has her own man (Pitt), who shows up with identical claims of problem solving.

    The rival lone wolves have no intention of teaming up, but fate has other ideas. So it’s going to be a long and bumpy night.

    Years before Reynolds and Jackman started their good natured ribbing, Clooney and Pitt owned the “fun frenemy” schtick, and writer/director Jon Watts reminds us that their charisma still has plenty of life.

    The deadpan sparring is a mischievous hoot, as Margaret’s Man and Pam’s Man each strive to be too cool for competition while secretly pining for the other’s respect. Watts (Cop Car, the Spider-Man “Home” franchise, TV’s The Old Man) creates a nice counterbalance via the uncool “Kid” (Abrams is terrific) and backs up the snappy dialog with understated visual gags (one Man slowly peering around the corner at embarrassing moments) and some pieces of stylish, well-staged action.

    There’s a winning air of confidence to the film, and it’s not just from two A-listers secure in their movie star status. Wolfs isn’t trying to re-invent any genres, but Watts displays plenty of skill with plot twisty intrigue.

    These fixers aren’t leading a
