Brad Pitt is Billy Beane

Brad Pitt gets down to business at Smashbox Studios in Hollywood and then hops on a private jet at Burbank Airport on Tuesday (June 2) in Calif.

The 45-year-old actor is set to star in Moneyball, which begins shooting on June 11. The flick centers on the major-league’s Oakland A’s and their general manager Billy Beane (Pitt) who attempts to draft players to the team using computer-generated analysis.

As producer Michael DeLuca tells LA Times, “If you try to think of a movie star who could embody someone like Beane – a former athlete who’s an incredibly physical specimen with movie good looks — you pretty much get to Brad Pitt right away.”

Their home base in in NOLA. NYC is where they were staying because Angelina was filming there. Now it’s on to LA/oakland where Brad will be filming. They don’t move there they just go there on location. It’s hard to keep track when your IQ ia 10. I hope you can get it in your head now.

Why is he leaving? isn’t Angelina’s birthday coming? I thought only Jon from Jon&Kate plus 8 would miss his wife’s birthday. Looks to me Brad is doing the same to Angelina.

Though he looks hot and i love his shade. And he was so funny in his joke to Mel in Spike’s show.
