Brad Pitt Revives Iconic Buzz Cut Ahead of Summer

Los Angeles, California – Brad Pitt was spotted in Los Angeles on Thursday, flaunting a buzz cut that harkens back to his early career days. The 61-year-old Oscar-winning actor has made headlines with his hair transformations over the years, but this latest look is a notable nod to his styles from 2004.

Pitt’s freshly shaved head replaces his longer, salt-and-pepper locks that he sported earlier this year. He was also seen sporting a neatly trimmed stubble, a change from his previous beard. It remains unclear whether this new haircut is for a film role.

In the early 2000s, Pitt’s buzz cut became iconic, recognized particularly during the filming of “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” in 2005. The film not only showcased his close-cropped hairstyle but also introduced him to future wife Angelina Jolie. Alongside his buzz cut, he had longer hair during his time filming classics like “Fight Club” and “Ocean’s Twelve,” reflecting the actor’s tendency to reinvent his look.

Pitt’s hair changes are a regular occurrence. Previously, he was seen with graying hair at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, where he promoted “Wolfs” alongside George Clooney. Clooney himself has also made headlines with a recent hair change, dying his famous silver hair to brunette.

Fans of Pitt are eager to see what inspired this latest hairstyle. Two of his children, Shiloh and Knox, have also embraced changes in their hair, with Shiloh unveiling a bold buzz cut last year. As summer approaches, Pitt’s return to the buzz cut could signal a nostalgic revival for his fans and style watchers alike.
