Brad Pitt: From Hollywood A-Lister to Sega Superfan?

In a recent interview, Brad Pitt admitted that sometimes he thinks about retiring from acting to play old Sega games all day. While some fans were shocked to hear this revelation from the Academy Award-winning actor, others couldn’t help but laugh at the idea of Pitt trading in red carpets for controller buttons. He even went as far as saying that he’s ready to trade in his Oscar for a Genesis. But is this really such a surprise? After all, Pitt has always been open about his love for video games. In fact, he even admitted to playing games on set during breaks while filming. So, it’s not hard to imagine him indulging in a little Sonic the Hedgehog action after a long day on set. He even said he would rather be hanging out with Tails than making movies.

The Nostalgia Factor

But what is it about Sega that has caught Pitt’s attention? Perhaps it’s the nostalgia factor. After all, who doesn’t have fond memories of spending hours playing classic games like Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda? Or maybe it’s the challenge of mastering those tricky boss battles. He even said that he’s been trying to beat Dr. Robotnik for years but still can’t do it.

Sega Hoarding

Whatever the reason, it’s clear that Pitt is a true Sega fan. In the interview, he even shared that he has a collection of old Sega consoles and games. He even said that he’s been hoarding Sega games like they’re going out of style. And who knows, maybe one day we’ll see him star in a movie about a retired actor who becomes a professional gamer. He even said that he’s been practising for a role as Sonic.

“I’ve got a lot of gas left in the tank, no doubt about it, but there’s just a lot of old Genesis games I’ve not given their proper time over the years, and I think about that more and more.”

Of course, fans and critics had plenty to say about Pitt’s statement. Some joked that he should start streaming his Sega sessions on Twitch, while others wondered if he would be able to resist the allure of modern games like Fortnite and Call of Duty. He even said that he’s been considering a career change from Hollywood to E-sports.
