Brad Pitt and his girlfriend Angelina Jolie are preparing for a fifth child, the actor revealed at the Venice Film Festival on Sunday.
Pitt, who is promoting his new movie ‘The Assassination Of Jesse James’ at the Italian event, admits he and Jolie are ‘ready’ for another kid.
They are already adoptive parents to Cambodian Maddox, five; Vietnamese Pax Thien, three; Ethiopian Zahara Marley, two; and are biological parents to 15-month-old Shiloh Nouvel.
When asked by an Italian TV reporter whether he and Jolie are ready for a fifth child, Pitt replied, ‘Yeah, we’re ready.’
The 43-year-old also described how much he enjoys being a father-of-four.
He said: ‘It’s the most fun I’ve ever had and also the biggest pain I’ve ever experienced. I love it and can’t recommend it any more highly although sleep is non-existent.’

The tabloid buzz remains for Brangelina. Paparazzi cameras follow Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie wherever they go. Photographers snap away not only on the red carpet but in Central Park, they catch birthday parties for the kids from boats while the family celebrates on the beach and they are constantly snapped on movie sets.

But those movies are failing at the box office. Director Michael Winterbottom and his star actress Angelina just could not get butts in the seats to see “A Mighty Heart” and it was a very important film that told the harrowing tale about kidnapped and murdered Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl and his pregnant wife. Though the film received good reviews but no one wanted to watch.

Jolie and Pitt both contributed to the film. They pushed a ton of energy for an entire week promoting the thing but most people were more interested in Jolie’s lawyers trying to strong arm the press by limiting access and forcing only “positive” stories on Jolie. Brangelina also didn’t want any questions about their kids or any new and possible upcoming kids asked.
But as Brad Pitt tries now to promote a movie with a really long title about Jesse James that has already been shelved for over a year, he suddenly blurts out that the couple are ready for yet another kid. Is this to save the movie?

A cynic might say that they both seem to use these kids when the want publicity, but then ask for privacy when they tire of the paparazzi coverage. Reviews are mixed so far on the new Pitt film and “Babel” already showed that Pitt does not possess the star power to carry moviegoers to the theaters just because he is in a film. Can the tease of a new baby bail out Jesse James?
