Brad Pitt to the rescue!
The actor played a real life superhero when he saved an 11-year-old from getting crushed by a mob of fans in Gran Canaria, Spain.
The heroic scene happened on Sunday when the dad of seven spotted the young girl pitted up against a fence outside of the set where he's filming the WWII flick, "Allied."
When Pitt arrived, members of the surging crowd, who had been waiting hours for the actor to appear, started taking snaps and shouting his name.

That’s when he saw the young girl, named Claudia, struggling to stand on her own among the excited crowd, La Provincia, a Spanish news outlet, reported.
According to the news outlet, she was treated on the scene by a medical team, but didn't appear to have any injuries.
The girl, who seemed anxious, then stayed with Pitt and the movie's crew on the backlot "until she calmed down."

Her mother, María Dolores Hernández, told Spain's El Diario in Spanish that she "sought help from the American star, because (he) was the only one who paid attention to what was happening to her daughter in the front row."

The 52-year-old, who is married to Oscar-winner Angelina Jolie, later posed for a photo with the young fan.
