Brad Pitt has laughed off recent comments he made about his movie career being on its "last leg" saying he "really" has to "work on my phrasing".
The 58-year-old actor sent fans into a frenzy following a recent interview with GQ in which seemed to announce his retirement from the movie industry.
In the magazine article, which was published in June, he said: "I consider myself on my last leg, this last semester or trimester," he said at the time. "What is this section gonna be? And how do I wanna design that?"
Pitt has now clarified his comments and admits he used a poor choice of words.
Setting the record straight in an interview with Deadline, Pitt said: "I really have to work on my phrasing. I was just saying, 'I'm past middle age and I want to be specific about how I spend those last things however they may be.’"
He added: "I've never been a five year plan kind of guy. I’m just, whatever feels right for the day. I still operate that way."
