Citing a “family situation” after news of his divorce proceedings from Angelina Jolie recently emerged, Brad Pitt has canceled a red carpet appearance for Terrence Malick’s new film Voyage of Time.
Pitt narrates Malick’s feature that examines the origins of the universe and of life on Earth.
“Terrence’s Voyage of Time is an incredibly beautiful and unique experiential IMAX film for children and families chronicling the birth of time,” said Pitt.
He continued: “I’m very grateful to be part of such a fascinating and educational project, but I’m currently focused on my family situation and don’t want to distract attention away from this extraordinary film, which I encourage everyone to see.”
COSMOS: A SPACETIME ODYSSEY: More than three decades after Carl Sagan’s groundbreaking and iconic series, “Cosmos: A Personal Voyage,” it’s time once again to set sail for the stars. The Cosmic Calendar, on which all of time has been compressed into a year-at-a-glance calendar, from the Big Bang to the moment humans first make their appearance on the planet is introduced in the all-new “Standing Up in the Milky Way” Series Premiere episode of COSMOS: A SPACETIME ODYSSEY airing Sunday, March 9 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX and simultaneously across multiple U.S. Fox networks, including National Geographic Channel, FX, FXX, FXM, FOX Sports 1, FOX Sports 2, Nat Geo Wild, Nat Geo Mundo and FOX Life.
The director and Pitt had worked together on a much better film, the Oscar-nominated The Tree of Life, in 2011.
A week ago it was reported that Angelina Jolie Pitt filed for divorce from the actor after 12 years together. Robert Offer, an attorney for Jolie Pitt said that the decision to divorce was made “for the health of the family.”
