Actor Brad Pitt Joins the Ranks of the Mustache Fraternity
Brad Pitt is currently filming "The Adventures of Cliff Booth," a long-rumored spin-off to Quentin Tarantino's "Once Upon a Time in... Hollywood." The actor has debuted a new blond mustache and shaggy hair look, reprising his role as stuntman Cliff Booth.
Pitt's mustache is a modern interpretation of a classic tough guy aesthetic, reminiscent of a '70s casting call. It has been described as a full, Tom Selleck-esque style, marking a significant return to a dapper look for Pitt that echoes facial hair trends from past decades among A-list actors.
The mustache has generated interest and discussion about the appeal of a well-groomed mustache, and it has significantly elevated the trend in menswear. During filming, Pitt's appearance resembled a Miami mafioso, with mustaches, flared trousers, and cowboy boots trending in the fashion world.
Pitt's mustache could be a nod to classic action film characters, and it has been suggested that it helps visually reinforce the character's rugged, yet charismatic persona, aligning with the film's tone as a throwback continuation of Tarantino’s 2019 world.
The evolution of mustache trends among A-list actors has seen a resurgence of prominent, well-groomed facial hair. Pitt’s new mustache complements his shaggy, blond wig, which evokes his roles from the nineties, such as in Legends of the Fall and Interview with the Vampire, blending a timeless Hollywood charm with contemporary style.
Brad Pitt, at 61, is still able to make facial hair feel like a cultural reset, much like Pedro Pascal, Jacob Elordi, and Timotheé Chalamet, who have also experimented with facial hair. Whether the mustache appears in the final cut of "The Adventures of Cliff Booth" or not, it has reminded everyone of the appeal of a true statement mustache.
"The Adventures of Cliff Booth" is positioned as a standalone, throwback action epic, and Pitt's mustache has the potential to engage fans of the original film by recapturing the essence of Pitt’s iconic image while serving the character’s realistic stuntman persona on screen.
