Brad Pitt says he was ‘forced’ to be part of 'Troy'

Brad Pitt, one of the most sought-after stars in Hollywood has made some blockbuster films that brought him to the top. 

However, the 55-year-old Fight Club actor is not a big fan of every project he has done as he expressed his regret at starring in the 2004-released film Troy, adding that he had been ‘forced’ to be part of the film.

“I had to do Troy because — I guess I can say all this now — I pulled out of another movie and then had to do something for the studio. So I was put in Troy,” he said to The New York Times.

“It wasn’t painful, but I realised that the way the movie was being told was not how I wanted it to be. I made my own mistakes in it,” he added.

“Every shot was like, here’s the hero! There was no mystery. So about that time I made a decision that I was only going to invest in quality stories, for lack of a better term. It was a distinct shift that led to the next decade of films,” he went on to say.
