After graduating from the University of Leeds with a degree in French and History, he went on to write for the Manchester Evening News, the Accrington Observer and the Macclesfield Express.

Brad Pitt is objectively one of the most handsome men on the planet.

Not only that, but thanks to being a Hollywood megastar, he also has one of the most recognisable faces on it too.

But while you'd imagine most people would be able to pick the Ocean's Eleven star out in a line-up, you'd be wrong.

Brad once revealed that some people just don't have a clue who he is, and that he's been mistaken for a couple of other actors in the past.

Speaking to the BBC back in 2019 ahead of the release of Once Upon a Time In Hollywood, the 58-year-old said he's even signed autographs as another star before.

He said: "It's happened to me a few times [mistaken for other people].

"I get Matt [Damon], I get Matt. And I would get Val Kilmer a lot. They'd come up and tell me they loved the performance. And I'd go, 'Yeah, thank you'."

Brad went on: "I've actually signed autographs as Matt."

He then admitted that he made up a Matt Damon signature, adding: "They'll figure it out later."

But it wasn't just Brad who fans got mixed up – his co-star at the time, Leonardo DiCaprio, said he'd also had people coming up to him thinking he was Brad Pitt and Matt Damon.

Margot Robbie also revealed that she was out for a meal once and someone told her they loved her in Sex Education, having mistaken her for Emma Mackey.

If you happen to be a fan of Brad – who isn't? – you will no doubt be over the moon to hear the his big, beautiful face is coming to a big screen near you very soon.

That's because he is starring in upcoming action laden thriller Bullet Train.

Based on the novel written by Kōtarō Isaka, Bullet Train's plot is rather simple: five assassins find themselves on a Japanese bullet train from Tokyo to Morioka, and soon realise their assignments are all in some way connected.

The official synopsis reads: "An original movie event, Bullet Train is a fun, delirious action-thriller from the director of Deadpool 2, David Leitch.

"Brad Pitt headlines an ensemble cast of eclectic, diverse assassins – all with connected yet conflicting objectives – set against the backdrop of a non-stop ride through modern-day Japan."

In his first role since nabbing an Oscar for Once Upon a Time In Hollywood, Brad stars alongside Sandra Bullock, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Joey King, Zazie Beetz, Brian Tyree Henry, Michael Shannon, Logan Lerman and The Last Samurai's Hiroyuki Sanada.

Bullet Train is set to land in cinemas on July 15.
