Brad Pitt appeared to be in a pretty great mood on Monday, promoting Allied in Shanghai, China. The visit marked his first promotional appearance for a movie in China since reportedly being banned over his 1997 film, Seven Years in Tibet, due to its portrayal of harsh Chinese rule in the Himalayan region.
The 52-year-old actor looked svelte in an all-black outfit, looking youthful as always.
Pitt signed autographs for fans for 40 minutes, and questions were strictly limited to the film itself, and not about his recent divorce from Angelina Jolie.
"It's a nod to the classic films of the past," Pitt said about his new romantic thriller co-starring actress Marion Cotillard. "It's got good set pieces, good sense of action, but ultimately it's one of those really strong romantic thrillers that many of the classics are based in, so it's kind of got everything. We think it's one for everyone, it's why we wanted to bring it here. So, it's great to get started."
Pitt also acknowledged Chinese cinema.
"It's a great honor for us to start with the film here," he said. "It's amazing for us. Your film industry has been exploding in the best of ways that we have great respect for, and to have our film play in this arena is a real, again, a real honor for us and we think we've got something that you'll really like. So, we just hope you enjoy it and thank you so much."
