Pitt donned an all-white ensemble as he filmed opposite actress Karina Beuthe for an Italian brand
(Web Desk) – Brad Pitt looked youthful as he was pictured filming a commercial for an Italian appliance brand De'Longhi in France on Sunday.
Pitt, 59, was pictured working on the ad for De'Longhi at a vineyard in the Var region in the French Riviera on Saturday, amid his ongoing business relationship with the brand, which manufactures luxury coffee and espresso machines.
According to the Mail Online, the Oscar-winner donned an all-white ensemble as he filmed opposite actress Karina Beuthe for the Treviso, Italy-based company.
Pitt, who played the titular character in 2008's The Curious Case of Benjamin Button – about a man who ages in reverse – wore a button-up collared shirt with off-white slacks and white loafers.
The Fight Club actor donned a pair of brown frame sunglasses and a gold watch as he had his dark brown locks combed to the side on the summer day.
Pitt seemed to be in good spirits as he smiled and chat with crew members on the set of the commercial.
Pitt had the charm turned on as cameras rolled on the spot, as he was seen holding the hand of Beuthe, 53.
The actress, who has worked on a number of international productions, donned a white top and plum colored slacks amid production in the scenic French winery.
The Once Upon a Time in Hollywood star is no stranger to wineries: He and ex-wife Angelina Jolie in 2008 bought the French winery Chateau Miraval, and it has remained a point of contention as they remain hashing out the aftermath of their 2016 split.
Pitt has had a long-running working relationship with De'Longhi: In 2021, he was named the global ambassador for the brand, as Pitt said he's partial to not only the company, but its product and its approach to marketing.
'I wanted to work with De'Longhi because I appreciated their approach for the campaign - they have confidence in their product and want to celebrate the artistry of their Italian heritage without overdoing it,' Pitt told People in September of 2021.
He praised 'the elegance, design and harmony that the brand naturally embodies,' as well as the engineering involved.
He told the publication: 'De'Longhi's attention to detail makes me appreciate the brand even more. That sort of thoughtfulness is a distinctive value of Italian design - how you design something for the people who are going to experience it.'
Pitt noted that 'certain details that might not be immediately obvious, but in the end have a profound effect on you and your life.'
Pitt said the company's state-of-the-art products have led him to take it slower with his usual coffee routine.
'The European, specifically Italian idea about creating a sort of ceremony associated with coffee,' he said. 'I like that idea… of sitting down on my couch and really enjoying my cup of coffee.'
He told the outlet, 'To me coffee is not just a drink. It creates connections, it allows you to carve a moment for yourself; to pause and enjoy the moment.'
Pitt said that he found 'this ability to stop, appreciate the moment and life in general - to be typically European and to me - truly inspiring.'
In addition to his efforts promoting De'Longhi, Pitt has a number of projects he's working on as summer season commences, according to his iMDb page.
He's working alongside his Ocean's 11 costar George Clooney on the Jon Watts-directed thriller Wolfs, and is also linked to a project with director Joseph Kosinski about Formula One. He's a producer on both projects as well.
He is also linked to producing a number of other projects in various stages of development, including the TV series 3 Body Problem, a horror film titled Black Hole; and a thriller titled The Tiger starring Alexander Skarsgård.
